The swimmer who came up out of the ice for a moment looking for the White Cliffs of Dover was their bodyguard Mal Evans. He was also a generic assistant and roadie.

This was the first movie I ever saw. As well as Help being the first song I ever heard. I could go as far as to say it’s my favorite song ever. I vividly remember when I was like 3 years old watching this movie and listening to the album so many times because I loved it so much. I think a hard day’s night is my favorite Beatles movie, but I still love help. A hard days night has always been my favorite though. I turn 15 in 8 days and I’m proud to have been introduced to these masterpieces as well as talking about them with friends.

There was an earlier, older Beatle recording called, She's a Woman that was being played on a tape machine in a different location to make it sound like The Beatles were at that location. This was when The Beatles were playing, The Night Before, surrounded by all the protective tanks.

I cracked up just from you announcing the title of the movie! 🤣 You hit it on the head......John Lennon said they felt like guest stars in their own movie. It probably didn't help that they were stoned throughout it (look at their eyes! In some scenes you can totally tell) But the visual style is so cool, as you say, there are some laughs....and they basically create the music video as we know it! So it's not all a wash! :P But yeah, the whole Indian thing didn't age well.....although it's through this movie that George Harrison fell in love with Indian culture, which led to The Beatles going to India etc etc. (I know you know all this!) Anyways, because of all that, The Beatles are pretty beloved in India! So I think all is forgiven, at least! You are so on the money about the music and the lyrics. The "nostalgic" feel of "You're Gonna Lose That GIrl". LOVE what you said about the lyrics! And even moreso "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away"! John Lennon, oh man.....what a soul! Anyways, definitely a fun reaction, even if it's an imperfect movie. And a BIG yes to Yellow Submarine!!!! Much, much better! Dazzling and resplendent!!! (sorry this was so long)

not as good as "a hard day's night" but this a REAL good film in its own right - as a parody of james bond, secret agent films that were all the rage in the 60s and beyond. the beatles and james bond shared many links as they were both british and both grew in popularity at the same time. its also while filming the "indian" restauraunt scene that first got george curious and interested in indian music and the hindu religion. the dude that keeps popping up asking for directions to "the white cliffs of dover" is mal evans. the beatles' trusty roadie, gofer and confidant. in 1967 eleanor bron, who plays the leading lady, co-starred with the british comedy duo dudley moore and peter cook in the HILARIOUS film "bedazzled." a modern comedic retelling of the faustian legend. and in 1966 richard lester, the film's director, directed the EXCELLENT musical-comedy "a funny thing happened on the way to the forum." its bawdy, full of sexual innuendos and sight gags. i HIGHLY recommend BOTH FILMS! other reactors don't react to these great films. TAKE THE LEAD! thanks for the video.

@@dakotawestbrook6144 Actually it isn't, and anyway, the influence went both ways. Bollywood, anybody? Go look at the Bollywood version of I Want To Hold Your Hand, which came out before Help. Is that "cultural appropriation"? (or how about all the bands all over the globe that were Beatle rip offs?) Ravi Shankar immediately became way more world famous than he ever had, he practically became a household name, and he certainly made a lot more money for the rest of his life. They went to India and introduced half the planet to Transcendental Meditation.....which people are only now starting to getting into! All these yoga classes everybody takes? Interest in Eastern philosophy? Girls wearing Indian-print dresses, which they still do? Etc etc? That all goes back to The Beatles in the mid-late 60s, 1000%. Where the hell do you think it came from? Social Studies class? Art is about fusion, nothing comes out of a vaccum. When Ravi Shankar periodically would write pieces for orchestra, is that cultural appropriation? How about when Coltrane or Miles is influenced by Indian music? It's not where you get it from, it's what you do with it. The Beatles gave back more than they ever took, invented more than they ever "stole".....one bit of proof is that every single song they ever put out (literally) has been covered multiple times, in every conceivable style of music you can imagine. In India, The Beatles are beloved. (So was Peter Sellers, by the way.)

This movie was generally a spoof on James Bond movies at the time only Beatles style. Ticket to Ride was a #1 hit in Spring of 1965. u s older folk find it hard to believe you wouldn't know at least the big hits, 20 of them....The movie was NOT made to be ageless but to make a quick buck before the Beatles "fad" died out. that was the attitude. It was aimed at the kids in cartoonish fashion.

