Nowhere Boy (2009)

Nowhere Boy is the 2009 biographical drama tracing John Lennon's restless teenage years in Liverpool before The Beatles ever formed, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson delivering the raw, star-making performance that put him on the map. The film stays rooted in family conflict and early rock and roll rebellion, but it doesn't shy away from Taylor-Johnson's physicality either. One scene collected here catches him fully exposed, a rare glimpse for fans who only came to know him through his later, bigger roles. Worth a look for anyone tracing his career back to where it all started.
