This unique documentary, produced by Ridley Scott Associates and Mr. Wolf, was created for the fans, by the fans, and includes some of Bruce’s most loved songs and previously unseen performances alongside the remarkable stories of those who lived by his music. “This beautifully crafted film provides a unique insight into the powerful bond between a recording artist and those who connect so profoundly with his music,” said executive producer Ridley Scott. Now, this collective filmmaking experience comes to audiences everywhere who can discover how the sound of Bruce Springsteen became the soundtrack to so many lives.
Wow! I haven't had this good a time at the movies for some time.
Usually when I post reviews I mull things over for quite a while but I wanted to put my two cents in while this is ultra fresh. What a great tribute to The Boss. The people who live, breathe and identify with Springsteen's music get the spotlight and showcase in the best possible way why we, the fans, like the man so much.
The stories they tell range from funny to really touching to downright hilarious on occasion. The way Springsteen connects with his audience is really special and it's displayed through some well chosen clips from relatively recent shows. The rare footage from live shows from way back-when is also a real treat for the die-hard fans.
I identified with a lot of the people and most likely every viewer will find something they related to as well. I'm a Springsteen nut so, to me, this was a perfect night at the movies. 10 out of 10.
As an added bonus there was a six song show/compilation from the Hyde Park concert last year (knockout performances of "Shackled and Drawn" and "We are Alive") that concluded with the Beatles songs "I Saw Her Standing There" and "Twist and Shout" with Paul McCartney. Seeing it in a theater with the sound yanked up way high is the next best thing to actually being at a Springsteen concert.
And that "Epilogue" was fun too. Seeing those fans meet the man and how gracious Springsteen seems to be; well it was a great ending to a fantastic film and show.
If anyone has ever wondered what the big deal with Springsteen is…well; "Springsteen and I" is the response I would give.IMDB Reviewer
