Getting around to the live disc, and really enjoying how Bruce's older, more weathered voice sounds on these songs.
Found a Bruce blog that wrote some good descriptive stuff: New Album Review: Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Nebraska ’82: Expanded Edition’ [Outtakes, Electric and Count Basie LP Reviews, including Box Set Summary and Stand Out Songs]
I thought it was fine. Wish all the scenes with Faye (who doesn't exist in real life) had been cut - is my only real critique.
It's not good. It plays like a reenactment of entries on Wikipedia rather than a real movie. It uses all the cliches in the book too. Disappointing really as I think there's an interesting movie to be made about that time somewhere. This isn't it though.
I thought Jeremy Allen White did a great Bruce. Unfortunately, they forgot to include anything interesting in the script.
