From Wikipedia:

Across the Universe is a 2007 jukebox musical romantic drama film directed by Julie Taymor, centered on songs by the English rock band The Beatles. The script is based on an original story credited to Taymor, Dick Clement, and Ian La Frenais, and based on the song of the same name by Lennon–McCartney. It incorporates 34 compositions originally written by members of The Beatles. The film stars Evan Rachel Wood, Jim Sturgess, Joe Anderson and T.V. Carpio, and introduces Dana Fuchs and Martin Luther McCoy as actors. Cameo appearances are made by Bono, Eddie Izzard, Joe Cocker, and Salma Hayek, among others.

The title on the movie poster references the Beatles’ famous drop-T logo from 1963. It looks like it’s based on Bootle (2001), a free font that expands the wordmark to a full alphabet. Read more about the original logo and the Bootle font adaptation. The secondary typefaces are ITC Avant Garde Gothic for “All you need is love” and “In theaters this fall”, and an unidentified compressed sans for the credits.
