Across the Universe - The Movie

This upcoming movie sounds like a really bad idea.....

A romantic musical told mainly through numerous Beatles songs performed by the characters. A young man from Liverpool comes to America during the Vietnam War to find his father. He winds up in Greenwich Village, where he falls in love with an American girl who has grown up sheltered in the suburbs. Together they experience the sweeping changes of America in the late 60's.

No, they are recording cover versions with Joe Cocker & Bono, kinda like the Bee Gees masterpiece Sgt. Pepper.
