Really enjoyed this telling of Brian Epstein's life and his pivotal role in The Beatles becoming huge.
Jacob Fortune-Lloyd is an engaging Brian. His belief in the boys and need for the world to see them really comes across.
Aside from learning about Epstein's influence, the film does a great job of showing his struggle between public image and private self without being too 'sensational' which can be annoying with biopics.
Some might see that as playing it a bit safe but I thought it struck a nice balance.
The film is stylish, the casting of The Beatles works well (Lennon is short though!) and the fourth wall breaking moments are fun.
Shame there wasn't any really recognisable songs, probably hard to get, but the early Beatles songs they used fit well.
