- We take a lot of these songs for granted now, but if you listen to the words as if you were first hearing them, like Jack's friends did, they would still have a lot of meaning. Seeing them cry when they heard "Yesterday" was quite moving.
- Hamish Patel does a really nice job singing the songs, and I liked his portrayal of Jack, too.
- The moment I saw Ellie look at Jack, I thought, "she loves him." Boys are so blind sometimes. Lily James is so sweet in this role.
- "I've been waiting half of my life just waiting for you to love me."
- I love all of the outcomes of the searches he did on Google. Pope John Paul. Ha!
- What?! No Coca-Cola, either?
- What kind of a crazy person has a recording studio right next to a working railroad track? Gavin, I guess.
- Wait, that's actually Ed Sheeran! Why do I not have any of his albums? I like a whole bunch of his songs. One moment please while I add him to my Amazon list.
- OK, so I added whatever I could get on Prime from Ed Sheeran as well as the Beatles. That's a lot of songs.
- "You look like that Ed Sheeran." "I am Ed Sheeran." "Oh. Good on you."
- I don't know how he was able to remember so many songs, but I'm glad they showed his struggle to remember the lyrics, especially for "Eleanor Rigby".
- "Two teeth missing? It's like a rabbit but in reverse."
- "It's one of the greatest songs ever written." "Well. It's not Coldplay. It's not 'Fix You.'"
- Kate McKinnon makes me laugh a lot. 'You're skinny but somehow round."
- "How did I get into the wrong column?"
- I cried a couple of times during the movie, but I was almost inconsolable when Jack went to the house on the beach.
I really liked this movie! It's funny, and it's romantic, and it's got great music, and there's a quirky premise. It's my kind of movie.
