00:00:40,746 --> 00:00:45,335
The Cavern Club, Liverpool,
9th November 1961.
4
00:00:45,335 --> 00:00:50,298
The moment my life changes forever,
and everything suddenly becomes so clear.
5
00:00:51,216 --> 00:00:53,927
But forgive me,
I'm getting ahead of myself.
6
00:00:53,927 --> 00:00:55,428
Let me set the scene.
7
00:00:59,724 --> 00:01:01,017
1959.
8
00:01:01,309 --> 00:01:03,937
This is where I report for duty every day.
9
00:01:03,937 --> 00:01:06,231
A family store opened by my grandfather,
10
00:01:06,231 --> 00:01:09,442
who arrived in this country
with barely a word of English.
11
00:01:09,734 --> 00:01:12,821
He left all this to my father
who plans to leave it to me.
12
00:01:14,948 --> 00:01:17,283
He doesn't love what I do
with the window displays.
13
00:01:17,283 --> 00:01:20,996
He says, "We're not a theatre, Brian.
We're just selling them furniture."
14
00:01:22,663 --> 00:01:26,459
I tell him, "Times are changing.
Now we have to sell them the dream."
15
00:01:27,627 --> 00:01:31,923
Robert, that is exactly what I want.
16
00:01:36,177 --> 00:01:41,182
Trouble is, my dreams are just
a little bit bigger than this shop window.
17
00:01:53,111 --> 00:01:55,530
How long were you going
to leave me out there?
18
00:01:56,281 --> 00:01:58,074
It was a lovely service.
19
00:01:59,325 --> 00:02:02,662
Only seems like yesterday
that you and your brother were up there.
20
00:02:03,204 --> 00:02:05,999
I was just telling Brian
how well he's doing in the shop.
21
00:02:07,083 --> 00:02:09,544
What did you expect?
He's a star.
22
00:02:10,670 --> 00:02:12,255
He sold a hall mirror
23
00:02:12,255 --> 00:02:14,800
by telling a customer
she looked beautiful in it.
24
00:02:15,508 --> 00:02:16,717
The lad can sell.
25
00:02:16,717 --> 00:02:19,387
Actually I sold
two hall mirrors and a radiogram.
26
00:02:20,638 --> 00:02:22,974
The apple never falls far from the tree.
27
00:02:23,308 --> 00:02:25,060
Oh God forbid, you should encourage him.
28
00:02:25,060 --> 00:02:26,978
He does.
You both do.
29
00:02:29,272 --> 00:02:32,525
But, ehm,
as we're speaking about this,
30
00:02:34,735 --> 00:02:36,905
I actually want to do something new.
31
00:02:36,905 --> 00:02:38,782
Here we go again.
I knew it was too good to be true.
32
00:02:38,782 --> 00:02:40,116
You can't settle, can you?
33
00:02:40,116 --> 00:02:42,452
Even after all those
expensive private schools.
34
00:02:42,452 --> 00:02:43,286
How many was it?
35
00:02:43,286 --> 00:02:45,413
He learned to speak beautifully.
36
00:02:45,413 --> 00:02:48,166
But you were happy when he said
he wanted to be a dress designer.
37
00:02:48,166 --> 00:02:50,085
Nothing wrong with that.
He has the talent.
38
00:02:50,085 --> 00:02:52,378
That's why he became an actor,
or tried to.
39
00:02:52,670 --> 00:02:54,881
Another meshugas.
A 5-minute wonder.
40
00:02:54,881 --> 00:02:56,800
Harry, he went to RADA.
41
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,427
Now he's finally found something
that he's actually good at.
42
00:02:59,427 --> 00:03:01,054
Daddy, if you just let me
finish what I'm trying to say.
43
00:03:01,054 --> 00:03:01,763
Speak!
44
00:03:01,763 --> 00:03:03,514
That's what he's trying to do.
45
00:03:03,514 --> 00:03:05,892
I want to do something
different in the shop.
46
00:03:07,102 --> 00:03:09,604
We already sell classical records.
47
00:03:09,604 --> 00:03:14,484
But I want to sell more, more show tunes,
more music that's popular now,
48
00:03:14,901 --> 00:03:19,781
like Lonnie Donegan,
Elvis Presley, and Frankie Vaughan.
49
00:03:19,781 --> 00:03:20,656
I like him.
50
00:03:20,656 --> 00:03:21,825
You know I love music,
51
00:03:22,533 --> 00:03:24,660
and I know what young people
are listening to now.
52
00:03:24,660 --> 00:03:27,455
I mean, I'm already recommending
records to customers
53
00:03:27,455 --> 00:03:28,957
that we don't actually sell.
54
00:03:29,457 --> 00:03:30,250
What?
55
00:03:30,583 --> 00:03:33,128
That's my point exactly.
We should be selling them.
56
00:03:33,461 --> 00:03:36,714
That way, customers will come to us,
instead of our competitors.
57
00:03:39,926 --> 00:03:41,970
I think it's a wonderful idea.
58
00:03:43,304 --> 00:03:44,639
Well, Harry?
59
00:03:45,849 --> 00:03:48,559
So all the music sold will be down to you.
60
00:03:48,852 --> 00:03:49,352
Yes.
61
00:03:49,352 --> 00:03:52,397
- And you think you're ready for that?
- I just need some more space.
62
00:03:52,981 --> 00:03:54,690
I promise you won't regret it.
63
00:03:56,567 --> 00:03:57,610
I better not.
