What Is ‘Beatles ’64’ About?

Before the Beatles arrived in America on Feb. 7, 1964, they were barely a blip on the U.S. charts, even though Beatlemania had already begun back home in the U.K. That would all change soon enough, as the quartet was greeted by thousands of fans when their plane landed in New York City.

An appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show drew more than 73 million viewers, making it the most-watched TV program at the time.

Beatles ’64 includes clips of The Ed Sullivan performances and the band’s first U.S. concert in Washington, D.C., both remixed by Giles Martin, who has worked on various Beatles reissues over the past several years.

In addition to archival footage of the Beatles in conversation and performance, new interviews with McCartney and Starr are included in the upcoming movie. Fans also talk about the impact seeing the Beatles during those first whirlwind months of their American arrival had on them.
