Cryin' alone in the theater as the credits roll
"Be True"
Great post, so much of Bruce has a cinematic quality. Darkness, to me, especially is very movie-like - the stripped down scenes and characters.
Gee, I always thought that was "we gotta get out of this place if it’s the last thing we ever do". But then, I'm very literal sometimes.
I appreciate your insights . . . had never really thought about it, but you are of course right about the cinematic quality. After 1985, I couldn't say, but up to then.
And anybody remember when it turned out that Dylan cribbed many of the lyrics to the Empire Burlesque album from dialog in Humphrey Bogart movies?
Followed up by The Crossing Guard, AKA Not the Feel-Good Hit of the Summer, Part II, But Featuring a Nude Scene With Kari Wuhrer.
The whole song is just cinematic....brilliant...