64
00:03:59,612 --> 00:04:00,738
Can we go now?
65
00:04:00,738 --> 00:04:03,033
- I was waiting for you
- Quiet, Queenie.
66
00:04:03,491 --> 00:04:04,785
Show some respect.
67
00:04:07,788 --> 00:04:10,373
In two years, I turned a shelf
at the back of the store
68
00:04:10,373 --> 00:04:11,499
into the talk of Liverpool
69
00:04:11,499 --> 00:04:13,835
and one of the biggest
record stores in the Northwest.
70
00:04:13,835 --> 00:04:15,128
Thank you, Amelia.
71
00:04:15,962 --> 00:04:18,298
Teenage girls,
they'll tell you who's up and coming
72
00:04:18,298 --> 00:04:22,260
and be the first to buy the record,
and they'll attract the boys.
73
00:04:22,260 --> 00:04:25,388
Some are serious about music.
Some are just here for the girls.
74
00:04:25,388 --> 00:04:28,724
The serious ones dream
of being Britain's answer to Elvis.
75
00:04:29,810 --> 00:04:30,936
As you can see.
76
00:04:31,269 --> 00:04:33,729
Classical?
That's more my scene.
77
00:04:34,147 --> 00:04:36,732
Jazz?
I'm working on that.
78
00:04:37,233 --> 00:04:40,821
Show tunes,
personal favourite and big business.
79
00:04:40,821 --> 00:04:43,406
South Pacific
is our top-selling album this year.
80
00:04:43,406 --> 00:04:46,242
I'm going to wash that man
right out of my hair.
81
00:04:46,910 --> 00:04:50,705
Music isn't just what we listen to,
it's who we are, who we love,
82
00:04:50,705 --> 00:04:51,873
where we belong.
83
00:04:55,919 --> 00:04:59,047
Any disc from anywhere
in less than 5 days.
84
00:04:59,047 --> 00:05:00,256
My big idea.
85
00:05:00,673 --> 00:05:03,509
I've made it company policy
and a matter of pride.
86
00:05:04,010 --> 00:05:06,054
I was right about
this "Johnny Remember Me",
87
00:05:06,054 --> 00:05:08,598
300 copies
and still selling like hotcakes.
88
00:05:09,224 --> 00:05:11,309
When are you ever wrong, Mr Brian, huh?
89
00:05:13,186 --> 00:05:14,645
I shall allow you to tell me.
90
00:05:15,063 --> 00:05:17,148
Alastair Taylor, my right-hand man.
91
00:05:17,607 --> 00:05:19,192
Tea?
My office?
92
00:05:25,323 --> 00:05:26,825
What's this in the order book?
93
00:05:27,075 --> 00:05:28,994
"My Bonnie.
Check back Monday."
94
00:05:29,660 --> 00:05:31,079
It's out of Hamburg.
95
00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:33,664
- I've called a few of the import agents.
- And?
96
00:05:34,165 --> 00:05:36,251
Well, there's a minimum order of 25,
97
00:05:36,251 --> 00:05:38,879
and it's not worth it
for some old sea shanty
98
00:05:38,879 --> 00:05:40,588
on an obscure German label.
99
00:05:40,588 --> 00:05:42,132
Any disc from anywhere?
100
00:05:43,424 --> 00:05:45,468
It takes two weeks to ship from Hamburg.
101
00:05:46,302 --> 00:05:48,471
By the time they arrive,
it'll all have blown over.
102
00:05:48,471 --> 00:05:50,015
Mersey Beat doesn't think so?
103
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,017
They don't sound German.
104
00:05:52,017 --> 00:05:54,019
That's because they're from Liverpool.
105
00:05:54,269 --> 00:05:57,230
They're playing the lunchtime sessions
over at The Cavern.
106
00:05:58,189 --> 00:05:58,940
Let's go, then.
107
00:06:00,150 --> 00:06:01,651
What about this tea?
108
00:06:01,651 --> 00:06:02,610
Come on.
109
00:06:04,445 --> 00:06:05,738
Mr Brian!
110
00:06:24,841 --> 00:06:27,677
ALASTAIR [Softly]: That's Mr Brian
Epstein, he's here to see the Beatles.
111
00:06:27,677 --> 00:06:29,763
- Is he all right to come in?
- Yes.
112
00:06:29,763 --> 00:06:30,931
Mr Brian!
113
00:07:23,483 --> 00:07:24,525
Are you lost?
114
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:26,361
Sorry?
115
00:07:26,361 --> 00:07:27,779
Are you lost?
116
00:07:28,654 --> 00:07:30,240
This isn't the Philharmonic?
117
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,617
Let me take your coat for you.
118
00:07:32,617 --> 00:07:34,660
There's too many scallies.
You'll never see it again.
119
00:07:36,162 --> 00:07:38,957
That's lovely, that.
D'ya get this made special?
120
00:07:38,957 --> 00:07:40,208
Sorry?
121
00:07:40,208 --> 00:07:41,292
Doesn't matter.
122
00:07:43,211 --> 00:07:46,672
Thank you very much.
Now that's how you treat a lady.
123
00:07:47,215 --> 00:07:48,591
Look and learn, lads.
124
00:07:49,134 --> 00:07:49,926
Sorry.
125
00:07:50,343 --> 00:07:51,552
Excuse me.
126
00:07:53,764 --> 00:07:55,723
Right, now, all you cave dwellers,
127
00:07:55,974 --> 00:07:57,768
if we just quieten down
for a moment, please.
