Review

A star rating of 3 out of 5.

Terry Staunton

Bruce Springsteen goes back to basics in an intimate biopic that explores the singer's troubled past as he confronts questions about his future. Jeremy Allen White stars as the "Boss", opening a can of analytical worms while writing and recording songs for the low-key 1982 album Nebraska, a far cry from the amped-up anthems of his previous LPs. As he delves deeper into the creative process, he's reminded of an often unhappy childhood and difficult relationship with his father (Stephen Graham), while in the present day his manager and mentor (Jeremy Strong) strives to shield him from the hits-hungry demands of the music biz. Director Scott Cooper follows author Warren Zanes's acclaimed book of the same title relatively closely, the film working best in its quieter, more subdued moments. Blessed by subtle performances from the leads (although White is less convincing when called upon to be Springsteen as a louder, strutting stage presence), it's an eloquent, if occasionally flawed, film about self-examination and the power of music as a form of therapy.
