Fun RomCom with great soundtrack

Rating: 7/10 (15 July 2019)

We enjoyed this one. I am not a big Beatles fan but this movie made me go back and take another look. A world event happens and he awakes with a concussion and some missing teeth -- and a changed world in which the Beatles have never existed (among other things). As a songwriter, he decides to try out a few of their songs and, surprise, they are hits! This movie does a good job of showing how corporate greed kills creativity. Had a buddy who was a gifted artist but working for a big marketing company who wanted him in a cubical in a suit with his head phones turned down so as not to bother the other cubical rats, killed his vibe. This movie has some flaws, like most romcoms you find yourself asking "why not just tell her how you feel" but it all works itself out. I'd recommend this one.