128
00:07:57,768 --> 00:07:58,935
Quick question.
129
00:07:59,394 --> 00:08:01,396
Who here's forgot to bring their lunch?
130
00:08:02,563 --> 00:08:05,358
Well, we got four little Hamburgers
just for you.
131
00:08:18,621 --> 00:08:20,290
You want to come to the front?
132
00:08:20,290 --> 00:08:21,416
Well, I guess it's better.
133
00:08:21,875 --> 00:08:24,795
Oh, I didn't expect to see you here.
You all right?
134
00:08:24,795 --> 00:08:25,879
Lovely
135
00:08:26,504 --> 00:08:29,174
The first song we'd like to play...
we didn't write actually, did we?
136
00:08:29,174 --> 00:08:32,010
No, no, I think this was written
by some other guy.
137
00:08:32,010 --> 00:08:33,887
You like that, didn't you?
138
00:08:36,306 --> 00:08:38,391
2, 3, 4!
139
00:09:01,873 --> 00:09:06,753

146
00:10:17,698 --> 00:10:21,828
-Hey, that'll be room service.
-Broom service, more like.
147
00:10:23,663 --> 00:10:26,499
Hello.
My name is Brian Epstein.
148
00:10:26,499 --> 00:10:29,419
Hello. My name is John Lennon.
149
00:10:29,961 --> 00:10:31,922
My name is Paul McCartney.
150
00:10:31,922 --> 00:10:34,549
My name is George Harrison.
How do you do?
151
00:10:35,675 --> 00:10:36,676
Pete Best.
152
00:10:37,218 --> 00:10:38,386
May I come in?
153
00:10:38,636 --> 00:10:40,430
Ooh if you do,
one of us will have to come out.
154
00:10:41,890 --> 00:10:43,975
Well, what brings you
to our broom cupboard?
155
00:10:44,976 --> 00:10:46,394
Er, well, ehm...
156
00:10:47,603 --> 00:10:48,354
There you are.
157
00:10:50,065 --> 00:10:53,443
We, at NEMS,
have had some queries, several, in fact,
158
00:10:53,443 --> 00:10:55,611
about your German disc, "My Bonnie",
159
00:10:56,279 --> 00:10:58,907
and "Any disc from anywhere".
160
00:11:00,826 --> 00:11:03,369
That's our promise in the store.
161
00:11:05,455 --> 00:11:07,040
We don't stock many local groups.
162
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,249
What about Billy Fury?
163
00:11:08,583 --> 00:11:10,460
No, of course, Billy Fury.
164
00:11:13,504 --> 00:11:16,091
But there's been
tremendous interest in your disc.
165
00:11:17,050 --> 00:11:18,426
You were marvellous, really.
166
00:11:18,426 --> 00:11:19,469
- Marvellous.
- Splendid.
167
00:11:19,469 --> 00:11:20,136
Thank you.
168
00:11:20,136 --> 00:11:22,513
GEORGE [Imitating]:
You always were, darling.
169
00:11:22,513 --> 00:11:24,724
So, er...
Well, I'll let you get changed.
170
00:11:24,724 --> 00:11:26,184
Into what?
171
00:11:28,519 --> 00:11:32,482
Well, it was very kind of you
to come down, you know.
172
00:11:33,066 --> 00:11:33,942
My pleasure.
173
00:11:34,484 --> 00:11:36,694
Why don't you throw a few shillings
at our Cyril on the way out?
174
00:11:36,694 --> 00:11:38,196
Cyril is your manager?
175
00:11:41,282 --> 00:11:43,618
No, Priscilla on coats,
you should hear her sing.
176
00:11:43,618 --> 00:11:45,328
She's bloody brilliant, you know.
177
00:11:45,328 --> 00:11:47,122
Why don't you come by the office?
178
00:11:47,372 --> 00:11:49,582
The NEMS Store on Whitechapel.
Just for a chat.
179
00:11:50,166 --> 00:11:51,752
Why don't you come to our office?
180
00:11:52,252 --> 00:11:53,586
You have an office, do you?
181
00:11:53,962 --> 00:11:55,881
No, but we'll get one just for you.
182
00:11:58,258 --> 00:12:03,429
- Again, really, you were marvellous.
-Marvellous.
183
00:12:03,429 --> 00:12:05,140
You were, so erm...
184
00:12:06,391 --> 00:12:07,308
I'll see you at the office.
185
00:12:07,308 --> 00:12:08,601
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
186
00:12:08,601 --> 00:12:09,936
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you very much.
187
00:12:09,936 --> 00:12:11,604
- Goodbye, now.
- Cheerio.
188
00:12:18,278 --> 00:12:20,655
-Sorry, they were awful.
- I know.
189
00:12:21,865 --> 00:12:25,743
Wasn't it fabulous
what they did to that audience?
190
00:12:26,912 --> 00:12:28,079
Are you serious?
191
00:12:29,790 --> 00:12:30,957
- Really?
- Yes.
192
00:12:33,209 --> 00:12:34,836
I think I should manage them.
193
00:12:35,461 --> 00:12:37,505
You're bloody joking, aren't you?
194
00:12:38,631 --> 00:12:41,009
- They're just scruffy lads.
- I can work on that.
195
00:12:41,426 --> 00:12:44,512
- You've got no experience, Mr Brian.
- How hard can it be?
196
00:12:45,013 --> 00:12:45,764
What about NEMS?
197
00:12:45,764 --> 00:12:48,016
- You've got NEMS to run.
- No, I can do both.
