An early look at the upcoming John Lennon biopic "Nowhere Boy" has surfaced
online. The trailer for the film, which deals with the late Beatle's
adolescence, is available at

based on "Imagine This: Growing Up With My Brother John Lennon" by his
half-sister Julia Baird and focuses primarily with Lennon's relationships with
his mother, Julia (played by Anne-Marie Duff), and his aunt Mimi Smith (Kristin
Scott Thomas). British actor Aaron Johnson will play Lennon, while Thomas
Sangster will portray a young Paul McCartney. The film marks the directoral
debut by Sam Taylor-Wood and is scheduled for a U.K. debut on Christmas day,
with a U.S. release expected around the same time.
