original beatles reviews

It's funny to think these asshats probably still stand by their reviews!

Don't let the Beatles bother you. If you don't think about them, they will go away, and in a few more years they will probably be bald….

And teenagers, go ahead and enjoy your Beatlemania. It won't be fatal and will give you a lot of laughs a few years hence when you find one of their old records or come across a picture of Ringo in a crew cut.
 
Impressions? Haven't seen it yet, but was hoping it went back further than their fame (Cavern Club, Hamburg etc)
/had a teacher in HS that brought in Polaroids of them in Cleveland 64 or 5. Her dad worked in radio and took her to a meet and greet somewhere. She said she was 13 and the only kid there and she was scared to talk to them.

I'm not a Beatles fanatic so there was some new stuff for me. There was some footage from the Cavern, but nothing pre-Ringo. It was a pretty well-done doc. Most folks seem to focus on the later works, but I really like the stuff where it's just a great band playing great tunes. That's the main focus of the movie...and its really hard to see how anyone could remain a "Ringo Basher" after seeing it.
