It was a great night!

Bruce Springsteen wanted a 'Scott Cooper movie.' We asked the director what that is Filmmaker Scott Cooper talks to us about getting the Boss' blessing on "Deliver Me From Nowhere," working with Jeremy Allen White and how his movies resist easy answers.

The father thing, as per HBO, was cleared up as stepfather and birth father. 🤷🏻‍♀️
