Love and Mercy
I went in expecting more of a Beach Boys movie and less of a Brian Wilson movie. However, it basically tells two stories--the making of Pet Sounds and Brian's gradual descent into an emotional wreck, and Brian breaking free from the influence of his corrupt psychiatrist, Eugene Landy and meeting his future wife, Melinda.
It was brilliant. I have never felt so emotionally drained after a movie. Every single actor was their character. The music, of course, speaks for itself.
Highly recommended for anyone who likes The Beach Boys, or is interested in an uplifting story and romance. You won't be disappointed.
