Help! (film)

Help! is the second film starring The Beatles, released in 1965.

This is the first Beatles film in color. It is a spy story, resembling a James Bond Movie.

Plot
A cult finds that their sacrifical ring is gone, and we see that Ringo has it stuck on his finger. Members of the cult use different tactics to try to remove it, with the Beatles escaping to such locations as the Bahamas, before it ultimatly ends up that the cult leader has the ring stuck on his finger.

Reception
The movie was well received, but A Hard Day's Night was still the critics preference. The Beatles were smoking grass by then, and could barely remeber their lines. Dick Lester was frustrated, and this could add the reception. But mostly the fans wanted to see the Fabs as themselves, not involved in an action movie.

Soundtrack
The soundtrack to the film had some classic Beatles hits, such as Ticket to Ride, and the title track, Help!. Also included on this LP is the most covered song of all time, Yesterday, and an ancestor of Norwegian Wood(This Bird Has Flown),You've Got to Hide Your Love Away.
