"Although the big screen career of the Beatles was relatively brief, they did leave us a legacy of hundreds of hours of onscreen appearances in concerts and interviews, performances of their most famous hits, comedy sketches and documentaries. BEATLEMANIA follows their career on both the silver screen and television, from their debut on PEOPLE AND PLACES to Paul McCartney's spectacular GIVE MY REGARDS TO BROAD STREET. it provides an extensive filmography and videography: the solo films of the individual Beatles, the cartoon series, the films planned but never made, John and Yoko's experimental movies, the promotional films, and the Beatles' videos -- it's all here in this exhaustive compilation. Why did the Beatles turn down a starring role with Brigitte Bardot? When did John appear with Bob Dylan? Where did Ringo inspect a galley of topless women slaves? How did George become a film mogul? What were Paul's science fiction movie projects? Discover the answers to these, and many other, questions in BEATLEMANIA, the only available study of the Beatles on screen." 192 pp includes index; photo-illustrated.
