Across the Universe (with Naomi from Itchy Kitty)

Before we both head to Treefort Festival, Naomi from Itchy Kitty comes in through my bathroom window to defend the honor of Julie Taymor's 2007 romantic '60s Beatles jukebox musical Across the Universe. We dive deeper than a Yellow Submarine into the movie's controversial variations on Beatles songs, how damn hot most of the cast is, ambitious visual choices, Bono's weird mustache, the way the film condenses the decade, easter eggs for Beatlemaniacs, the level of nudity and drug use that can be shown in a PG-13 movie, and how the movie inspired Naomi to start singing.
