Bruce Springsteen fan spots a condiment howler in new biopic that *no one else* could have seen
A Bruce Springsteen fan pointed out a minor, if hilarious, inaccuracy in the musician's biopic, Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere.
Deliver Me From Nowhere is in theaters now, and it mostly seems pretty factually faithful to Springsteen’s experience recording the album Nebraska. But any work of biography is at least partly a work of fiction,
Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' explores Bruce Springsteen's professional relationship and deep bond with his longtime manager, Jon Landau. Here's everything to know about where Jon Landau is now.
The new biopic gets a lot right about the Boss and the making of “Nebraska.” But there are elements that were made up for the film.
Springsteen’s manager Jon Landau, played by Jeremy Strong, represents the worst of this. When Springsteen’s sound inevitably clashes with record producers expecting his rockstar persona, Jon simply acts as the mouthpiece for Nebraska’s vision. Outside of that, he is boring and aimless, not helped by Strong’s uninspired performance.
The film challenges the biopic formula with its bare bones story and lack of hit songs, yet manages to create something meaningful, purposeful and ultimately honest.
Bruce Springsteen’s album Nebraska offered a very personal and painful glimpse into his creative soul. The haunting acoustic records were designed to reject norms and embrace a creation that would emerge from the standard den of music.
