Nowhere Boy

England Aaron Johnson, Kristin Scott-Thomas

Nicely done re-creation of the early, formative years of John Lennon. He ricocheted between the stern controlling force of his aunt Mimi who raised him and the free-spirited irresponsible mother who abandoned him. To escape this conflict he turned to music...the early rock and roll that transformed so many of us.

Engrossing film which seemed to race along while still giving an in-depth understanding of one of the iconic figures of the 20th century.
