These inspiring Blinded By The Light movie quotes will have you falling in love with Bruce Springsteen, music, and your childhood over & over again.
It wasn't too long ago that I'd heard of the Blinded By The Light film. As a music major, I was instantly drawn in. Could you imagine a world where you weren't allowed to love a genre of music?

With a fun look at the impact of the lyrics, and different bits of playful filming the movie will have you dancing in your seat.
