About
The Beatles star in their debut feature film which serves as a satirical mockumentary following a day-in-the-life of band mates George, Paul, John, and Ringo. The comedy was directed by Richard Lester.
Trivia
The picture was filmed in a cinéma vérité style in black-and-white. In order to obtain a U certificate for theatrical screenings a phrase was edited out of the film due to its inappropriate nature.
