Deliver Me From Nowhere Review
A surprisingly faithful portrait of Bruce Springsteen, starring Jeremy Allen White, explores the artist's psyche and uncovers fan-friendly moments.
The biopic, set in the Nebraska era, stays true to the small-scale nature of this chapter in Springsteen's story, thanks to Scott Cooper's direction and White's portrayal of Springsteen as a man struggling with newfound fame and a complicated relationship with his father.

Jeremy Allen White's performance is magnetic, bringing authenticity to scenes such as rocking out with the E Street Band and creating the quiet, strange songs of Nebraska.
