Not every music biopic needs to chronicle an entire life, and Scott Cooper’s Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere doesn’t attempt to depict The Boss in such a way. Bruce Springsteen’s catapult to fame? Skipped over. Instead, the film trades Springsteen’s hits for the moodier tracks of his sixth studio album, Nebraska. With a focus on this particular chapter of his life, the film sidesteps some biopic clichés — only to trip over others.
‘Armageddon Time’ marks the most personal film yet from writer and director James Gray.
‘Succession’ follows the Roy family as patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox), looks to hand over his mega-media and entertainment company to his son, Kendall Roy (Jeremy Strong). But soon all of the drama and dysfunction that ensues within a powerful and rich family that is hungrier for power above anything else begins to seep out. ‘Succession’ was created by Jesse Armstrong and executive produced by Armstrong, Adam McKay, and Will Ferrell.
