Movie Story
"Nowhere Boy" tells the never before seen story of John Lennon's (Johnson) childhood. John Lennon is an ordinary fifteen year old boy on the streets of Liverpool. Funny, smart, naughty, a real edge to him. But life is not simple for John - he grew up in a family of secrets and was raised by his Aunt Mimi from the age of five. When he is suddenly reacquainted with his mother, Julia, they form an unbreakable bond. A bitter war rages between the two sisters for John's love. Faced with bringing it to an end, he learns the secret heartbreak of his past. But his mother gives him one great gift - music. A wayward boy finds his voice, and walks into The Beatles.

Pathetic. No resemblence to John Lennon whatsoever. And the accents are awful - more like East Londoners than proper scouse (Liverpool) accents. Don't waste your money - you'll be able to watch this POS on TV on ABC's 'movie of the week' 6 months from its theatre release. JWL must be turning in his grave.
