In the late 1960s, the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson stops touring, produces "Pet Sounds" and begins to lose his grip on reality. By the 1980s, under the sway of a controlling therapist, he finds a savior in Melinda Ledbetter.
A really interesting love story. A really interesting story of mental illness. And somehow, it misses its potential like an underachiever. I loved the sound track though.
