Warning: Spoilers
"Across the Universe" is a 4.5-minute music video from almost 20 years ago starring the then 20-year-old singer Fiona Apple. But the real star is the director: Paul Thomas Anderson. The whole thing is in black-and-white and shows a gang of young people demolishing a restaurant, while, when we don't see them, we see Apple singing. The chorus is a bit on the catchy side, but other than that there is nothing too memorable about this song, let alone the very forgettable music video. Guess even with a genius director like Paul Thomas Anderson, not everyone can be a winner. He made several music videos for Apple by the way. Hopefully the other ones are better. Not recommended.

Addition a couple days later: The song is pretty catchy indeed and stuck in my head, that's why I adjusted the rating and gave 2 more stars.
