Review: Bruce Springsteen Biopic

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

Instead of a decades-spanning journey, the film focuses on a pivotal year in Bruce Springsteen's life as he writes his folk album "Nebraska".

Bruce Springsteen, known to many as "The Boss", rose to fame in the 1970s with his heartland rock genre and poetic lyrics that addressed working-class issues.

His most popular album at the time, "The River" (1980), showcased his exuberant musicality and propelled him to new heights.

After the "The River" tour ended, Springsteen returned to New Jersey, where he rented a house in Colts Neck, marking a significant halt in his life.

"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.
