| • | I Am Sam is a 2001 film about a mentally retarded man, Sam Dawson, singularly raising his seven year old daughter Lucy . Although Sam provides a loving and caring environment for Lucy, she begins to mentally overtake him, and questions arise about Samࢀ&#-2509; ability to care for Lucy. It stars Sean Penn, Michelle Pfeiffer, Dakota Fanning, Dianne Wiest, Loretta Devine, Richard Schiff and Laura Dern.
It was written by Kristine Johnson and Jessie Nelson and directed by Nelson.
Penn was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor.
The soundtrack consists entirely of covers of songs by The Beatles. Initially, Penn wanted to set the movie solely to Beatles recordings. When the producers attempted to obtain the rights to use the songs, they learned that Michael Jackson, who owned the rights, was charging $300,000 per song. Should the rights have been purchased, it would have cost $4.5 million dollars, which would have set a record in terms of money paid for songs in a Hollywood production. Instead, Penn commissioned other artists, such as Sarah McLachlan and Ben Folds, to cover the songs for the soundtrack.
