(Richard Lester, UK 1964, 85 min.)

The Beatles’ first film follows the group over the course of one day as they deal with the pressures of touring, flee from their screaming fans, and perform their most beloved early songs like the title tune, “Can’t Buy Me Love,” and “I Should Have Known Better.” With Richard Lester’s inventive direction and the Fab Four’s charm, it is no wonder that this classic is widely regarded as the best rock ’n’ roll movie ever made.