Lennon was genuinely crying out for help when he wrote 'Help'. In interviews, he mentioned that he didn’t realize it at the time, but he was expressing his feelings of insecurity and stress with the new fame. Just listen to the lyrics. You in the path of that hurricane? I heard it was going to hit North Carolina. Hope you're safe.🙏

As with your reaction to A Hard Day's Night, I really enjoyed your reaction during this movie and. your comments afterwards. This movie was not considered generally to be as good as A Hard Day's Night. It, however, both influenced and reflected Swinging London of the mid 60s, where popular culture was becoming more avant-garde. I always thought the movie songs were very good. The Beatles seemed to be able to turn out great songs by order. Often there were two albums in a year. Yellow Submarine takes the culture change much further, as do the albums from Rubber Soul onward.

The Beatles wrote such relatable songs. The Stones and Beatles had an on going rivalry in the media but behind the scenes were great friends. Monty Python couldn't get financing for their first film " The Holy Grail ". George Harrison read the script and decided to invest in this movie because he wanted to see it. Curious to see hear your thoughts on this comedy classic.

So I had this movie on VHS as a kid, and I watched it a lot! But I probably haven't actually watched it in over twenty years. I do love how silly and weird this movie is. You are right though, it hasn't aged well, which is definitely something I didn't get as kid. Also, I would LOVE it if you reacted to Yellow Submarine!!! Unlike this movie, Yellow Submarine is rather timeless, and it remains one of my favorite movies of all time, to this day! I still watch it a few times a year, because I enjoy it so much! It's definitely one of the most unique and imaginative animated movies of the 60's, and I think you'll love it! I love that movie so much I even have the limited-run Lego set of the Yellow Submarine itself that came out like 10 years ago! (I'm an embarrassing nerd)

Hi Camerin, I wanted to mention this movie before it slips my mind. Have you ever seen Tommy (1975)? It's the theatrical version of The Who's rock opera. Jack Nicholson, Elton John and Tina Turner had roles in it. It's pretty trippy, so it's honestly hard for me to guess whether you'd like it (it's one of those movies people tend to love or hate). There's a bit of irony that this cult classic is about a cult. And a little fun fact to link with The Beatles, Ringo Starr's son became the drummer for The Who in the 90's.

Delightful, as always. You're so much fun. I'm glad you're experiencing these Beatles films. I was never a big fan of this one, even though the soundtrack is great. They tried to cash in on the James Bond craze of the time but didn't really have the funniest script or the best plot. (However you could see some things that would be used to better effect by Monty Python a few years later as well as the Monkees.). The Beatles also lacked the energy they had in the earlier documentary-like film. They were stoned a lot while filming this. Anyway, thanks again. You're always a lovely and witty blast of fresh air.

Love your reactions! You should do Magical Mystery Tour next. It's usually regarded as the worst of the 3 films The Beatles did, but it's the one that they had the most creative control over and IMO is the most interesting with the best songs. The drugs had definitely kicked in at that point, being well into their psychedelic era. Perhaps best viewed with a good buzz. Yellow Submarine is OK but actually has minimal involvement from the band, they didn't even do the voices for their animated counterparts and only briefly appear in the film.

From what I read there is no definitive answer to that, and there have been others that have speculated the same. (In fact it’s right under the same blurb you noted in the Wikipedia article!) music and poetry aren’t always cut and dry and it’s fun to find interpretations! “Some, such as singer Tom Robinson, have suggested that the song was written for the Beatles' manager Brian Epstein, who had to hide his homosexuality from the public.[5][6] Lennon himself, however, never publicly discussed his inspiration for the lyrics. “

Can 9-time Grammy winner Nora Jones use the sitar in her music if she wants to? Her father is Ravi Shankar and her mother is from New York.

@@debjorgo There is no doubt The Beatles popularized Indian Music for a Western audience, and did so artfully. I love George's use of Indian influence, I think it is beautiful and that he truly cared for the culture. Appropriation isn't this evil buzzword, it's a definition. But to say the Beatles did more for Indian music than Indian musicians did is willfully ignorant. Again, the Indian people invented the music. It is steeped in their own history, it is part of their culture. India had a population of 500 million in 1965, who would have all been exposed to Indian music. It can be hard to see things from outside our perspective, and as a Westerner myself, I was exposed to Indian influence in music by the Beatles, but that does not mean they did more for it than the creators. I hope you take time to consider this.

If you reacted to the Beatles' entire music discography you'd gain tons of new subs, just sayin. Yellow Submarine is a cartoon movie that only has the real Beatles in it at the very end to introduce a song. They had nothing to do with the movie other than throwing four new songs in it. Magical Mystery Tour is another Beatles movie that you could watch but it suffers from the lack of a plot. It's more like a film of sketches and songs that happen during a bus trip. Let It Be is their final film and it's a documentary, but it lacks the context of what was going on at the time. The recent Get Back series is much longer but gives a better context than Let It Be and it has almost all of the same content in it. Looking forward to whatever your next upload is!
