Sometimes documentaries get all they need from the subject, and in the case of “Stevie Van Zandt: Disciple,” the who’s who of musical luminaries in his orbit don’t hurt either.
Chronicling Steven Van Zandt’s colorful life as Bruce Springsteen’s frequent collaborator, “The Sopranos’” weirdest mobster and an outspoken activist, “Disciple” plucks the right notes in a 2 1/2-hour marathon that’s still shorter than an average night’s work for the E Street Band.
When Van Zandt mentions the seminal experience of seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan’s show, it’s almost immediately followed by an interview with Paul McCartney. Ditto for other singers that Van Zandt mentions, like Dion DiMucci, Darlene Love and Gary U.S. Bonds.
