Yes, as Ripose mentioned, the film is titled
Love and Mercy. I saw it a few weeks ago and loved it. I adore the Beach Boys. I place them in the same category as the Beatles. Pet Sounds is one of my favorite albums. I knew nothing of Brian Wilson's life prior to the movie. His life is sadly beautiful, the movie, also sadly beautiful. I highly recommend it. I related to it well. I did find it entirely triggering in parts; it is incredibly close to life with mental illness. There is a scene where Brian is sitting at a table with his wife and numerous friends eating dinner. The clanking of the silverware overpowers him and he simply cannot cope with it. Everything about the scene, from the timing to the acting, is brilliant and perfect. I highly recommend this movie! If you are a fan of The Beach Boys and/or Brian Wilson, beware, you will be sucked deeper in.
Here is the scene (caution, it may be VERY triggering):
