After nearly 45 years, the 1964 motion picture classic "A Hard Day's Night", the screen debut for The Beatles, remains a quinessential film achievement. Produced to capitalize upon the phenomenon known as Beatlemania, the movie tells about a fictionlized variation of 2 days in the lives of John, Paul, George and Ringo. The lads from Liverpool are well represented in this groundbreaking black-and-white masterpiece that still continues to influence into the 21st century. The basic premise deals with the boys taking a train to London, where they are scheduled to appear on a major television special. John, George and Ringo are given their own unique set pieces within the framework of the film, while there are many brilliant moments featuring the group as a whole. There are 7 songs included in the soundtrack; "A Hard Day's Night", "I Should Have Known Better", "If I Fell", "And I Love Her", "Can't Buy Me Love", "I'm Happy Just To Dance With You" and "Tell Me Why". An 8th song written for the film, "I'll Cry Instead", is featured as the background music selection for a series of still photos from the movie, created as a unique opening prologue. Other songs include "I Wanna Be Your Man", "Don't Bother Me", "All My Loving" and "She Loves You". The film would go on to earn 2 Oscar nominations, for the original screenplay by Alun Owen and the instrumental score adaptation by George Martin. "A Hard Day's Night" just might be the greatest rock 'n' roll movie ever made!Read full review
