Blinded by the Light at Plymouth Arts Cinema

Part of Plymouth Arts Cinema's Cut and Paste! season — a local take on the BFI's UK-wide Rip It Up programme exploring youth, rebellion and culture through film — Blinded by the Light follows Javed as he navigates racism and economic hardship in Thatcher-era Luton, until Springsteen's lyrics give him a language for everything he feels. It is a crowd-pleasing, heartfelt film that works equally well for those who know every Springsteen record and those who have never heard one. The screening runs across several days, so there is plenty of opportunity to catch it at this intimate Plymouth cinema.
