Yesterday - BBC 1 tonight

[Frosty1000]

I see the above is on tonight - highly recommend if you haven't seen it. A bit peculiar to read the synopsis but a great film.

I am planning to, thank you for the recommendation.

We have it on record, its a great film.

Thanks for the recommendation. The premise sounds interesting.

I enjoyed that, although I wish they'd spent more time exploring the central concept of the film and less time on the entirely by-the-book and predictable romance plot.

I think the erasure of the Beatles from musical history would have had more ramifications than just erasing Oasis .

Also been trying to work out the link (if any) between the four things we were told had been erased.

Ahh the premise of this move really captivated me but I was really disappointed with it when I finally watched it. THAT SAID the scene near the beginning where 'Yesterday' is played acoustically and no one recognises it is genius

I liked the Harry Potter reference at the end as well. Though I don't think you could do quite the same thing with a book series, as no one is going to remember the text verbatim, and only very devoted fans would remember every single detail of the plot. You'd end up having to invent a lot of it, so the books would be substantially different and might not hit the spot in the way the originals did.

[taking this far too seriously, I know, but 'alternative universe' films interest me]

Seen it twice
brilliant film

Aww really enjoyed it even though I've seen it.

It was filmed in my town, all the students at the local college got invited to be part of the beach concert scene and the cast and crew did alot of work with the local schools and colleges.

Waves - it's where I live too. Love seeing it all on screen!

I especially like the John Lennon bit.
