After the Norwegian wood story...i admit i still didn't start reading the book, but once the Pendulum is over... anyway, i kept listening to the Beatles, "kluci jedni zasrany", as my grandma is said to have called them. last week we were about to watch some movie, and Zuzi suggested i watch Across the Universe. Across the Universe it was. The movie is brilliant! Not only that it makes you think about the lyrics of some Beatles' songs. I like that the songs are presented in a different way, often at lower tempo, which is quite tough to deal with. And they dealt with it well. Especially this Sturgess guy. Just listen to the beginning:
I'm not into musicals. Music in movies presented in the theatrical musical way mostly disturbs me, but this time i was simply enchanted. Perhaps also because i know the songs, but, whatever. I like this movie.
And also until this movie i really didn't know that Helter Skelter was from the Beatles.
Juuuu, super! Very glad you enjoyed it :)
