Jim Sturgess Movies
American audiences first caught suave and dashing British actor
Jim Sturgess via his portrayal of Jude -- the paternally shorn young man who travels to the U.S. amid the raging throes of the late '60s and falls in love with musician Lucy (
Evan Rachel Wood) -- in
Julie Taymor's hallucinatory
Beatles drama
Across the Universe (2007). This indeed represented
Sturgess' preeminent international bow, but prior to it, he sustained almost a decade of roles in British productions -- mostly telefilms -- including I'm Frank Morgan (2000), Hawkins (2001), and the three installments of the
Quest series. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
