The Beatles: Eight Days a Week - The Touring Years (2016)
Bis heute sind sie die Könige des Pop: Die vier Pilzköpfe Paul, John, George und Ringo eroberten in den Sechzigern von Liverpool aus die Welt. Der Dokumentarfilm begleitet die Band während ihrer Tour-Jahre, und damit von ihren Anfängen im Hamburger Star Club Anfang der Sechziger bis zu ihrem letzten Konzert im Candlestick Park in San Francisco 1966. Wie wurde aus den vier jungen Männern aus Liverpool, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison und Ringo Starr, die erfolgreichste Band der Popgeschichte? Der Film beleuchtet wie diese vier ganz unterschiedlichen Persönlichkeiten zusammen als Band funktionierten, ihre Entscheidungen trafen, Songs schrieben und dabei die außergewöhnliche Karriere der BEATLES starteten und die Welt im Sturm eroberten.
