Across the Universe

There have been a lot of the so-called "jukebox musicals" but this one worked for me.

Julie Taymor's 2007 film takes Beatles music and reinterprets it to fit her story of love and a society in turmoil.

Creative shooting, imaginative staging. The songs were used well and preformed with a new sense of topicality and urgency.

Really liked this one.
