One detail discussed in "The Making of A Complete Unknown" makes Edward Norton's A Complete Unknown performance and Oscar nomination more impressive.

Anyone aiming to understand folk musician Pete Seeger and his undying belief that music can make the world a better place should read this Inquirer essay from 1998.

Acclaimed Boston actor Edward Norton has been a nominee three times at the Oscars before. However, the "Fight Club" star has never won an Academy Award in his decades-long career in Hollywood. This year's awards show could change that.

Edward Norton, who grew up in Columbia and is the grandson of its founder James Rouse, is nominated for an Oscar in the category of Best Supporting Actor for his work in "A Complete Unknown," the film that traces the early rise of musician Bob Dylan.

Kieran Culkin has continued his award season success streak as he was named the winner of the best supporting actor category at the 2025 Oscars.

That remains the case in Norton’s newest film, A Complete Unknown, which sees the 55-year-old from Boston take on the role of folk singer Pete Seeger. And the Academy Awards agrees.

Acclaimed Boston actor Edward Norton has been a nominee three times ... for the fourth time for his role as folk musician Pete Seeger in the Bob Dylan biopic, "A Complete Unknown."
