There's this movie that I really want to see except I don't know the name of it. I know it hasn't came out yet and I've seen the trailer a couple times but I just can't remember the name. It's about the 60s peace movement and the anti-war movement during the Vietnam War. I also remember they played "All You Need is Love" in a part of the trailer but aside from that, I can't remember it. Can someone help me?

Hmmm...I think I know what you're talking about! But I can't seem to find the name of the movie anywhere :P The movie I'm thinking of was based off the song "Hey Jude" by the Beatles...is this the same one you're thinking of?

No, I don't think so.

Hm, I don't think I've seen any trailers for it- you might check out imdb.com. They have a section with upcoming movies listed. I'll keep an eye out for it!

It's Across the Universe, isn't it? I've seen the trailer quite a few times (being the avid movie-goer that I am). It looks somewhat bizarre, but it might be a good rental sometime.

Yeah, I think so now that I've taken a closer look. The main hero's name is Jude.

Woo! I am über excited for this movie. When I saw the trailer in the cinema not too long ago my jaw dropped. It's really going to be an interesting movie. And of course the Beatles are love, so it should be a hit anyway. :P

I thought it was just a film with lots of referances to the Beatles and not actually about them?

Well, it references a lot of their songs throughout the movie, but your right, it's not about them.

Ah, right. I just wasn't sure if it was about them, due to some of the comments above. No doubt all the people I saw outside the Beatles Museum in Liverpool will be going frantic about it.

Oh Lord, of course they'll be going frantic. I'm going frantic and I'm not even from Liverpool. :teehee:

Ah, well that's probably because you and they like the Beatles, I don't. :P
