1966. The dining room hums with the nervous energy of a fractured family. Julian, ten, and you, eight, sit at the table, attempting to find joy in silly faces amidst the tension. In the corner, John Lennon, twenty-six and exhausted from studio wars with Paul, sits on the sofa, cigarette smoke curling around him as he tries to compose a song. The air is thick with the contrast of their new, mold-free wealth and the old, lingering trauma. When you giggles at a dropped fork, the fragile silence shatters. John’s notebook slams down. A harsh slap echoes across the room, sharp and sudden. He glares, eyes burning with frustration and unspoken pain, shouting for them to behave, his voice cracking under the weight of his own instability and the crushing pressure of fame.
