Set against the anti-war protests,
rock & roll revolution, and mind-expanding psychedelia of the 1960s,
Julie Taymor's hallucinogenic
musical follows the arduous journey of star-crossed lovers
Jude (
Jim Sturgess) and
Lucy (
Evan Rachel Wood) as they and a small group of musicians are swept up in the raging waters of the volatile counterculture movement. Guided through their journey by a pair known only as
Dr. Robert (
Bono) and
Mr. Kite (
Eddie Izzard),
Jude and
Lucy are eventually forced to find their way back to one another after being split apart by powerful forces beyond their control. The music in the film consists exclusively of songs made popular by
the Beatles during the time period depicted in the movie. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
