THE BEATLES FILMS.

A HARD DAYS NIGHT.

        This film was shot in black and white, 'A hard days night' didn't test the Beatles acting abilities, given the lightweight story line, written by TV veteran Alum Owen about a group venturing to the ' big city ' to appear on a TV variety show.

    Ringo Starr was the only one allowed any creative freedom. Some talented British actors appeared in the cameo roles, but it was the musical content that stood out and the quirky direction of the film proved to be an ideal foil for the bands' talents.
 

HELP.

    This was the 2nd film for the Beatles. The film had an outrageous plot, religious fanatics hot on the groups heels, who have come into possession of a magical ring, this film again contained the best of British comedy actors in character roles.
