NOWHERE BOY
If you grew up listening to the Beatles and are a fan of John Lennon, then Nowhere Boy (2009; R) is definitely the movie to see. This is a story about Lennon's teen years during which there was emotional upheaval in his life, and just before The Beatles came together as a band.
Aaron Johnson plays Lennon as he goes through an era of looking very much like a cross between Buddy Holly and Elvis Presley, imitating everything from their hairstyle to the rocawear jeans rolled up at the ankle to reveal white socks. Embracing rock and roll, Lennon rounds up his first rock band. During that time, he discovers his real mother, who is a bit of a free spirit and a polar opposite of his stern Aunt Mimi who raised him.
Follow him through the years which eventually formed him into the John Lennon we remember.
