hamster Posted 25 April, 2011 Share Posted 25 April, 2011 Sums upmmy weekend really and strangely the film is n right now, BBC2 Great music if a little lame on the writing side. Younger posters excused for their ignorance of all things Beatles but NOT excused for not making amends by watching this classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster Posted 26 April, 2011 Author Share Posted 26 April, 2011 /\ nah. Just been a long hot weekend with me working two of the dehydrating days. Was dehydrating last night with a couple down the cricketers and a nice cheap red from the wine cellar at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton Saint Posted 27 April, 2011 Share Posted 27 April, 2011 (edited) Yeah, some of the writing was lame, but it was interesting that the fellow that wrote the script (Alun Owen - I think he was a Liverpudlian) tried to give a down-to-earth sense of what their life was like at the time. It wasn't the kind of fluffy romantic comedy/fantasy you might see in a Cliff Richard (and the Shadows!) film! The LP A Hard Day's Night was significant because all the songs on the album (first side consisting of songs they wrote for the film, second side of other songs written at the time) were written by John, Paul and George. No covers! Quite an accomplishment for the period. Edited 27 April, 2011 by Hamilton Saint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