198
00:12:48,016 --> 00:12:51,227
- You've never managed a band before.
- I'd never managed a shop.
199
00:12:52,771 --> 00:12:55,857
They've got a manager, Allan Williams.
200
00:13:03,907 --> 00:13:06,534
Half of Liverpool will tell you
they discovered The Beatles.
201
00:13:06,868 --> 00:13:09,830
The other half will tell you
they're the fools who turned them down.
202
00:13:09,830 --> 00:13:12,582
Allan Williams is the only man
who managed to do both.
203
00:13:12,999 --> 00:13:13,834
Allan.
204
00:13:13,834 --> 00:13:17,628
Before you say a word,
they're under contract.
205
00:13:17,628 --> 00:13:21,091
- I didn't realise.
- No, you didn't bother to ask, did you?
206
00:13:22,217 --> 00:13:24,803
Otherwise, you'd know
how much I bloody care for them.
207
00:13:24,803 --> 00:13:26,096
I'm sure you do, Allan.
208
00:13:26,888 --> 00:13:29,057
These boys mean a lot to me.
209
00:13:29,474 --> 00:13:30,767
I hired them.
210
00:13:30,767 --> 00:13:32,936
I drove them to Hamburg.
211
00:13:33,269 --> 00:13:35,063
Hired them to paint the lavatories?
212
00:13:35,313 --> 00:13:37,941
Yeah, well, made a bloody mess of that.
213
00:13:38,817 --> 00:13:41,778
I preferred the graffiti
that was there beforehand, actually.
214
00:13:41,778 --> 00:13:45,073
But they did the rest of the club,
and that was fine.
215
00:13:45,573 --> 00:13:46,908
I'm glad to hear it.
216
00:13:47,450 --> 00:13:48,910
You ask anyone around here,
217
00:13:49,828 --> 00:13:52,372
and they'll tell you
they're nowhere without me.
218
00:13:52,914 --> 00:13:53,999
I don't doubt it.
219
00:13:55,083 --> 00:13:58,294
But I asked you here because,
well, I'd like to manage them now,
220
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:00,839
and if the boys agree, that is.
221
00:14:01,672 --> 00:14:04,259
So, er, if I could see that contract?
222
00:14:05,510 --> 00:14:08,721
You think they're going to be
bigger than the Shadows, don't you?
223
00:14:09,347 --> 00:14:10,348
That'd be a start.
224
00:14:11,767 --> 00:14:13,351
If I could just see the contract?
225
00:14:13,351 --> 00:14:16,104
There was no piece of paper.
It was just an agreement.
226
00:14:16,646 --> 00:14:19,775
But I was the one that had the expenses.
227
00:14:20,108 --> 00:14:25,864
Petrol, the ferry trip to Hamburg,
the van hire, hire of their instruments.
228
00:14:25,864 --> 00:14:31,202
There's still 10% commission I didn't get,
about 9 pounds, 10 shillings.
229
00:14:31,202 --> 00:14:32,662
Haven't seen hide nor hair of.
230
00:14:32,662 --> 00:14:36,041
If they do come with me,
then I'm sure we can discuss expenses.
231
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:38,501
They're always late.
They don't even own their own instruments.
232
00:14:38,501 --> 00:14:39,460
Think of that.
233
00:14:39,753 --> 00:14:42,756
- I shall bear that in mind.
- You should rename them The Bootles
234
00:14:42,756 --> 00:14:46,092
because from here to Bootle,
that's as far as they're going to go.
235
00:14:49,345 --> 00:14:50,847
Thank you. For...
236
00:14:51,556 --> 00:14:52,473
For what?
237
00:14:55,393 --> 00:14:58,438
They're good musicians,
I'll give them that.
238
00:14:59,689 --> 00:15:03,068
But if I were you, I wouldn't touch them
with a fucking barge pole.
239
00:15:30,345 --> 00:15:32,555
- Mr Brian, they're...
- All right.
240
00:15:32,555 --> 00:15:34,057
- They're here.
-Good evening.
241
00:15:34,891 --> 00:15:35,934
Come in.
242
00:15:39,062 --> 00:15:41,356
Don't see many of these nowadays, do you?
243
00:15:43,859 --> 00:15:46,569
We can't, er...
We can't start without Paul.
244
00:15:46,987 --> 00:15:49,489
He's in the bath.
He'll be here soon.
245
00:15:50,031 --> 00:15:51,199
He'll be very late.
246
00:15:51,657 --> 00:15:53,076
He'll be very clean.
247
00:15:53,618 --> 00:15:55,370
But being on time is important.
248
00:15:55,370 --> 00:15:58,498
We're a rock and roll band,
not a church choir.
249
00:16:00,208 --> 00:16:02,252
You like the bullfighting, Mr Epstein?
250
00:16:02,710 --> 00:16:03,879
I do.
251
00:16:05,255 --> 00:16:07,340
- That's very fetching.
- Hey, look.
252
00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:12,637
I go to Spain a lot.
There's nothing more exciting.
253
00:16:12,637 --> 00:16:15,140
Man against beast, cheating death.
254
00:16:15,140 --> 00:16:16,892
Chasing death, more like.
255
00:16:17,642 --> 00:16:19,435
Very Ernest Hemingway of you.
256
00:16:21,396 --> 00:16:22,773
So what do you want with us?
257
00:16:23,273 --> 00:16:25,191
It's more what I feel I can do for you.
258
00:16:25,191 --> 00:16:27,402
We don't need nothing.
