We saw it a couple of weeks ago here in Birmingham, and it's by far the best movie of the year. I've been a lifelong Beach Boys fan and had kept up with Brian's life over the years, so I kind of knew what to expect. My fiancé had little prior knowledge about his personal life so it was pretty shocking & heartbreaking for her......she cried through the whole movie, I think. It's really amazing how he was able to create his wonderful music considering all the struggles he had to endure. Paul Dano and John Cusack were wonderful in their portrayals of Brian, and of course there is plenty of classic Beach Boys music. It was a great, great film. Highly recommend it.
