Review of "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere"
Film critic Harlan Jacobson reviews the new biopic "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere". Despite other states trying to attract the film, it was shot in New Jersey, thanks to tax incentives from the state's film office.
Director Scott Cooper faced a challenge in creating a unique rocker biopic that would keep the audience engaged for nearly two hours. As Harlan Jacobson notes, Cooper succeeded in this task.
He does that though musician and chef stories are everywhere; they’ve shoved other genre characters offscreen to claim the fantasy life of young Americans about a life inside art.
