This study in full force fame concentrates on the years through August 1966, when the Beatles quit touring after a run that left thousands of screaming fans with sore throats. Though other artists – Sinatra, Presley – inspired the same response, the pace and scale of the Beatles is astonishing. Interviews and archival clips reveal their wild ride. 2016, USA, 99 minutes, documentary
PLUS, unavailable on DVD, streaming or VOD, the legendary 1965 The Beatles Live at Shea Stadium (30 min.), a concert previously seen only by people who witnessed it live.

“Enchanting” – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
“The Beatles now belong to a.n honored past, stuck there like an obelisk, and yet here they are, alive—busting out all over, time and time again. Yeah, yeah, yeah.” – Anthony Lane, The New Yorker
“The music is so strong, and such a demonstration of how potent the group was in action, that it alone makes the film worth seeing.“ – Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
