Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
It's spelled "summary" not "summery".
And it IS a love story. The only thing that isn't typical, is the whole movie doesn't revolve around the 2 characters falling in love.
It's also a tribute to The Beatles and all their music. This being said, a lot of other events take place throughout the course of the movie, it's not JUST a love story.
If you watched the movie, it would be much easier to understand.

Its a romance story about a college student and his girlfriend during the Vietnam war. She is against him recruiting, they have issues, etc, but the whole entire soundtrack is remakes of Beatles songs. It was a pretty good movie.

Across the Universe is a movie musical, made as a compilation of Beatles songs. They took like thirty Beatles songs, redid them, and worked them into the plot in some way. So it is a love story- about Jude and Lucy ("Hey Jude", "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"). It's set in the sixties with the war in Vietnam going on. Jude is originally from Liverpool, England but goes to America to find his biological father. He ends up meeting a guy named Max ("Maxwell's Silver Hammer"). Anyway, Jude then meets Lucy, who is Max's sister, and they fall in love. Max gets drafted, and the story goes from there. It's mainly Beatles music telling the story though- there's only like 30 minutes of dialogue altogether.

Go to imdb.com, the BEST site for anything you need to know about movies and actors/actresses. So check it out at that site, and then watch it. Because it's one of my favorite movies! But you have to like the Beatles to like the movie.
