This is a really heart-warming story about a kind, philosophical teacher that we all would've loved to have had, and a couple lost kids. The tale itself is woven around an attempt to meet his idol, John Lennon, in person. Meeting John Lennon would certainly be a worthy road trip and hooks the action. This film, though, is all about the characters and their serendipitous relationships.
