across the universe

i didn't move off my parent's black naugahyde couch

the week after john lennon was murdered

my head was next to the radio and i listened and cried

as other people cried and every station played beatles' songs

across the universe is just too long as a movie--

however, it is a brilliant, brilliant piece of genius

(i kept wanting to shut it off especially around the
1 hour 45 minute mark but i couldn't do it)

it's sort of like 30 of the greatest music

videos you've ever seen all strung together

in a clever, dramatic way...

she's so heavy alone could carry the entire film--

jesus christ!

the imagery is unfucking believable!

(again with the exclamation points?!?)

i'm taking the fifth on the hackneyed story line

because, the thing of it is, you can never get too much john lennon

love is all you need...
