Our fascination with The Beatles seems endless. Just recently there was the revelatory "Get Back" & "McCartney 3,2,1" docuseries that offered a peek "behind the curtain", cleared up some misconceptions and offered deep insight into the band's genius.
And now comes this new movie from Martin Scorsese which looks like it will capture the JOY of The Beatles during their first visit to America, which can't be understated in its importance. This looks like it's going to be fun!! Check it out:
