Deliver Me From Nowhere Review
A surprisingly faithful portrait of Bruce Springsteen, starring Jeremy Allen White, digs into Springsteen's psyche and finds plenty of fan-friendly gold.
The Nebraska-era biopic tells the story of a man making a record in his bedroom, a story that stays close to the small-scale chapter of Springsteen's life. Jeremy Allen White's portrayal of Bruce is aided by his ability to convey the character's paralysis due to newfound fame and his complicated relationship with his father.
“Man makes record in bedroom” does not sound like a movie pitch to get Hollywood salivating
- Jeremy Allen White's portrayal of Bruce Springsteen is magnetic and authentic, particularly in scenes where he rocks out with the E Street Band and communes with his guitar and TASCAM.
Author's summary: A faithful biopic of Bruce Springsteen's life.
