Singer-songwriter beyond compare

Bruce Springsteen and the East Street band is the reason this film exists and is wonderful. Even after so many years the songs are fresh and the performances invigorating.

Mr. Springsteen is simply the future of and the present realization of rock 'n roll.The songs speak to the everyday man in a naturally American way. Bruce and the E Streeters are people you would say hey to on the street. They might be icons and giants of the stage, but they are also people. Bruce seems approachable and godlike at the same time. The material stands on its own.

The songs are dealt with an appropriate fashion commensurate with the filmmakers personal style. Bruce and a different band members are seen in performance mode and in some revealing backstage presence. It is definitely a film worth watching. Especially if you are a Bruce fan.

The clip with Viggo Mortensen is...
shifter77710 January 2005
When looking up Viggo Mortensen on this site, I saw that his bit in this DVD was included. However, the character he played was unknown. If you keep watching and read the credits at the end of this DVD, you will see that the clip with Viggo in it is from the movie The Indian Runner (1991), also starring David Morse (The Green Mile - 1999, Hack - TV - 2002). That's really all I wanted to say, but seeing I am here... Never really a huge fan of Bruce Springsteen, watched this because I run a karaoke business, and a mate was pestering me to sing some Bruce, so he loaned me this DVD so I could learn some. Gradually becoming more of a fan. If you ARE a big fan, then you need this DVD.
