Imaginative, Leaves One Hoping for More

This short film presents a prologue of sorts to what one hopes eventually becomes a full-length film presentation of The Mersey Boys, based on the wonderful novel of the same title by Steven Farrell, an almost "parallel universe" Beatles story, based largely in history and biography, through the eyes and pen of Dr. Albert Moran. Quite well done and generally well-acted, although this reviewer found the performances of the John and, to a lesser extent, young Moran characters in the bar scene a little tight. Jessica Messenger as Ginny the barmaid is a natural. All in all, recommended for Beatles fans, with the hope that it becomes a full-length film.
