Last Tuesday, July 6th, marked the 57th anniversary of the official release of The Beatles first movie, A Hard Day’s Night.
The film showed that in addition to being innovative musicians, The Beatles could also act and be funny in a movie format. It was a huge hit and it’s a movie that has stood the test of time. It’s just as funny and it’s still magical to see The Beatles perform the songs in the film.
In honor of this anniversary, I’ve got six links to online articles about the fab film and there’s on link to a video highlighting some mistakes that happened in the film.
Then there’s the MBIP Coming Attractions as to what’s going to happen on the blog next week!
