Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 2000 TV Movie depicting a fictionalised version of an afternoon and evening that John Lennon (Jared Harris) spent with Paul McCartney (Aidan Quinn) in New York City in 1976. This was the occasion when they happened to be watching Saturday Night Live, on the night that Lorne Michaels offered The Beatles $6000 if they'd play three songs on the show: this incident is dramatised in the movie, and forms part of its dramatic climax.It was written by Beatles fan Mark Stanfield and directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, who'd directed Let It Be and therefore had some first-hand knowledge of his subject matter. Thanks to a surprisingly well-informed and sensitive script, and some fine performances from the two leads—the whole film is practically a two-hander between John and Paul—it's one of the better fictional depictions of the Beatles. Most reviewers agreed that what could have been a terrible exercise in bad accents and celebrity impersonation was in fact a sympathetic and well-crafted piece of drama.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other | |
| Two of Us / int_10dcbe05 | comment |
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: There's one strikingly early on, when John's sneers at Paul's music and general attitude get Paul so annoyed that he storms out of the apartment and goes down to the lobby. He then hesitates, and decides to go up and give John a last piece of his mind. He finds John outside the apartment, putting on his shoes, preparing to come down to him. They stare at each other for a moment, then John says "Well, come on then," and they go back into the apartment to continue the argument. | |

Armor-Piercing Response: When John takes off his glasses and asks Paul what he sees, Paul gives one of these in reply. See You Are Better Than You Think You Are, below. | |

Achilles in His Tent | |

Achilles in His Tent: Other people treat John as if he is this, with a fan in the coffee shop asking him if he's ever going to come out of retirement. Paul recognises that John is in fact trying to be a good husband and father. | |

Angst: A good chunk of the film is devoted to John owning up to the fact that he suffers from this. | |

Affectionate Nickname | |
| Two of Us / int_dcd423d2 | comment |
Affectionate Nickname: John addresses Paul as "Macca" and refers to Yoko Ono as "Mother"; the latter of these at any rate is Truth in Television. | |
