Across The Universe

I just saw Julie Taymor's "Across The Universe". I loved it.Julie Taymor is the visual genius who directed the "Lion King" broadway show, "Titus", and "Frida". "Across The Universe" received a bit of attention for it's use of Beatles tunes.A bunch of people I know who were initially interested in the film ended up not seeing it because of the sub-par critical response. Big mistake. They're all missing out on one of the best cinematic experiences to hit theatres in a long time.The backbone of the plot is a love story so the unromantic may get bored (sorry Jerry, this one ain't for you!)...but what is built around it is filled with beauty, ambition, and heart.

Damien:The trailer doesn't really live up to the film. The film is way more of a musical than is suggested, but it's definitely worth a look! -MPB
