"⭐️EXCELLENT‼️⭐️
▪️This #biopic of #creative #genius #Grammy_winning #songwriter Brian Wilson is #well_executed
▪️His personal background, including his contemptuous relationship with his father, his lack of self-worth, his struggles with panic attacks, mental & physical abuse, drug abuse, loneliness, despair, and a deteriorating mind are all handled here in a #tender & #soulful way
▪️Both #PaulDano & #JohnCusack delivered #impressive performances in portraying the younger & older versions of #BrianWilson
▪️If you are a fan of either of these actors, or were ever a fan of The #BeachBoys & their #music, or if you enjoy the aesthetic of films set in the #1960s & #1980s watch this!
▪️It’s #compelling
▪️Solid performances also given by #PaulGiamatti who plays Wilson’s quack-therapist & #ElizabethBanks who plays Wilson’s romantic interest.
▪️And it’s got a HAPPY ENDING!! 😊

"Really good movie, completely went under my radar until now and I am blown away. It is not an easy feat to paint a picture of such complex character and complicated life and this is a darn good job! Why this movie didn’t get wider recognition is puzzling.

"Gives you a sampling of the genius that is Brian Wilson. Totally under appreciated him until I watched Love & Mercy.
Good ending. "
