  Fun fact: In the late 1960s, the Beatles approached Stanley Kubrick about making a movie adaptation of The Lord of the Rings, that would have starred Paul as Frodo, Ringo as Sam, George as Gandalf, and John as Gollum. Obviously, that never ended up happening, but I really want to see the timeline where that movie was made.

  Fun fact: John gave away his Oscar that he won for Let It Be after a school wrote to him asking for something to auction off.

  The long telephone dialing scene in Help! is hilarious. It has a punch line. He's calling people in the same room. Perfect setup and payoff joke. It would be less funny if the telephone dialing didn't take as long. The belabored dialing makes you think the call must really be worth all the trouble.

  That video of John after Brian Epstein‘s death never fails to make me tear up. He looks like such a fucking lost kid, he basically lost another father figure, someone whom he dearly loved.

  Interesting fact.<br>Paul Angelis who voiced Paul and Ringo in Yellow Submarine, his brother Michael Angelis took over from Ringo as the narrator for Thomas the tank engine.

  A Hard Day&apos;s Night and Help! are legitimately two of my favorite movies of all time and not just because I&apos;m a huge Beatles fan. They&apos;re just so silly and fun.

  The Nowhere Man sequence in Yellow Submarine is the reason that song is in my top five favorite Beatles songs. The image of the bad riding a rainbow and going in circles on a record fascinated me as a child.

  Hard Day&apos;s Night is the ultimate comfort movie for me. Something about it is just so charming, it always cheers me up!

  My son is an animator, and the Director of yellow submarine liked his film. It was the best moment of my life.
