Love & Mercy

Watch Trailer
“EXTRAORDINARY, EVEN VISIONARY…Paul Dano delivers an astonishing performance as the younger version of Wilson, with John Cusack playing him in later years, a gambit that pays off handsomely in a production that reflects Wilson’s blazing imagination with its own ingenious structure, visual approach, sound design and poetic sensibility….an unexpected, undisputed triumph. – Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post
“★★★★★! Once in a while you see a biopic that brings off something miraculous, that recreates a famous person’s life with so much care that the immersion we seek is achieved. When you watch LOVE & MERCY, a drama about Brian Wilson, the angelic yet haunted genius of The Beach Boys, you feel like you’re right there in the studio with him as he creates “Pet Sounds.” And it’s a little like sitting next to Beethoven: the film is tender and moving, but also awe-inspiring. – Owen Gliberman, BBC.com

LOVE & MERCY presents an unconventional portrait of Brian Wilson, the mercurial singer, songwriter and leader of The Beach Boys. Set against the era defining catalog of Wilson’s music, the film intimately examines the personal voyage and ultimate salvation of the icon whose success came at extraordinary personal cost.