We're doing great.
259
00:16:27,861 --> 00:16:29,946
Allan Williams took us to Hamburg.
260
00:16:30,405 --> 00:16:32,657
Brian Epstein will take you to New York.
261
00:16:36,912 --> 00:16:38,997
What were you paid for Hamburg?
262
00:16:38,997 --> 00:16:41,917
- It's not about the money.
- That's what they want you to think.
263
00:16:41,917 --> 00:16:44,044
It's called the music business,
and you should think about that,
264
00:16:44,044 --> 00:16:45,336
or you'll be exploited.
265
00:16:45,336 --> 00:16:47,881
If I'd known he'd got all those
washing machines downstairs,
266
00:16:47,881 --> 00:16:49,465
I would have cleaned up right here.
267
00:16:49,465 --> 00:16:52,302
Mr Epstein was just saying
he's taking us all to New York.
268
00:16:52,302 --> 00:16:54,720
Oh wow.
When's that?
269
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,017
You're all clearly very talented,
and your energy is palpable.
270
00:16:59,017 --> 00:17:00,726
My gran takes pills for that.
271
00:17:00,726 --> 00:17:02,270
Your humour is endearing.
272
00:17:02,270 --> 00:17:04,480
'Curses Neddie, he's spotted us'.
273
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:08,568
But your stage presentation,
it's, er, detractive.
274
00:17:08,985 --> 00:17:11,905
But you don't seem to care
what you look like.
275
00:17:12,906 --> 00:17:14,449
No complaints from our fans.
276
00:17:14,449 --> 00:17:15,951
Those kids at The Cavern.
277
00:17:15,951 --> 00:17:18,787
Easy, there. You know
you're talking about our future wives.
278
00:17:19,204 --> 00:17:23,666
What do you want from these scruffy,
not terribly aware, yet, ehm,
279
00:17:23,666 --> 00:17:26,252
talented and quite attractive youngsters?
280
00:17:28,129 --> 00:17:30,799
I want to represent you, be your manager.
281
00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:35,762
- What other bands do you manage?
- I won't lie, you'll be the first.
282
00:17:37,806 --> 00:17:40,683
I sell more records
than anyone in the Northwest.
283
00:17:40,683 --> 00:17:43,019
I can smell a hit
before the vinyl's even dry.
284
00:17:43,561 --> 00:17:44,520
Yeah.
285
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,022
I speak to the record labels every day,
286
00:17:46,022 --> 00:17:49,359
and if I say you're the next big thing,
they're going to jump at the chance.
287
00:17:49,776 --> 00:17:50,986
Do you have any thoughts?
288
00:17:51,527 --> 00:17:53,738
- What's in it for you?
- 25%.
289
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,157
- Is that normal?
- That's fair.
290
00:17:57,283 --> 00:17:59,202
I'll pay you in cash every week.
291
00:18:02,705 --> 00:18:03,748
Look,
292
00:18:05,125 --> 00:18:07,377
what I'm, I'm trying to say,
293
00:18:08,336 --> 00:18:13,341
not terribly well,
is that I think you're special.
294
00:18:14,801 --> 00:18:16,511
What I saw on that stage,
295
00:18:17,888 --> 00:18:19,139
I will never forget it.
296
00:18:20,265 --> 00:18:21,767
I think you can go all the way.
297
00:18:23,393 --> 00:18:24,644
And I promise
298
00:18:25,645 --> 00:18:26,938
I will look after you.
299
00:18:30,901 --> 00:18:32,819
Is that your Zodiac out front?
300
00:18:33,069 --> 00:18:35,864
Yes, a Zephyr Zodiac.
301
00:18:37,657 --> 00:18:40,493
You know, I think my dad
bought our piano from NEMS.
302
00:18:40,743 --> 00:18:42,037
Then we're practically related.
303
00:18:42,037 --> 00:18:45,123
We got our sofa here and all.
What does that make us?
304
00:18:45,123 --> 00:18:48,794
Like family, only better.
No secrets from each other.
305
00:18:52,130 --> 00:18:52,964
How about this?
306
00:18:59,554 --> 00:19:01,514
- I don't sign the contract.
- No, Mr Brian...
307
00:19:03,391 --> 00:19:05,435
If ever you're not happy,
308
00:19:06,186 --> 00:19:07,478
you can rip it up
309
00:19:08,146 --> 00:19:09,522
and walk away.
310
00:19:32,295 --> 00:19:34,798
Help! Hey! Stop it!
311
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:39,761
You're the worst.
312
00:19:47,018 --> 00:19:48,603
Think about that face.
313
00:19:48,603 --> 00:19:51,022
- George you look marvellous.
- I know that.
314
00:19:54,525 --> 00:19:56,778
Come on, Brian.
In the chair.
315
00:19:56,778 --> 00:19:58,905
Don't you dare put it in my face.
316
00:20:02,533 --> 00:20:03,493
All together.
317
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,454
In 3, 2, 1.
318
00:20:06,913 --> 00:20:07,998
From the waist.
319
00:20:17,007 --> 00:20:22,428
Marvellous! Bravo! Good form!
320
00:20:22,428 --> 00:20:23,805
All right, your turn.
321
00:20:24,472 --> 00:20:25,556
Okay, ready?
322
00:20:27,017 --> 00:20:28,684
Three, two, one.
323
00:20:33,774 --> 00:20:34,775
Perfect.
324
00:20:37,068 --> 00:20:39,154
Something came upon me.
