A preview of the companion film Bruce Springsteen made for his new album, Western Stars, was shown in theaters last Friday ahead of the opening of Blinded by the Light, which is about a British man whose life changed when he discovered Springsteen’s music.
Western Stars will have its official premiere next month at the Toronto International Film Festival, before being shown in theaters again in the fall.
The film shows Springsteen performing all 13 songs off the album backed by a band and a full orchestra, under the cathedral ceiling of his historic century-old barn.
