Baez also starred as 'The Woman in White' in the film "Renaldo and Clara" (1978), directed by Bob Dylan and filmed during the Rolling Thunder Revue. Dylan and Baez toured together again in 1984 along with Carlos Santana. Baez discussed her relationship with Dylan in Martin Scorsese's documentary film "No Direction Home" (2005), and in the PBS "American Masters" biography of Baez, "How Sweet the Sound" (2009). Baez wrote and composed at least three songs that were specifically about Dylan.
When the Ship Comes In When the Ship Comes In "When the Ship Comes In" is a folk music song by Bob Dylan, released on his third album, "The Times They Are a-Changin'", in 1964. Joan Baez states in the documentary film "No Direction Home" that the song was, more or less, inspired by a hotel clerk who refused to allow Dylan a room due to his "unwashed" appearance (he was not famous outside of the folk movement at this time). The song then grew into a sprawling epic allegory about vanquishing the oppressive "powers that be". Another inspiration was the Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill song,