325
00:20:45,451 --> 00:20:48,454

342
00:22:03,488 --> 00:22:06,157
And NEMS does a lot
of business with Decca.
343
00:22:06,783 --> 00:22:08,034
Hello, boys.
344
00:22:08,034 --> 00:22:12,205
I'd like you to bring them
to London for an audition.
345
00:22:14,165 --> 00:22:16,084
Thank you, Michael.
Thank you.
346
00:22:43,403 --> 00:22:45,071
What time do you call this?
347
00:22:47,448 --> 00:22:49,450
You tell us,
when we left Liverpool, it was summer.
348
00:22:49,450 --> 00:22:50,535
Brian.
349
00:22:50,911 --> 00:22:52,120
Get in. Go on.
350
00:23:24,945 --> 00:23:27,989
We went out last night
and that's on us as well.
351
00:23:27,989 --> 00:23:29,699
- We shouldn't have done that.
- Great.
352
00:23:29,699 --> 00:23:31,827
Or at least not for as late.
353
00:23:31,827 --> 00:23:35,080
Pete, how much coffee did you have?
354
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,332
- I mean, why was it so fast?
- Did you hear your own voice?
355
00:23:37,332 --> 00:23:39,250
I couldn't hear myself
over you banging away.
356
00:23:39,250 --> 00:23:41,711
- That was...
- Oh, go on.
357
00:23:42,003 --> 00:23:45,924
Well, it wasn't our best, but we've got
the tape and that's what we came for.
358
00:23:45,924 --> 00:23:47,592
Tape.
Great.
359
00:23:47,592 --> 00:23:49,302
Fantastic.
We got that.
360
00:23:49,302 --> 00:23:50,136
Well done, boys.
361
00:23:50,136 --> 00:23:54,891
I did have just one idea, that next time
maybe you could warm up before you start.
362
00:23:56,017 --> 00:23:58,186
Yeah, because being squashed in a van
363
00:23:58,186 --> 00:24:01,106
for 10 hours in a freezing blizzard
is perfect for the harmonies.
364
00:24:01,106 --> 00:24:02,398
But you would know.
365
00:24:02,816 --> 00:24:05,401
How is it for you in your little limo,
Little Lord Fauntleroy?
366
00:24:05,401 --> 00:24:07,737
I just thought, you know,
it'd be best for your voices--
367
00:24:07,737 --> 00:24:08,864
If, if, what?
368
00:24:09,948 --> 00:24:13,493
Worn different ties, we all
bow at exactly the same time.
369
00:24:13,994 --> 00:24:16,287
Why don't you hop
in on the chorus next time?
370
00:24:16,287 --> 00:24:18,748
Tune me guitar.
No, wait, you can't do that, can you?
371
00:24:18,748 --> 00:24:20,375
All right, John, come on,
give him a break.
372
00:24:20,375 --> 00:24:22,335
Calm down, John, and listen.
Just listen.
373
00:24:22,335 --> 00:24:24,712
"Listen" to what Brian has to say.
374
00:24:24,712 --> 00:24:27,048
Because he's going to fix
everything, aren't you?
375
00:24:27,048 --> 00:24:29,009
Hang on.
Why don't we get you some string?
376
00:24:29,009 --> 00:24:30,385
Get some string Pete.
377
00:24:30,385 --> 00:24:33,429
How are you going to control your
magical puppets without your string?
378
00:24:37,725 --> 00:24:38,852
Sorry, Brian.
379
00:24:38,852 --> 00:24:40,186
So what now?
380
00:24:43,731 --> 00:24:48,987
Well, Mike Smith will talk to Dick Rowe,
who's head of A&R at Decca.
381
00:24:50,781 --> 00:24:54,159
Okay, well, that's for you.
Enjoy.
382
00:24:55,743 --> 00:24:56,870
- You all right?
- I am fine.
383
00:24:57,203 --> 00:24:58,746
- Yeah.
- Just give me a moment.
384
00:24:58,746 --> 00:24:59,873
All right.
385
00:25:13,303 --> 00:25:14,304
John,
386
00:25:17,974 --> 00:25:21,937
you will never find anyone
who will work harder for you than me.
387
00:25:25,231 --> 00:25:26,316
Don't forget that.
388
00:25:30,862 --> 00:25:32,447
I know.
389
00:25:33,698 --> 00:25:34,825
I won't.
390
00:25:55,011 --> 00:25:57,180
If they want to come in,
they can come in.
391
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:03,436
He is, definitely, yes.
392
00:26:03,436 --> 00:26:06,064
Well, you know,
I spoke with him on the weekend.
393
00:26:06,064 --> 00:26:07,648
Well, he's got confidence.
394
00:26:07,648 --> 00:26:10,276
Mr Rowe, how good to finally meet you.
395
00:26:10,276 --> 00:26:11,987
Very good of you to come down.
396
00:26:12,612 --> 00:26:16,157
Do you know Sidney Arthur Beecher Stevens?
397
00:26:16,157 --> 00:26:17,617
Is that all one person?
398
00:26:17,617 --> 00:26:18,910
I'm the director of sales.
399
00:26:18,910 --> 00:26:20,871
Nice to finally meet you,
Mr Epstein.
400
00:26:20,871 --> 00:26:24,624
So, should we be ordering
something to celebrate?
401
00:26:25,792 --> 00:26:27,460
Well, you have sold a lot of records.
402
00:26:27,460 --> 00:26:29,880
That's not why I'm here.
Where's Mike?
