I can't find this mentioned anywhere on here if it is I'm sorry
Just want to say I find this film very good it's the best Lennon lookalike I've sen in film apart from the John and yoko love story I do wish one day there would be mentioned about ringo coming into the group from ringos point of view this hardly ever gets mentioned

Would to read your thoughts on ths matter

Life is what happens when your busy making other plans

Is that the one from the 70's that Pete Best was involved in, helping out with details etc? Stephen someone played John?

If so for years i had a copy of it taped of a BBC screening and liked it initially. However the more i got into the Beatles the more it irritated the heck out of me. If Best was meant to be helping ensure the historical accuracy he did a crap job from what i can remember.

It was on one of the non-sky movie channels a few weeks ago and i turned it off after about 3 minutes. I get so annoyed seeing these beatles films as all i end up getting really worked up, shouting at the screen "THAT WAS A PAUL SONG!!!!!", "THAT DIDNT HAPPEN!!!!!", "JOHN WOULD NEVER HAVE SAID THAT!!!!!!".

Its not worth the heart pains and sore throat.

"Well, probably we'll sell less records, less people'll go to see the film, we'll write less songs, and we'll all die of failure" (John Lennon 8/64)

That is hilarious. It is also the same reason why my wife won't watch movies about the Beatles with me!

Poetic license in movies about anything other topic is one thing…but don't mess with my Beatles!!! blue-meanie

This was made for ABC-TV in 1979, and they rebroadcast it in December 1980 shortly after John was shot. I watched it then but can remember absolutely nothing about it, apart from being surprised to learn of the existence of a Beatle named "Stu" (my knowledge was very limited at the time.) Also I had trouble understanding some of the accents.

I like black music, disco music. I like the disco music that's out now - John Lennon, 1975
