Nowhere Boy Trailer

Last night Nowhere Boy was thrown into the spotlight as it closed the 2009 London Film Festival.

Nowhere Boy, the highly anticipated debut feature from British artist Sam Taylor-Wood, will open across the UK through Icon Film Distribution on 26 December

 Imagine John Lennon’s childhood… Liverpool 1955: a smart and troubled fifteen year-old is hungry for experience. In a family full of secrets, two incredible women clash over John.

Mimi, the buttoned-up aunt who raised him, and Julia, the prodigal mother. Yearning for a normal family, John escapes into rock n’ roll. His fledgling genius finds a kindred spirit in the teenage Paul McCartney.

Just as John begins his new life, tragedy strikes. But a resilient young man finds his voice, and an icon explodes into the world.

Take a look at the trailer from the movie:
