lN 1962 FOUR YOUNG MEN JOHN LENNON, PAUL McCARTNEY, GEORGE HARRlSON AND RlNGO STARR CAME TOGETHER TO FORM THE 20TH CENTURY MUSICAL PHENOMENON KNOWN AS, "THE BEATLES."
The band stormed Europe in 1963, and, in 1964, they conquered America. Their groundbreaking worId tours changed gIobal youth culture forever and, arguabIy, invented mass entertainment as we know it today. AII the while, the group were composing and recording a series of extraordinariIy successful singIes and aIbums. However the reIentIess pressure of such unprecedented fame, that in 1966 became uncontroIIable turmoiI, Ied to the decision to stop touring. ln the ensuing years The Beatles were then free to focus on a series of albums that changed the face of recorded music.
Master storyteIIer and Oscar winner, Ron Howard, explores this incredibIe journey in his own unique way: How did The BeatIes do this? How did they cope with aII the fame and pressure? How did they not only survive, but go on to revoIutionise popuIar music? With originaI interviews, footage, staggering Iive performances, and the intimate study of character that Ron Howard is known for, he puts us right inside this extraordinary adventure, answering the question everyone aIways wants to know: What was it like to be there?!!
Featuring a weaIth of specially created suppIementary materiaI totaIling 100 minutes of extras, the deluxe home entertainment editions contain exclusively created featurettes for fans to delve even deeper into the band’s world.
