Matt and I saw it last night. I thought it was really lovely. It was also cool seeing Joe Cocker, even though I'm pretty sure that something's wrong with him =/. And I'm not a fan of Eddie Izzard. But that's okay. I really enjoyed it. The theatre was packed when we saw it, which was odd because it's been out for a while. We had to drive to San Luis to see it.
I thought Evan Rachel Wood had a really pretty voice. And yes Jim Sturgess is really handsome. <3. I just really liked how some of the songs seemed to be completely reimagined and redefined.
What was your favorite part? I loved "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" I thought it was a clever interpretation. I also thought "Because" was beautiful. A lot of the things brought tears to my eyes. I can't explain why, really. It just made me emotional.
I liked how they performed at the end, on top of the Strawberry Jamz building--kind of a neat homage to the Beatles' last performance on top of Apple Studios.

Ok...so I totally replied to this the day you wrote it, but evidently it didn't save it.

So I'll have to try to remember what I wrote.

I loved the whole thing so much. A lot of it made me really emotional too. I felt a little crazy, but I went to see it with Erin and she was the same way, so I felt less dumb.

I loved the I Want You part, too. And I Love Love LOVVVVVVED the I Am The Walrus part. It was so trippy and I thought that Bono did a great job as Dr. Robert.

How can you not like Eddie Izzard? He's great!

I loved the part too where Jude was trying to draw the apple and he got frustrated with it and cut it in half....it was brilliantly subtle.

Basically it's the best movie ever.
