Come see the 1964 comedy starring the Beatles in their first full-length, hilarious actionpacked film! Sound Opinions’ co-hosts Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot will be on hand to present the film.
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 and John Lennon's wisecracks are well timed. Watching The Beatles getting their first taste of audience frenzy, you understand why the '60s had to happen.
Roger Ebert calls it "one of the great life-affirming landmarks of the movies."
