Fact-Checking the Upcoming Bruce Springsteen Biopic ‘Deliver Me From Nowhere’

Music biopics often take creative liberties with the facts, but a new film about Bruce Springsteen takes a different approach.

Musical legends being depicted on film is nothing new, but rarely do these films attempt to tell the story accurately. Audiences have learned to accept dramatic license in biopic tales, such as:

Queen breaking up before the Live Aid reunion in the film about them
Elton John stealing his stage name from John Lennon
Vince Neil of Mötley Crüe singing Billy Squier’s “My Kind of Lover” before the original recording
Amy Winehouse forgetting to thank “Blake Incarcerated” when she accepted her Grammy
Bob Dylan and Joan Baez spending a night together in a Washington D.C. hotel during the Cuban Missile Crisis

These fabrications and contrived timelines have become a genre unto themselves.

Author's summary: New biopic about Bruce Springsteen takes factual approach.
