Hate the title, but love the premise. Lennon (my idol) had a pretty torturous childhood. Both Lennon & McCartney lost their mother's in their teens; I remember reading how John told Paul, "I'd go off me head if my mother was to die." & then she did & he did. Throw in John's biting sarcastic wit & it should make for a very powerful film.
