Big props to the cameraman for filming this before The Beatles were big

"Want a beer?" "I'd love a tea." perfect dialogue to describe their personalities

Someone should give John's friend a Nobel prize for introducing the two. Without him, music would never be what it is today.

I had no idea John was 30 and Paul was 11 when they met.

he learned to play the guitar freaking left handed for this role omg he's so amazing!

When he said "Oh,i'd love a tea"i just awwwed cuz he's the most adorable person on the planet

I was in St Peter`s church hall in Woolton whilst on my first visit to Liverpool in August and there is a beautiful painting on the wall depicting John and Paul`s introduction and the actual spot where they met is marked by markers bearing their initials.

Happy birthday Paul McCartney, you’re 80 and still alive doing shows!

Note : Paul didn’t have a guitar with him at the actual meeting…they were actually formally introduced between sets near a storage shed behind the church and Paul was invited to hang out with the band before the gig at the hall. It was here that Paul went into ‘show off’ mode and played a right-handed guitar and did his Little Richard routine, which impressed John no end 😁 (also note : they didn't do this gig on a truck - they were in a truck earlier in the day for the procession around Woolton village, but in the churchgrounds they played on a small makeshift stage)

If anyone's wondering, Paul's playing "Twenty flight rock"

In his tribute song to John, 'Here Today' Paul says, "What about the time we met, well I suppose that you could say that we were playing hard to get" This refers to the fact John didn't ask Paul to join the group right away. He was a bit intimidated by how good Paul was. And after all, John was the leader and the star and singer up to that point. So he waited a while and told his friend Pete Shotten and Ivan Vaughn to ask Paul to join. This was typical John. This way HE didn't have to do it face to face to avoid embarrassment if Paul said no. Paul played hard to get because when asked by Pete to join he told him he'd like to think on it for a bit. Both were playing hard to get even though Paul really wanted to join right away and John really wanted him right away, they both made each other wait. Another line in Paul's tribute song 'Here Today" to John, was "Remember the night we cried because there wasn't any reason left to keep it all inside". This was when they were both in a hotel room in a rain storm and got drunk and started telling each other how much they love each other. This never happened before. John got very drunk and started crying and so did Paul. It was the fact John and Paul were thinking about their mother's that had died very young in their lives. That was the bond between them. And that night they both let the pain out in tears. Very very unlike John and Paul to show that much emotion.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Thomas Brodie-Sangster together in one movie. They're two of my favourite actors :D Quicksilver and Newt XD

This band sounds amazing. Hopefully they make it good someday.

The most important day in music history Edit: shit the reply comments are mostly arguing so this was the most important day in music history which led the Beatles to become the biggest band to have ever been but the day was made possible because Elvis became so famous giving Paul and John a similar taste in music and Elvis was inspired by someone bla bla bla anyways we Arive at the first humans making grunting noises bla bla bla go back more time and we are at single celled organisms and a killer cell decides to spare the powerhouse of the cell go further back and the sun was created and we finally Arive at the big bang which was the most important day in music history. I just said that day was the most important so I didn't have to go through all that but now i did so what's the point anymore

Everyone here is freaking out over Thomas and I'm just sitting here, swooning every time Aaron appears...

I love how john offers a handshake right after saying he plays with himself all the time

It’s that moment at the end when John looks over his shoulder and he knew this mattered a lot. Excellent

Stuff that I'm sure if true in this movie: That Paul could smell beer on John's breath when they met. That Paul knew the song John and the Quarrymen performed and that they got nearly all the music and lyrics wrong but still had something about them. That John and the rest of the Quarrymen were impressed at Paul's ability to play a right-handed guitar left handed. That Paul not only got every note and lyric right but also sung it in a flawless American accent. That Paul's dad thought John was a no good drop out and that John's Aunt Mimi wasn't too keen on having someone from council housing coming over

The first time I lay eyes on Thomas in every movie, my breath is taken from me

His little head twirl at 3.06 It kills me! And at 3.23 he is like; Deal With it! I love Thomas.

"The day the planets collided", as put by a a major Argentinian newspaper on 2007, 50th anniversary of the historical encounter.

I loved it when Paul ( Thomas ) said : " your all right " ..he was like ..soooooo cute ..my fav actor that inspired me to act..he is so cute AND TALENTED ...I mean the guy learned to play the guitar LEFT HANDED FOR GOODNESS SAKE ..he ALSO can act like..AMAZINGLY ..I don't even need to explain ..u have the video and loads more videos so u can see by yourself ..did I mention that he is as adorable and cute..I think I did ..anyway here I am saying it again ..HE IS SO FREAKING ADORABLE

He sounds exactly like Paul at the 3:30 mark when he says”last month”

They portrayed this scenario pretty accurately. You could see the rest of the Quarry Men behind John basically crapping their pants. Paul was too good for them, so either John was going to quit and go with Paul, or the others would all eventually be fired. Oh to have been a fly on the wall in that room, that day, that moment. Quite possibly the most important moment of the entire 20th century.

The most important day in music history

What really happened is that John was so impressed with Paul's talent he hired him the next day. Here it shows him rejecting Paul. Not true.

