Stephen Graham, celebrated for his role in 'Adolescence,' discusses his portrayal of Bruce Springsteen's father in the upcoming biopic 'Deliver Me from Nowhere.' He details how Springsteen's reaction to Graham's performance moved him to tears. In the film, set during the recording of Springsteen's 1982 album 'Nebraska,' Graham wears prosthetics to embody Douglas Dutch Springsteen, navigating the complexities of their fraught relationship. He shares a touching message from Springsteen expressing gratitude for evoking fond memories of his late father, highlighting the emotional impact of their connection through art.
I'm racing to get to the airport, said Graham, and I got this text, and it was so beautiful... Better than any award that I could ever receive in my life.
And his text just said, Thank you so much. You know, my father passed away a while ago and I felt like I saw him today and thank you for giving me that memory.
