Disney+ has released a fantastic trailer for their upcoming documentary Beatles ’64which will be released on Black Friday. The film comes from the producer Martin Scorsese and director Davide Tedeschiand “captures the electrifying moment of the Beatles’ first visit to America.
Featuring never-before-seen footage, the film offers a rare glimpse into when the Beatles became the most influential and beloved band of all time.
“On February 7, 1964, the Beatles arrived in New York City with unprecedented excitement and hysteria. From the moment they landed at Kennedy Airport, greeted by thousands of fans, Beatlemania swept New York and the entire country.
“Their thrilling debut performance on The Ed Sullivan Show captivated more than 73 million viewers, the most watched television event of its time. Beatles ‘64 presents the show, but also tells a more intimate behind-the-scenes story, capturing the camaraderie of John, Paul, George and Ringo as they experienced unimaginable fame.”
“The film includes rare footage shot by pioneering documentarians Albert and David Maysles, beautifully restored in 4K by Park Road Post in New Zealand. The Beatles’ first American concert live performances at the Washington, D.C. Coliseum and their Ed Sullivan appearances were demixed by WingNut Films and remixed by Giles Martin.
“Highlighting this singular cultural moment and its continued resonance today, the music and footage are enhanced by newly filmed interviews with Paul and Ringo, as well as the fans whose lives were transformed by the Beatles.”
This looks like a really fun watch. It’s great that there is still unseen footage of the Beatles for us to enjoy. I love in the trailer when Paul points out that they came to the US right after JFK’s assassination and feels like the country needed some joy at that time. I agree and can’t wait to watch it with the family this holiday season.
Beatles ’64 will stream exclusively on Disney+ starting November 29, 2024. Check out the trailer and poster for the doc below:
