Thom Zimny (Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen & and the E Street Band)
Director Thom Zimny returns to the show to discuss his latest collaboration with Bruce Springsteen, “Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.” Thom discusses with Tiller his 20-year-long creative process with Bruce (1:45), how the film mirrors the emotional ride of a Springsteen concert (12:00), humanizing the fan base (21:30), evoking the emotion behind the lyrics (27:00), starting the film with no notion of where it’s going (34:00), and “the silent conversation” of the edit (39:00).
