Yesterday | Ed Sheeran's Songwriting Competition in 4K HDR

Daniel Day Lewis killed it as Ed Sheeran. He is truly the greatest actor of our time.

Hats off to Ed for taking this role.

I like how Jack finishes singing and there is dead silence because everyone realises they've just heard one of the greatest songs ever written, and it was written (as far as they know) effectively before their eyes.

I don't know Sheeran's music, but his willingness to appear in this film as the person who is able to sustain the humiliation of someone flying in unbelievable work, and admitting it, shows that he is a huge fan of the Beatles and not too stuck on himself. It is a highly commendable signal.

The actor who plays Ed Sheeran really looks like Ed Sheeran. Great casting!!!

Gotta love how Ed’s attitude is so humble… man no one can compare himself to The Beatles, plain and simple

I like Ed Sheeran, but the long and winding road is a masterpiece, he straight up ended Ed right there

The most touching thing about this scene is Jack's look at the end, the guilt he feels towards Ed.

"Hm, I could maybe pull out out 'Yellow Submarine' or 'Octopus's garden' "Soon to be defeated Jack Malik!" "Long and Winding Road it is"

You know, I genuinely felt bad for Ed during this scene, there was a lot of honest feeling in his voice. . . But then he suggested Hey Dude and my pity left me

Man. Ed Sheeran did a GREAT acting job here. You felt his pain but also his humility.

I love Ed's humbleness, I think he himself wouldn't compare his own writing ability to Paul's even though he's a genius himself

I loved this scene. and he really played it well. I mean no one in their right mind is going to compare to that song. but ed really captures the heart wrenching sting as if it was real. for a singer he is also a hell of an actor. I mean he is sitting there and it's like the dagger is sticking out of his chest and he is telling someone to shag they guy and then he fucking twists the knife himself with the Mozart/ Salieri line! talk about ballsy! seriously great acting by Ed!

I like how Ed Sheeran delivers this mixture of hurt artist's vanity and spot-on instinct that something isn't right here. Genius is supposed to show in a person, right, so how can it be that this Jack guy who seems so slow and uninpired when you talk to him just gives out epic songs as if he were handing out pizza leaflets at a street corner? Great scene.

It is taken for granted how great these versions are. The composition and the singing wasn't something just thrown together. It isn't a simple knock off. These are beautifully crafted versions. Himesh Patel is fantastic. I love these more simplistic versions. Patel has the voice to pull them off without the full orchestras and back up singers. He makes it believable that the songs are great enough to transcend time and trends. The original storyline was that Jack still doesn't achieve success even with these songs. That was realistic; but I love this fantasy.

A bit understated in these clips, but I love how powerful the Russian guy's emotions were, just his facial expression, realizing that no, he's not crazy... that the Beatles must have actually existed.

Ed taking this role brought me great respect for him. He’s not comparing himself to the Beatles, because, well, no one can.

I love the salieri and Mozart comparison. Having watch Amadeus movie over and over brings back quite a memory

My favorite part of the movie. We know he didn't write The Long and Winding Road, but I was delighted by how Jack totally obliterates Ed just with the first verse.

Seen this movie at least 4 times in its entirety and I am still fascinated by the video clips from it. I mean as a kid I used to fantasies about being a huge music star with songs that I could go back in time with and people could hear for the first time and then suddenly this movie appeared. Just an amazing film that hopefully will be seen by more and more people as time goes on.
