This is a very cool youtube video (slide show) of photographs of Patti
Smith, using her 2007 cover of Dylan's song ''Changing Of The Guards''
as the music:

Patti Smith is such a cool person to look at it.
As an aside, I never heard of this Dylan song before.  Here is a video
of Dylan performing it live in 1978. According to youtube comment, he's
never performed it since.

One last thing.  Everybody should watch the Netflix show from Feb 2019
called Russian Doll.  Not just an amazing mini-series, but also a great
example of how powerful music can be to enhance a show.  Especially if
you like Harry Nilsson.  His song "Gotta Get Up" is a feature of the
show.  Unfortunately, they spent so much of their budget repeating that
song on almost every episode, that they couldn't afford Velvet
Underground songs that they also wanted. But it was well worth it! I
wonder how many people who never heard of Harry, learned about him from
watching that show. :)