403
00:26:31,047 --> 00:26:33,174
Well, this isn't a Mike conversation.
404
00:26:35,135 --> 00:26:38,429
You've a terrific little business,
Mr Epstein.
405
00:26:38,429 --> 00:26:41,850
You are one of our very
best customers, Mr Epstein.
406
00:26:41,850 --> 00:26:44,602
In fact, I was just saying it,
wasn't I?
407
00:26:44,602 --> 00:26:45,854
Yes, Dick, you were.
408
00:26:45,854 --> 00:26:48,106
Well, that's because
I can recognise talent.
409
00:26:48,439 --> 00:26:50,942
I can always spot a hit
and I know where to sell them.
410
00:26:50,942 --> 00:26:52,485
Well, you keep spotting them
and selling them
411
00:26:52,485 --> 00:26:54,905
and we'll keep making them.
412
00:26:56,156 --> 00:26:58,867
And that's just the way it's going to be.
413
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:01,119
It's never an easy decision.
414
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,412
I'm a little lost.
415
00:27:03,079 --> 00:27:05,665
-Wouldn't mean to confuse.
- Oh no, I'm not confused.
416
00:27:05,665 --> 00:27:09,753
I'm lost because I think you're saying
that you don't want to sign my group.
417
00:27:10,628 --> 00:27:12,088
Did you listen to the record?
418
00:27:13,089 --> 00:27:14,758
Absolute bilge.
419
00:27:17,343 --> 00:27:18,762
I'm one of your best customers.
420
00:27:18,762 --> 00:27:21,807
Well, that has nothing to do
with signing your group.
421
00:27:21,807 --> 00:27:24,392
I've been in A&R for years.
422
00:27:24,725 --> 00:27:26,227
I know how these things work.
423
00:27:26,227 --> 00:27:30,106
And groups with guitars
are on their way out.
424
00:27:31,357 --> 00:27:33,151
I'm not satisfied with the sound.
425
00:27:33,151 --> 00:27:35,236
You don't know what you're turning down.
426
00:27:37,823 --> 00:27:41,492
Look, why are you doing this, Mr Epstein?
You have a thriving business.
427
00:27:41,492 --> 00:27:44,495
You make a comfortable living,
which you're good at.
428
00:27:45,413 --> 00:27:48,541
Why would you throw it away
on a bunch of...
429
00:27:48,541 --> 00:27:49,667
Well,
430
00:27:50,251 --> 00:27:51,461
frankly, yobbos?
431
00:27:59,594 --> 00:28:01,012
Thank you for the audition.
432
00:28:01,972 --> 00:28:04,015
I'm sorry we wasted your time.
433
00:28:05,433 --> 00:28:08,144
No, no, no sit down.
Order some food.
434
00:28:08,144 --> 00:28:10,605
I'm starving.
Oh, come on!
435
00:28:12,732 --> 00:28:14,234
They're just a band.
436
00:28:14,609 --> 00:28:18,321
There'll be more, much better bands.
437
00:28:19,155 --> 00:28:20,323
Those boys.
438
00:28:21,074 --> 00:28:22,117
My boys
439
00:28:23,701 --> 00:28:25,245
will be bigger than Elvis.
440
00:28:27,914 --> 00:28:29,665
That's priceless.
441
00:28:31,251 --> 00:28:34,045
You should be the one
on stage, not your boys.
442
00:28:35,380 --> 00:28:36,547
Very good.
443
00:28:38,258 --> 00:28:39,342
Could we have...?
444
00:28:40,969 --> 00:28:42,888
There's no need to act condemned.
445
00:28:42,888 --> 00:28:44,890
There will be other opportunities.
446
00:28:46,682 --> 00:28:48,226
I failed the boys.
447
00:28:49,394 --> 00:28:50,728
I failed Dad.
448
00:28:52,688 --> 00:28:54,524
The worst thing is they all know it.
449
00:28:55,316 --> 00:28:56,484
So what?
450
00:28:56,985 --> 00:28:58,569
Just going to give up?
451
00:28:59,237 --> 00:29:02,198
What did you do when
you fell off your bike?
452
00:29:03,491 --> 00:29:05,285
I asked you and Daddy for a car.
453
00:29:06,995 --> 00:29:08,997
You never were like other children.
454
00:29:13,168 --> 00:29:14,502
It's not over yet.
455
00:29:14,502 --> 00:29:18,714
So get some rest and get to work.
456
00:29:20,425 --> 00:29:21,676
I'm going to bed.

469
00:31:33,558 --> 00:31:36,686
I'm going to have a chat
with the chaps at Parlophone.
470
00:31:37,771 --> 00:31:38,939
Parlophone?
471
00:31:39,272 --> 00:31:40,690
Parlophone make comedy.
472
00:31:40,690 --> 00:31:42,567
You know, we're a rock and roll band,
not the Goons.
473
00:31:42,567 --> 00:31:46,112
Hey, I can be funny.
Just tell me when.
474
00:31:46,112 --> 00:31:49,950
Look, Parlophone are a part of EMI,
and they want to broaden their range.
475
00:31:49,950 --> 00:31:52,327
- I know it's not our first choice.
- More like our last resort.
476
00:31:52,327 --> 00:31:53,995
They want to hear what we've got.
477
00:31:54,704 --> 00:31:58,208
So I thought while you're in Hamburg,
I'd see what they have to offer.
478
00:31:58,208 --> 00:32:00,626
Well, you made us a joke already.
479
00:32:00,626 --> 00:32:01,878
Why not go the whole way?
