    @Fordham1969 Год назад +1

    Besides being a fine film, I Wanna Hold Your Hand has the striking distinction of having quite a large number of actual Beatle tracks playing throughout the movie, I highly doubt any other scripted film has even close to that many (I'm not just talking about Beatles songs now, I mean their original recorded versions). These days even if The Beatles reps allowed it it would cost a small fortune to get it done.
