Judging by the trailers, I didn't expect to like this movie. But they took on a huge challenge with the theme and plot and I was moved to tears and laughter. I was constantly surprised at how it evolved.
Penny Lane, if you haven't seen this movie you'd better get on it.

It's currently on the Starz channel. The beatles music plays throughout, and there are many references to their lyics and their history in the script.

I loved I Am Sam. It was sort of like Rain Man meets Cuckoo's Nest. Sean Penn is a terrific actor with quite a range of ability. It was one of those movies where you laugh and cry.
You're right Kitt, great soundtrack.

Unfortunately I don't get Starz. But I'll have to keep an eye out for the video. Thanks Kitt!

I saw the movie this past Saturday and I enjoyed it. I thought it was another one of those chick flicks, but I thought it was pretty good.I'd recommend it.

It was a good movie. A few of the beatles covers were good, but most of them were under par.
