I thought the music bio was overdone, then I saw "Love and Mercy" about Brian Wilson and the Beach Boys and I was proven wrong. I also cannot conceive why I was never a fan of the Beach Boys. After seeing this film, I am a convert. This bio-pic pulled back the curtain on Brian's struggle with mental illness at the height of their popularity. As his life unfolds before us, we see him struggle to stay in charge of his life both as a young man and an older adult. Through it all, his genius shines leaving most of us in the audience with a new-found respect.
Thanks for entering my world,
