       Across the Universe is a 2007 jukebox musical romantic drama film directed by Julie Taymor, centered on songs by the Beatles. The script is based on an original story credited to Taymor, Dick Clement, and Ian La Frenais, and based on the song of the same name by Lennon–McCartney. It incorporates 34 compositions originally written by members of the Beatles. The film stars Evan Rachel Wood, Jim Sturgess, Joe Anderson and T.V. Carpio, and introduces Dana Fuchs and Martin Luther McCoy as actors. Cameo appearances are made by Bono, Eddie Izzard, Joe Cocker, and Salma Hayek, among others.

        Across the Universe premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 14, 2007, and was theatrically released in the United States on October 12 by Columbia Pictures. The film received mixed reviews from critics, with many praising the visuals, cast and singing performances, though criticized the plot and direction. The film was a major box-office bomb, failing to earn even half of its total production budget at the box office. The film received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and an Oscar nomination for Best Costume Design. Two members of the supporting cast, Carol Woods and Timothy T. Mitchum, performed as part of a special Beatles tribute at the 50th Grammy Awards.

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you

Tomorrow I'll miss you

Remember I'll always be true

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

I'll pretend that I'm kissing

The lips I am missing

And hope that my dreams will come true

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

All my loving, I will send to you

All my loving, darling, I'll be true

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you

Tomorrow I'll miss you

Remember I'll always be true

And then while I'm away

I'll write home everyday

And I'll send all my loving to you

All my loving, I will send to you

All my loving, darling, I'll be true

All my loving, all my loving

All my loving, I will send to you

"Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet", also known as "A Time for Us", is an instrumental arranged by Henry Mancini (from Nino Rota's music written for Franco Zeffirelli's film of Romeo and Juliet, starring Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey). It was a number-one pop hit in the United States during the year 1969. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart on June 28, 1969, and remained there for two weeks; it was also his only Top Ten single on that chart.

Rearranged by Mancini, the song started competing with rock and roll songs from The Beatles and the Rolling Stones on an Orlando, Florida radio station and spread from there. It faced stiff opposition from some radio stations for being too soft. Those stations had to change their mind when the song became number one, ending the five-week run of Get Back by the Beatles as the top song.

This release also topped the U.S. easy listening chart for eight weeks where it was Mancini's sole number one on the chart.

A time for us some day there'll be

When chains are torn by courage born of a love that's free

A time when dreams so long denied and flourish

As we unveil the love we now must hide

A time for us at last to see

A life worthwhile for you and me

And with our love through tears and thorns

We will endure as we pass surely through every storm

A time for us someday there'll be

A new world, a world of shining hope for you and me

A time for us some day there'll be

A new world, a world of shining hope for you and me.

"Moon River" é uma música composta por Henry Mancini com letra de Johnny Mercer em 1961. Foi interpretado no filme Breakfast at Tiffany's por Audrey Hepburn, a estrela dos filmes, enquanto a própria música ganhou o Óscar de Melhor Canção Original daquele ano por Mercer e Mancini. O sucesso da música foi responsável pela re-estréia da carreira de Mercer como compositor, que fez sucesso em meados de 1950 com a substituição do rock and roll pelo jazz padrão como a música popular da época.

Mercer e Mancini inicialmente escreveram a música para Hepburn adaptar o alcance limitado da voz da atriz (Hepburn não era uma talentosa e estabelecida cantora). "Moon River" é introduzido por Hepburn durante a sequência onde o personagem de George Peppard, Paul 'Fred' Varjak, encontra Holly Golightly (Hepburn) cantando (com seu violão) na janela do seu apartamento.

Ainda que uma seleção original para o álbum Breakfast at Tiffany's fosse lançada, ela não contém a versão original de Hepburn. Entretanto, uma versão gravada por Mancini e seu coro foi lançada como uma canção e tornou-se uma música muito conhecida nos anos 60.

Subsequentemente, ela foi lançada pelo cantor sul-africano Danny Williams, que foi o nº 1 do Reino Unido. Logo após, Andy Williams (sem relação) foi quem fez da música um grande sucesso também (do mesmo modo longe de fazer sucesso igual à música-tema). Muitos outros artistas, incluindo Frank Sinatra, The Afghan Whigs, Morrissey, REM, Bradley Joseph, Victoria Williams e The Innocence Mission também fizeram suas versões da música. Ela esteve apenas alguns meses depois da morte de Hepburn em 1993 da qual a versão original foi finalmente lançada em um álbum. Apesar dos dois sucessos de Williams com a música, para muitos, a simples gravação de Hepburn é considerada a performance absoluta.

Uma entrada próxima de Savannah, Georgia, cidade natal de Johnny Mercer, foi nomeada "Moon River" em honra de sua música. Williams depois nomeou sua companhia de produção em Branson, Missouri depois da sua música.

Moon river, wider than a mile

I'm crossin' you in style someday

Oh, dream maker, you heartbreaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after the same rainbow's end

Waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend

Moon River, and me

Moon river, wider than a mile

I'm crossin' you in style someday

Oh, dream maker, you heartbreaker

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world

There's such a lot of world to see

We're after the same rainbow's end

Waitin' 'round the bend

My huckleberry friend

Moon River, and me.

Iske rauta, synny rauta,

Synny kuumassa tulessa.

Iske rauta, nouse maasta,

Synny povissa luonnotarten.

Iske rauta, tapporauta,

Iskemällä sinä synnyt.

Iske rauta, musta rauta,

Kuuma tervan polttorauta.

Iske, iske, iske, iske….

Iske!

Kolme rautaa iskekäähän,

Teidät iski ilmarinen.

Iskeäkseen nosti maasta

Jäljistä petojen jalkain.

Iske rauta, synny rauta,

Muutu kuumassa tulessa.

Vanno rauta, tapporauta,

Älä koskaan omia iske.

Iske rauta, vaskirauta,

Iskuista teräsi saanet.

Iske rauta niin punainen,

Kuuman polton poikkirauta.

Iske rauta kauniin kirkas,

Iskuista sinäkin synnyt.

Iske rauta valkehinen,

Teroitettu tapporauta.

Iskuista sinäkin synnyt,

Iske, iske,

Iskuista sinäkin synnyt,

Iske, iske, iske!

Kolme rautaa iskekäähän,

Teidät iski ilmarinen.

Iskeäkseen nosti maasta

Jäljistä petojen jalkain.

Iske rauta, synny rauta,
Muutu kuumassa tulessa.
Vanno rauta, tapporauta,
Älä koskaan omia iske.
