Review: Bruce Springsteen Biopic Delivers Authenticity and Artistry

The biopic "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" breaks away from conventional biopic storytelling.

Instead of a decades-spanning narrative, the film focuses on a pivotal year in Bruce Springsteen's life, during which he wrote his folk album "Nebraska".

Bruce Springsteen, known to many as "The Boss", rose to fame in the 1970s with his lively personality and heartland rock genre.

His music combined energetic musicality with poetic lyrics, addressing working-class issues, and reached new heights with his 1980 album "The River".

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

"Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" upends the conventions of the modern biopic.

Author's summary: Biopic breaks conventions with intimate look at Springsteen's life.
