John literally sniffing coke, Ringo being too pure for this world, Paul having a Shakespeare moment, and George stealing the show the way only George can. 💕
Didn’t you realize that John Lennon was playing with a toy submarine in the bathtub that foreshadows the Beatles animated movie Yellow Submarine which would come out 4 years after Hard Day’s Night
I always love the bit with the cranky old lad on the train. Cranky old lad : ‘I fought the war for your sort’ Ringo : ‘I bet you’re sorry we won’ Best. Comeback. Ever. 😂😂😂
Slake is THE TIME OF A DAY TO STARTING the point where we have a lot to learn and then we can make a great game of people and then we can feel it again we are the same as the earth earth and the birds and the other birds are so much better then birds 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Give us a kiss." How could you leave out the part where John goes into the one compartment on the train that's full of girls and as Paul's pulling him out of the room John says "I bet ya can't guess what I'm in for. Ha ha ha ha!"?
@@Mr3sheds Most of the script was written by Alun Owen together with the lads where they stayed at his house for a weekend, which had been a scheduled arrangement by the producers or the studio. It's really a collaborative work between the five of them. Though some ad-libbing still happened on the set.
I can remember back in 1964 going to the cinema to watch this 3 times in the first week it was released. I would have gone more if I could have afforded it. We had never seen or heard anything like these guys before. It felt like the dawning of a new era and that's precisely what was happening.
I was surprisingly taken aback by this comment. I watched this movie in my Rock & Roll History class, and I didn't even think about the fact that it's black and white. Like it never crossed my mind when the movie started, "oh, it's black and white" and i didn't think about or notice it through the entirety of the movie. Only when I read this comment did I realize it. So weird lol can't explain it
Ringos laugh when he says “if he’s your grandfather who knows” is bloody adorable and the whole film is amazing I watch it literally every night two times because it’s to addicting to me 🤧💕
Anybody catch the irony in the scene where the "manager" says, "stay away from those girls, John or I'll tell your mother on you." ??? At the time, John didn't have a mother, she died seven years earlier. See how they wanted the Beatles to just seem like they were just like "everyone else." Common folk. Interesting.
Yes we all noticed,But tell me did you laugh throughout these scenes?I did and that's what the Beatles wanted to do be happy and think there life forward.
Anyone know the insider joke of everyone always saying Paulie's grandfather was "very clean"? Well, if you're British you'd probably know, but since most of us here aren't, the joke was that the actor playing grandfather was veteran actor Wilfrid Brambell. He was well known in Britain for playing Steptoe in the comedy series Steptoe & Son (the inspiration for Sanford & Son in the states). His character in the series was always referred to as "a dirty old man", thus the insider joke in his role as Paulie's grandfather.
What about the part where the guy is measuring a suit and he is holding out the tape then John comes along with his scissors, cutting it in half saying 'This bridge is now open' in a high pitched voice.
+Ellie Louise Or the bits with George: She's a drag, a well-known drag Hey, you won't interfere with the basic rugged concept of me personality, will you madam? They're dead grotty!, et cetera. Or where John starts to sign to Paul on bended knee (If I Fell), or... well, loads of other stuff too, really.
CdePausNL and the part between Ringo and George on the train: George: Ah, you've got an inferiority complex, you have. Ringo: Yeah, I know, that's why I play the drums - it's me active compensatory factor.
In the Anthology interviews, Paul said he was a little surprised by how well the movie turned out, since the four of them weren’t actors. Well, they weren’t professionals and hadn’t been trained, but they acted quite well. Paul himself had this repertoire of head-bobs that served him really well - check out that slight nod to Grandfather at 0:09. Very subtle.
You just had to give yourselves. There was a lot of fooling around in them, because they were only 20-22 years old. We Hungarians say (I don't know how well it comes across in English): youth is folly!😄
This movie was the first time that id ever learned that the beatles were not only in a couple movies but that they were charming fun young boys and i gained a lot of likeness for them after i saw this. I never knew they were so fun! Also the kid like behavior that John puts out was rly unexpected lmao
Emma W. A little sarcastic perhaps in the style of the Fabs themselves but not rude. Yeah, it's been noticed quite a bit.Sniffing "coke" geddit? boom tish.
In the USA, it was quite weird to hear the Beatles' speaking voices because they were comprehensible when they sang, but for about the first 5 or 10 minutes of this movie you couldn't understand what they were saying when they talked. I was also quite puzzled by the sudden intrusion of surrealism when they appeared outside the train window, asking to get their ball back. Of course I was only 11 years old at the time.
@@toddkurzbard Nope, they say "Hey Mister, can we have our wall ball back." Because, he was being a grouchy old man, when he wasn't letting them play music, fair enough but he seemed entitled. So I guess they were making fun of him and also the type of people who wouldn't let you get your ball from their garden as a kid.
I remember seeing this as a kid when it first came out in theaters, but it wasn't till years later when I understood the irony of it. Here the Beatles are in 1964 making their first movie, full boyish charm and humor on display, but even at this point they were getting tired of the endless tours and routine. The double-edged scenes where mountains of fan mail were dumped on them in their hotel room and being told to get to work answering them all, the manager always trying to herd them together to the next gig, and the scene where they sneak out the back door and Ringo says, "We're OUT!" just to get a few minutes away from the relentless schedule. It would be hard on anybody to keep that pace up.
I have memories of watching this when it was shown on TV in the 60s. I remember it was in the middle of summer and very hot and we didn't have central air so we slept in the living room and watched it. Love the fact that the Beatles have intertwined with my life experiences.
I caught that too. I wonder if Paul had any hesitations in saying his line "Well, me mother thought the trip would do him good" all the way back in the beginning of the film in the train.
Rings ridiculous laugh after his line kills me every single time. It’s so hilariously awkward - like the portrayal of Mozart’s goofy horsey laugh in Amadeus.
@4:02 omg when the lady asked Ringo "Are you a mod or a rocker?" Ringo: "Oh no I'm a mocker" *I COULD NOT STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS IN SCHOOL TODAY,IS IT JUST ME?*
Saudia Tate (especially in the early 1960s) a young person of a subculture characterized by stylish dress, the riding of motor scooters, and a liking for soul music.
a subculture that was huge in London 1960s. They were technically a gang, and would often get into huge street fights with rockers, not all were like that but the rivalry was bad. Mods dressed fancy, took uppers, dressed sophisticated. Rockers was kinda the opposite, clean cut.
Love George's pronunciation: "He's very fOOssy about his drOOms" :-D I also liked the scene in which he got to a TV show casting by mistake and was told to give "his" opinion about clothes for youth, and then George said about shirts they were "dead grotty" and stuff.
Cannot even believe they left out the very best part where George wanders in to an area where they begin asking him questions about clothes, youth culture, etc., and he totally turns them on their heads. Especially in that accent of his! I was always quite fond of George. My new Beetle is named in his honour.❤❤❤😊
