Locations included the Pony, the Carousel building, Frank&#8217;s Deli and Restaurant, and the boardwalk in Asbury Park, as well as downtown Freehold.

He didn&#8217;t get his start at the Stone Pony, but he&#8217;s played there so many times that he&#8217;s become synonymous with the club, which opened in February 1974.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cSpringsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere\u201d is about the making of &#8220;Nebraska,&#8221; the Boss&#8217; 1982 lo-fi classic album. Scott Cooper is the director and writer, and Jeremy Strong plays Springsteen manager Jon Landau. Disney&#8217;s 20th Century Studios is releasing it into movie theaters on Friday, Oct. 24.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The movie also explores Springsteen&#8217;s relationship with his father, the late Douglas Springsteen of Freehold, and how it factored into the composition of \u201cNebraska.\u201d Douglas is played by British actor Stephen Graham.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThese moments are real, and there was something kind of fragile and very delicate for me performing these moments,\u201d said White, 34-year old star of TV&#8217;s &#8220;The Bear.&#8221; \u201cI think I can speak for Bruce a little bit \u2014 there was a lot of fragility with him as well as me. There was a lot of softness in trying to recapture these moments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">White, Strong and Cooper returned to the Pony on Tuesday, and White and Cooper were there on Wednesday, Oct. 1, part of the movie&#8217;s press event in Asbury Park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Subscribe to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.app.com\/offers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:app.com;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">app.com<\/a> for the latest on the New Jersey music scene.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Chris Jordan, a Jersey Shore native, covers entertainment and features for the USA Today Network New Jersey.
