About the Movie
Across the Universe on DVD:
Directed by Julie Taymor (Broadway's The Lion King), Across the Universe is a musical centered on Beatles songs, although the numbers are not performed by the Beatles. In the 1960s, Jude (Jim Sturgess) is a young Liverpool dockworker who travels to Princeton, where he meets college student Max (Joe Anderson), and the two guys relocate to lower Manhattan. There they live the bohemian life and are soon joined by Max's teenage sister Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood). These three people get caught up in the emerging counterculture, and Jude and Lucy fall for each other.