Thomas is perfect 😍😍😍 in Every single freaking way. Omg I'm absolutely in love.

The day music changed forever...

The Beatles Music will last a THOUSAND YEARS!!!! 🍏

3:24 John is like *_"DAMN"_*

McCartney showed John how to tune a guitar by playing it upside down and it sold about 10 years ago for over 400 thousand pounds and it wasn't even McCartney's guitar 😱

'Aren't you a bit too young to be joining the Beatles?' 'Yes, yes I am'

Crazy how different the world World be if Paul had been sick that day…

I loved that Actor who played Paul. This movie delved more into Paul and John's relationship.

His habit 03:29 As usual

I dunno why John looks like a bully and Paul looks like he's about to get beaten when this scene should represent some inception of one of the greatest friendships

When I watch this video. I always end up singing along. I dunno why... I just fell in love with the song... So now, I just sing to it.

“You got that back to front haven’t you mate?”😂❤️

"Yeah, That Pink carnation is really dandy" XD then Thomas (Paul here) smirks

3:31 he got that little mannerism pretty spot on Theres interviews from the early days where Paul sort of rubs the corner of his mouth from the Beatles days and theres interviews from nowadays where he does the same thing.

Great eddie cochran I m 19 Listen to almost everything Rock n roll a always cool

He even spoke like John! Well done Aaron

I saw this with my mom when it just came out. I actually had to go twice but they cancelled it the first time due to a holiday. I'm the same age as the actors playing John and Paul and I was a diehard John Lennon fan. The film was eyeopening but I still remember it with fondness and the line "Because he was saving you for John Lennon" still makes me smile.

I can hardly play well with my right hand, let alone my left. Talent/10 Hot/10 Can he be anymore perfect?!

Paul Knew The Correct words to 20 Flufht Rock He’s in the Band George Played Raunchy on top of A DoubleDecker Bus for John.. He’s in The Band♥️🌟💙

Mimi was stunning, at least in the movie

0:29-0:41 John to Julia (interesting remark...sums up his grievance towards her) 0:10-1:19 Mimi to Julia (interesting dirty look...sums up her reproach of her)

John Lennon always was the leader.

Holy crap Thomas is singing I'm dying !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please tommy please I'm sorry I just had too

Really good quality for 1957 to be fair

R. I. P. John Lennon

"How-old-ah-ya?" And "last moohnth" are spott on

Massa.

Thanks god Paul was there when John and friends performed at the stage 😊

Brilliant. I love this 😍

This was a GREAT scene! I think the coolest thing ever in life would have been to have seen actual original footage of this first official introduction of Paul to John. video camera and cellphone popularity came a few decades too late IMHO.

Would help if the actors even slightly resembled who they were playing. 🤔

John looks so much like a young John Travolta.

I love this movie so much 😍

oddio thomas Sangster il mio attore preferito

Wow, such a great quality too!

Wow amazing they recorded their meeting

Imagine if that day never happened… what would the world would be without what happened on the afternoon of july 6th, 1957 at the garden fete of St Peter’s Church in Woolton, Liverpool…

What is John saying when Paul puts on the guitar? I can't for the life of me figure it out.

This is so well recreated...brilliant from the movie Nowhere Boy.

that's from the movie NOWHERE BOY. story about JOHN LENNON

Que bello día, que bello destino :3

The movie is: Nowhere Boy (2009)

Love their accent !

just imagine what the world would be like if he'd missed that meeting? (well...don't use the actual state of the world today as a gauge i guess cause things are pretty shitty right now...but when the Beatles were at their peak they brought a lot of changes.)

Neste filme, John aparece como alguém muito arrogante e superseguro como ele na verdade não era. Principalmente neste dia, quando ele estava fazendo uma apresentação e estreia com sua banda, Acho que ele não deveria estar com uma atitude tão agressiva e debochada, como aparece na cena. Enfim, temos que perguntar ao Paul antes que seja tarde demais.

man : hey john paul plays too john: wat ? with himself... ..hahahah..lol

3:16 I bet John was thinking "all you idiots behind me, get lost"

Thomas is really talented, he learned how to play guitar LEFT-HANDED, just for this movie. And his voice; I love it! c: So much!

Ahh -3 Aaron plays John so well. I love 20 flight rock btw!!! And Maggie Mae-3 love this whole seen. It's good for the wrist muscles XD -333

thanks :)

I giggled so much through this. No joke.

love it

As Lennon told biographer Hunter Davies in 1968, “I’d been kingpin up to then. Now, I thought, if I take him on, what will happen? It went through my head that I’d have to to keep him in line if I let him join. But he was good, so he was worth having. He also looked like Elvis. I dug him.”

It's more Danny Zucko meets Frodon Saquet, but other than that great cast.

Thank God, the two geniuses met!

These guys should start a band

My dad was in the quarry men

can someone please tell me what type of guitar is john playing here? i mean the brand awesome looking guitar

Sul quel prato ci sono stato due volte........ho anche incontrato Giulia Baird la sorella di John.....

My father asked his Uncle how old he was back in the 1970's. I was just a kid. His Uncle said "59 and a half." LOVE YA JACK!

Kickass stars in this.
