Ok – who’s seen “Across the Universe”? If you haven’t seen it – stop what you’re doing and go rent it. I’m using my movie review frame, but this isn’t really a review. It’s my attempt to stand on my soap box and SCREAM TO EVERYONE WHO WILL LISTEN that I LOVE IT and that they REALLY should see it!!!!!!!!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This movie is a musical. All the songs are Beattles songs. It’s INCREDIBLE. Seriously – I’m so in love with it. Josh and I just watched it again the other night (we own it on Blu-Ray) and I just can’t stop singing the songs in my head and thinking about it. It’s definitely artistic, and being a musical, I know it won’t be for everyone. But I really recommend giving it a try! The music, the history, the ROMANCE. Oh the romance. I can’t even explain how much I’m in love with this movie. I’m listening to the soundtrack right now. It’s an amazing soundtrack. Warning – you’ll probably have to buy the soundtrack after you see the movie! HAHA<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The director\/visionary\/master of this movie is the amazing Julie Taymor. I did an entire research paper on Julie Taymor in college. She’s INCREDIBLY TALENTED AND AMAZING! Those of you who’ve seen it know what I’m talking about.<\/p>\n

One cool thing about this movie is any time they could, they recorded the singing live right there while they were filming. Singing to playback on set while acting. Which makes the singing so incredibly moving and fabulous and REAL.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sigh. See the movie. Enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
