I have never been a real big fan of the Beatles, & know very little about there music or themselves,
I do know films & also know that very rarely do they ever tell the truth about any performing artist.
This is a film about before the time these late teen-agers became the Beatles, & about Stuart Sutcliffe (he co-founded the group with John Lennon), Stuarts story is sad BUT the music is first rate.
The acting by Stephen Dorff & Ian Hart as Sutcliffe & Lennon are first rate, More than likely inaccurate, BUT this is a movie. Sheryl Lee is quite good as Stu's love interest.
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie I just may have to "googleize' the truth, from Google, & we all know they are not the most accurate source. This is from 1994 & I am finally seeing it. I am glad I did.
Ratings ***1/2 (Out of 4) 93 points (out of 100) IMDb 9 (out of 10)
