SYNOPSIS:
The film chronicles Bruce Springsteen's journey in creating his 1982 album Nebraska, which coincided with the recording of Born in the USA with the E Street Band. Prior to its release, Springsteen opted to put aside one of his most acclaimed tracks, Born in the USA. Portrayed by Jeremy Allen White in writer/director Scott Cooper's Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, this decision stemmed from “The Boss” (as he would soon be called) feeling anxious about the prospect of skyrocketing to fame. He wished to remain grounded in his small New Jersey hometown after the success of his earlier album, which included hits like Born to Run. Struggling with unresolved trauma and severe depression stemming from a tumultuous upbringing marked by frequent domestic disputes between his parents and his father's alcoholism (played by Stephen Graham), Springsteen was determined to avoid the pressures of newfound fame.
It was clear to everyone, including the studio executives and his devoted manager Jon Landau (Jeremy Strong), that Bruce Springsteen was destined for global recognition, a fact that the amusing equipment assistant, portrayed by Paul Walter Hauser, reflects as a fan would in this biopic. Despite this certainty, Springsteen made every effort to delay, if not prevent, this fate.
Focusing on confronting his inner demons and exploring darker themes, the musician drew inspiration from somber films like Terrence Malick’s Badlands, his unresolved issues with his father, and a complicated relationship with a casual acquaintance, Faye (played by Odessa Young), who is a divorcee left heartbroken after placing her trust in him. All the while, he abandoned a rock ‘n’ roll style in favor of a controversial folk genre. This deliberate artistic choice also served as a shield to keep his popularity from surging even more. By 1982, he was already a well-known figure, allowing him the chance to retreat to his small-town roots. While part of this was about disconnecting from the hectic life of touring, it was also significantly influenced by his fear of fame, as explored in Cooper's biopic, inspired by Warren Zanes’ book.
The film centers on the making of one album that defies public expectations while searching for a sound that moves away from studio overproduction, with a commitment to transferring raw audio from a cassette tape onto the record. This insider perspective is welcomed, as Bruce insisted that the folk album be unadorned, focusing on the songwriting itself, which brings a sense of authenticity that often feels lacking in similar musician biopics. Jeremy Allen White excels in his role, delivering a genuine portrayal of depression and insecurity, evident in his body language. Even in moments of connection with Faye and her child, an underlying feeling of uncertainty and pain lingers in those seemingly joyful experiences. The emotional climax occurs in a poignant final scene between him and his father.
However, the supporting characters and side plots feel underdeveloped, as they primarily exist to facilitate the creation of songs for the Nebraska album, leading to a sense of dissatisfaction regarding their depth. They lack substance beyond surface impressions, an issue that frustrates given the film’s engagement with the trope of the tormented artist. The narrative is more successful when focused on Bruce's creative process. Additionally, the film seems to rush through a third act, jumping ahead by ten months without exploring his journey toward mental health. Aside from the previously mentioned scene with his father, the film doesn't offer much resolution, which can be mildly disappointing given its overall emotional detachment.
While Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere falls short of achieving true greatness, Jeremy Allen White's heartfelt performance raises it just above mediocrity.
