In the 1960s, Brian Wilson, leader of The Beach Boys, struggles with emerging psychosis as he begins to craft what will become the group’s masterpiece, 1966’s avant-garde pop classic ‘Pet Sounds’. In the 1980s he battles mental illness under the dubious direction of psychiatrist Eugene Landy (Paul Giammatti) whilst falling in love with car sales rep Melinda Ledbetter (Elizabeth Banks). Paul Dano and John Cusack play the different generations of Wilson in this bold, striking and inventive portrait of the mercurial singer, who defined an era and changed music forever.
