Review: Bruce Springsteen Biopic

The biopic "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" breaks away from conventional biopic norms, focusing on a single year in Bruce Springsteen's life as he creates his folk album "Nebraska".

Bruce Springsteen, known to many as "The Boss", gained fame in the 1970s with his energetic personality and heartland rock genre. His album "The River" (1980) was particularly successful, addressing working-class issues through poetic lyrics and lively music.

Instead, the film provides an intimate look at just over one year of the musician’s life as he writes the left-turn folk album “Nebraska.”

After the "The River" tour ended, Springsteen returned to New Jersey, renting a house in Colts Neck, where his life took a pause.

Author's summary: Biopic delivers authentic look at Springsteen's life.
