Jeremy Allen White trades one moody, introspective persona for another as the titular anguished rocker in Scott Cooper’s Bruce Springsteen biopic, “Deliver Me From Nowhere.” The film, based on Warren Zanes’s 2023 book of the same name, is by no means the typical, life-spanning account we’ve come to expect from most musician portraits on the big screen.

"Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere," in theaters Friday, has more blatant biopic cliches despite zeroing in on two years in the life of the singer.

Scott Cooper's biopic focuses on the making of the album 'Nebraska' (1982), created while the artist was grappling with deep depression.
