McCartney changed 'Nowhere Boy' script

Paul McCartney has revealed that his objections caused the Nowhere Boy script to be changed.

The film examines the relationship between John Lennon and his Aunt Mimi, who raised him from the age of five.

However, McCartney told the movie's director Sam Taylor-Wood that he was unhappy with the portrayal of Lennon's aunt, the Daily Mail reports.

"I said, 'Sam, this isn't true'," McCartney explained. "Aunt Mimi was not cruel. She was mock strict. But she was a good heart who loved John madly."

Taylor-Wood reportedly changed the script to show Mimi in a more positive light. However, she allegedly argued with McCartney about other parts of the film and he is said to have declined her invitation to see the movie.
