The movie Yesterday (2019) - based on Beatles tunes with a twist

An unknown musician with a memory of Beatles songs awakens after an accident to a world that never had Coke, cigarettes, or the Beatles. Of course he becomes overwhelmingly popular as he plays the songs and enters the world of commercial music. As much a part of the movie are how his relationships change and he weighs the worth of happiness against career choices. It's a fun movie, and you'll love the soundtrack.

It was available at our public library.

The woman, after hearing him the first time, came back with the yellow submarine and her husband. Placing their flashback within his experience shows it was well thought out.

it's the details that made it a great movie.
