Although the process is a bit boring, I still like the design of this story

This is a British movie. In the UK, Queen, The Beatles, The Beatles, these two are the greatest representatives of rock and roll. "Bohemian Rhapsody" has already introduced Queen in a biographical way, so it would obviously be a little out of place if the Beatles did a biopic in the same way. This is easy to be compared, and it will lead to war among music fans and dilute the effect of the film. Therefore, "Yesterday's Miracle" chose a mode similar to travel, depicting a world without the Beatles, and came to cherish the memory of the Beatles with fans. . . The male protagonist who survived a car accident wakes up and finds that the world is a little different. The Beatles and other important cultural symbols such as "Coca-Cola" and "Harry Potter" seem to have never existed, and no one in the world has heard of the Beatles. Sergeant's songs. As a result, the male protagonist worked hard to recall and compose and restore those classic songs, and carried them forward, and his own life was also able to counterattack... This movie has a certain threshold for viewing. If you don't understand European and American pop culture, you can hardly get it. Various stalks such as "Ready Player One" Easter eggs: For example, if he is still alive, John Lennon, who is now 78 years old, and the singer-songwriter who plays his own character in the film: Ed Sheeran, a nickname "Boss Yellow", blah blah blah. All of these, to a certain extent, have narrowed the distance between the movie world and the real world. Add dozens of familiar Beatles classic songs, and the exciting setting of "A World Without the Beatles" is enough to hold up the entire movie.
