FilmJuiceA HARD DAY’S NIGHT

Directed with unrelenting verve by Richard Lester, whose innovative techniques paved the way for generations of music videos, the film’s frenetic mix of comic escapades, legendary one-liners and pop perfection captured a moment in time that defined a generation. The most iconic band in music history had arrived.
