Since we're not on a man-call I'll give you some final thoughts!
• I don't think I'll be rushing to see this one. Little tiny ROCKETMAN was OK but I've still not seen Bohemian Rhapsody. I do like JAW and The Bear. Great actor. Kind of a good choice to be honest
• You praise Nebraska as one does! This is my "Way In" to Springsteen. I know you are a big fan. And, trust me, I love Born To Run and Born In The USA in a 'college of classic rock knowledge' sort of way. I'm not a huge fan but I am a fan. Listen to our Curbcast episodes! I'm interested in the 4-track Nebraska story, maybe I'll check out Zane's book itself to get this story. Nebraska is a genre of songwriting I really connect with and listen to a lot. Great stories. Lots of punk rockers have had great careers turning off the amps and doing songs like this. I love Nebraska! A+
• I know the 'estates' and the band and the others involved are Executive Producers for these movies and sign off. And besides my airport story about being late to the gate so a family member could get the DVD, I do think sometimes, like WALK THE LINE they accidentally make a good movie. Heck, I would put RAY, AMADEUS and LOVE AND MERCY (starring JOHN CUSACK and THE RIDDLER) among my favorite movies - not as a MUSIC BIOPIC but just 'good movie'. I like to be a little more removed from the timeline the movie is set in. And hey, as much as I want to hate it, THE DOORS is great too. I like when things are stylized and costumed and 'back in time'. While perhaps a bit contradictory, I feel like this one is too...recent? I mean we just saw him on CURB. He's ALIVE!
Anyway, you know I'm gonna stream it when it is 'free to me'. I'll check back in.
And great that the talented Warren Zanes made a dramatic movie from his book! That's awesome! I do like the documentary style music movies and shows a little more than these kinds of movies. It's all about the star I think. FOXX as RAY, KILMER as MORRISON.... great actors and period pieces! I missed ELVIS on HBO but now it's on Netflix. Maybe I'll check it out with fat TOM HANKS!
Beautifully fucking illustrated.
