Springsteen - Deliver Me From Nowhere (original version with Italian subtitles)
Regia: Scott Cooper
Cast: Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong, Odessa Young, Paul Walter Hauser, Stephen Graham
Giunti Odeon presents an extraordinary film dedicated to one of the greatest icons in rock history: Bruce Springsteen, “The Boss.” 1981: Springsteen is fresh off the success of the River Tour, which made him famous far beyond his native New Jersey, and his record label wants a new LP right away to “strike while the iron is hot.” But he is in the midst of a crisis, partly due to guilt over leaving his roots behind and leaving behind that working-class world of diners, pinball machines, and suburban houses, and partly due to his conflictual relationship with a father who drank heavily and was violent.
Everywhere he goes, he is followed by a dark shadow and an emptiness that he cannot shake off until, in a room in his modest apartment, he composes the songs that will be part of his least known and most respected LP - Nebraska - far removed from what the record company expects. Bruce wants them to be mastered exactly as he recorded them on an audio cassette (without a case), and he doesn't want to do any tours, singles, or interviews: not even put his face on the cover.
Ad assisterlo è il manager e produttore discografico Jon Landau che, pur comprendendo le esigenze della casa cinematografica, crede nell'onestà artistica di Springsteen. E Bruce, a 32 anni, rimane ferocemente attaccato alla sua verità e cerca la sua strada, anche se su di lui grava quella forma depressiva che lo accompagnerà per tutta la vita, e che affonda le radici nella sua infanzia tormentata.

The restaurant
Caffè Odeon, a place to nourish mind and body
Open daily: 11:30 AM - 12:00 AM
Caffè Odeon in Florence was born from the encounter with the Giunti publishing house, and from the project to give new life to the historic Odeon cinema, transforming it into a multifunctional cultural center.
The idea is simple and ambitious: to create a space open all day, like the great Mitteleuropean cafés, where you can enjoy dishes from different gastronomic traditions, a varied pastry selection, a carefully curated coffee service, as well as wines, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
Eating, drinking a coffee or a good glass of wine have much in common with reading a book or watching a film: they are different ways of experiencing stories, through the senses. It is this connection that makes our dream a reality.
A place of history and beauty
Since 1922, the most beautiful films, the most distinguished guests, and the most remarkable events have taken the stage at the magnificent cinema-theatre in Piazza Strozzi, Florence. Come visit us.
Odeon, a century of cinema and culture.
A book filled with images, documents, stories, and curiosities retraces the history of one of Florence's most iconic places, from its origins to the present day. Discover more.
