The definitive, critical history of the Beatles on film Throughout the sixties, the Beatles were at the heart of the British pop explosion. They have been heralded as the most fundamental cultural force of the decade and as the central innovators of sixties music, fashion, style and social change. Much has been written about the Beatles' contribution to music and pop culture, but until now, one aspect of the group's history has been largely overlooked -- their movies. Between 1964 and 1970, film was central to the Beatles' career, as a means of promoting and disseminating their music, as a source of revenue, and as a way of projecting the group's ever-changing images, attitudes and musical styles. The Beatles Movies is the first critical history of the Beatles' films, and the first to place them within the wider context of British film history. Extensively researched using historical and contemporary sources including original interviews and previously unseen footage, the book also includes rare pictures from the Apple archive and a full filmography and soundtrack discography. This is a book no fan or student of British cinema should miss. -- The first ever comprehensive study of the Beatles' five feature films -- Includes stunning exclusive photos from the Apple archive
