yes. julie tamore usually produces operas. the love story was silly and contrived to fit the songs--but i don't care! the reinterpretation of beatle songs was fresh and inviting. i bought the soundtrack 2cds for ten bucks at amazon, can't beat the price; i play it in the car.
best visual part of the movie was the psychedelic end titles. dont turn off the dvd too early!
