Director:
Richard Lester
Writer:
Alun Owen
Plot summary
"A Hard Day's Night" captured Beatlemania
as it was happening, and more than four decades later,
it remains a peerlessly zesty rock 'n' roll fable.
Director Richard Lester's jump cuts now seem
exhilarating as Jean-Luc Godard's,
John Lennon's wisecracks as well timed
as Groucho Marx's. Yet this original Fab Four movie
is innocent in a way no other later rock 'n' roll film could be,
and much of the credit must go to the thousands
of screaming teenage girls in the audience--
the ones who's lips form
such magical words as "John!" and "Paul!" and "George!"
and "Ringo!" while tears stream down their cheeks.
When Lennon and McCartney shake their mop tops in
unison after the line "She loves you, and you know you
should be glad!" it sends the audience into hyperspace.
Watching these Liverpool Lads get their first taste
of audience frenzy, you understand why the '60s had to happen.
