Neat little movie with an interesting story line that I don't recall ever seeing before. One day a fella wakes up and throughout his day he realizes that The Beatles are completely removed from history in everybody's memory, except for his. Of course, he's a musician and begins to publicly perform Beatles songs to much acclaim...

Hilarity at times ensues, and a love story emerges at seemingly the most inconvenient time.

Nice lil popcorn flick, just don't expect it to shake your world. Let it be the fun lil romp that it is.

"This is cheating because it’s four books in one. But Liebling wrote so well about so much, a compendium is merited. Two of these are reporting from World War II, where no other writer, in my opinion, could touch him. “The Road Back to Paris” is an epic dispatch full of hard times and the finest lyricism. The other two books are about France, food, wine, memory, boxing. I wouldn’t argue if you insisted that Liebling’s greatest subject was actually New York City, or even Louisiana. It’s too bad there’s not a twelve-pack."

"From the first lines of Celan’s “Todesfuge”: Black milk of daybreak we drink it at sundown/ we drink it at noon in the morning we drink it at night/ we drink and we drink it Celan’s poems are terrifying and beautiful, many of them reflect his experience of the Holocaust. His parents died in a concentration camp, he was imprisoned in a labor camp. Language is Celan’s tool of combat and survival, and of the evocation of memory. I have always preferred poetry and prose to fiction. Poetry condenses."
