NEW YORK – Go West, Bruce

Springsteen.

A trip to the West frames the vi-

brant “Western Stars,” the new concert

film co-directed and starring Spring-

steen and in theaters Friday. (Fathom

Events will preview the film Wednes-

dayin select theaters.)

Think of the film as a companion, or

part of a trilogy, with his “Born to Run”

memoir and “Springsteen on Broad-

way.”

All three works look inward, into the

alchemy of how a kid from Freehold,

New Jersey, became a rock superstar,

best-selling author and now a star of a

movie.

And Springsteen believes they are

among his best works.

“I think probably coming up on 70

had something to do with it and just

being at a certain point in your life and

your work life where you felt prepared

to sort of summarize the trip you’ve

been on for quite a while. It all hap-

pened as an accident,” says Spring-

steen of the trilogy. “Obviously, the

timing was right and it was the kind of

work I was ready and anxious to do. But

all those three things, I’m very proud of

all those three things. I think they’re

three of the best things I’ve ever done.”

“Western Stars” shows Springsteen

performing with a band and orchestra

playing songs from his album, “Western

Stars.”

The Boss knows the terrain. His fam-

ily left Freehold for California when he

was in his early 20s.

“My dad (Douglas Springsteen) knew

absolutely nothing about California or

the West except that was where he

wanted to go to begin his new life. And

he took my mother and my sister with

him and that’s where they went, and

that’s what they did,” Springsteen says.

“They spent $3,000, that was all the

money they had. They spent two nights

in the car and a night in a motel on the

way out there. They just built every-

Sunny Hostin is turning her View to
true crime.
The former federal prosecutor, who
moved into television with appear-
ances on Court TV, Fox News, as a legal
analyst for CNN and as a co-host of
ABC’s “The “View,” is getting her own
show, “Truth About Murder With Sun-
ny Hostin,” premiering Tuesday (10
p.m EDT/PDT) on Investigation Dis-
covery.
Hostin, 50, who joined “The View”
in 2016, has a hunger for justice,
formed at an early age after witnessing
a traumatic incident: Her uncle was
stabbed at a party when she was 7, and
the ordeal helped carve Hostin’s ca-
reer.
“That was a driving force, and I ac-
tually didn’t even realize how powerful
that moment was,” Hostin says. “I
think it turned a tragedy into a positive
for me in many ways, but it’s some-
thing that stuck with me for so very
long.” She told USA TODAY’s Hispanic
Living magazine some graphic details
are still with her. “I remember family
members pulling him into the bath-
room to help him and seeing the blood
on the black-and-white tile.”
The focus of “Truth About Murder”
and its six episodes – the victims, their
families, community and law enforce-
ment, but not what’s in the minds of
the assailants – drew Hostin in.

HOW WAS YOUR DAY?

HEADLINE GOES HERE

“I don’t know where we could live in Africa at the

moment, you know. We just came from Cape Town,

that would be an amazing place for us to base ourselves.

But with all the problems going on there, I just don’t see

how we’d really be able to make as much of a difference

... The rest of our lives, especially our life’s work, will be

predominantly focused on Africa, on conservation.

There’s a lot of things to be done and a lot of problems

here, but there’s also huge potential.” – Prince Harry, in

the documentary, “Harry & Meghan: An African Journey.”
