The year is 1964 and four young lads from Liverpool are about to change
the world - if only the madcap world will let them out of their hotel
room. Richard Lester's boldly contemporary rock n' roll comedy unleashes
the fledgling Beatles into a maelstrom of screaming fans, paranoid
producers, rabid press and troublesome family members, and reveals the
secret of their survival and success: an insatiable lust for mischief
and a life-affirming addiction to joy.
