HBO To Air Springsteen’s Darkness Documentary [img:$uid]http://i37.tinypic.com/evc0on.jpg[/img:$uid]
August 2010
HBO will air the Bruce Springsteen docu The Promise: The Making of Darkness on the Edge of Town in October.
From director Thom Zimny, who has worked with Springsteen on several projects, film captures the tumultuous time Springsteen had between "Born to Run" and "Darkness," his fourth album.
For much of that 1975-78 time period, Springsteen was entangled in a lawsuit with his former manager Mike Appel that prevented him from recording any songs. Doc will offer never-before-seen footage, including home rehearsals.
"The Promise" will also unspool at the Toronto Film Festival, to be held in September.
Here’s the official description:
“The Promise: The Making of Darkness on the Edge of Town takes us into the studio with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band for the recording of their fourth album. Grammy and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Thom Zimny has collaborated with Springsteen on this documentary, gaining access to never before seen footage shot between 1976-1978, capturing home rehearsals and recording sessions that allow us to see Springsteen’s creative process at work.”

I think we can bump threads appropriately now, with the new board functionality. So hopefully the search function actually worked for me this time.
This is airing tonight on HBO. 9:00 PM Eastern/6:00 PM Pacific on HBOE. 9:00 PM Pacific/Midnight Eastern on HBOW.