480
00:32:01,878 --> 00:32:03,004
Come on, John.
481
00:32:08,885 --> 00:32:10,470
You look tired, Brian.
482
00:32:11,346 --> 00:32:12,973
You look like shite.
483
00:32:13,389 --> 00:32:15,183
It's just his face.
484
00:32:15,183 --> 00:32:17,560
-Oh, yeah?
-I'm fine.
485
00:32:19,229 --> 00:32:20,646
Thank you for your concern.
486
00:32:22,941 --> 00:32:27,070
Hey, look,
Eppy's on the slimming pills.
487
00:32:27,070 --> 00:32:28,363
Skinny minis,
488
00:32:28,363 --> 00:32:30,782
for the perfect figure
and staying up all night.
489
00:32:30,782 --> 00:32:35,453
-She ain't skinny, she's...
- Just tall, that's all.
490
00:32:36,579 --> 00:32:38,790
- Hey, don't never do that again.
- Why not?
491
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:40,250
It's what you do on stage, isn't it?
492
00:32:40,250 --> 00:32:42,002
No, they don't work that fast, Brian.
493
00:32:42,002 --> 00:32:43,544
Yes, well, they're going
to have to for me, John.
494
00:32:44,670 --> 00:32:46,714
What about skinny Brian?
495
00:32:46,714 --> 00:32:48,258
He ain't lying.
496
00:32:48,258 --> 00:32:49,675
He's just rich.
497
00:32:50,051 --> 00:32:52,763
That's it.
498
00:32:53,721 --> 00:32:55,056
That's not going to sell.
499
00:33:17,662 --> 00:33:19,956
I'm not sure what it is you want me to do.
500
00:33:21,124 --> 00:33:23,877
But they've conquered
all of Liverpool, Mr Martin.
501
00:33:23,877 --> 00:33:25,253
- George.
- George.
502
00:33:25,253 --> 00:33:27,713
You wouldn't want to miss out
on the next stage.
503
00:33:28,298 --> 00:33:29,465
Which is?
504
00:33:30,884 --> 00:33:32,844
I know what people listen to.
I know what they want.
505
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:36,264
If they can do it in Liverpool,
they can do it all over the world.
506
00:33:37,473 --> 00:33:40,894
Their voices...
One's very sweet.
507
00:33:40,894 --> 00:33:42,062
Yes, that'll be Paul's.
508
00:33:42,062 --> 00:33:43,772
And one definitely isn't.
509
00:33:46,357 --> 00:33:49,069
- Have you spoken to...?
- They all speak to me.
510
00:33:49,652 --> 00:33:52,948
They want to know what's next,
what's good, what are people buying?
511
00:33:53,198 --> 00:33:55,533
But they just don't see that it is this.
512
00:33:56,451 --> 00:33:59,537
I know they're a little rough and ready,
but my God, they can play.
513
00:34:00,621 --> 00:34:03,208
And they write their own songs,
really, really good songs.
514
00:34:03,208 --> 00:34:04,625
And there's lots more coming.
515
00:34:04,625 --> 00:34:06,837
None of which means they'll sell records.
516
00:34:07,628 --> 00:34:10,298
But that's not all you care about,
is it, George?
517
00:34:10,841 --> 00:34:12,675
And you sell comedy.
518
00:34:12,675 --> 00:34:14,552
And you've been very,
very successful at that.
519
00:34:15,095 --> 00:34:17,180
You're a trained musician.
Am I right?
520
00:34:17,180 --> 00:34:19,307
It's music that runs through your veins.
521
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:24,896
And George, these boys,
they're not like anyone you've ever met.
522
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:26,481
They're honest.
523
00:34:27,398 --> 00:34:28,817
And the world's changing.
524
00:34:29,525 --> 00:34:30,861
They can see it.
525
00:34:31,277 --> 00:34:34,489
And I think you can see it, too.
I think you're one of us, George.
526
00:34:35,156 --> 00:34:37,033
Well, I can only offer an audition.
527
00:34:38,326 --> 00:34:40,954
No, we've had auditions,
we've had meetings.
528
00:34:41,872 --> 00:34:42,873
They're busy day and night.
529
00:34:42,873 --> 00:34:45,416
If I'm going to bring them down,
it has to be on a contractual basis.
530
00:34:45,416 --> 00:34:47,668
You're telling me
you need a contract, Brian,
531
00:34:49,004 --> 00:34:53,674
for what is essentially
and absolutely only an audition?
532
00:34:56,386 --> 00:34:57,763
I really do, yes.
533
00:34:57,763 --> 00:34:58,889
Okay.
534
00:34:59,765 --> 00:35:01,975
Okay, I'll have something typed out.
535
00:35:02,392 --> 00:35:06,104
Bring them round when they're back
from Hamburg to our place in North London.
536
00:35:06,104 --> 00:35:08,523
Just by Lord's.
On the Abbey Road.
537
00:35:09,232 --> 00:35:10,733
Thank you.
Thank you, George.
538
00:35:15,781 --> 00:35:16,572
Brian.
539
00:35:18,241 --> 00:35:19,367
What is it?
540
00:35:20,326 --> 00:35:21,369
Why here?
541
00:35:21,912 --> 00:35:22,996
Why me?
542
00:35:23,579 --> 00:35:24,956
You make comedy, George.
543
00:35:26,374 --> 00:35:28,043
Spike Milligan, the Goons.
544
00:35:29,669 --> 00:35:31,712
Everywhere I go, people laugh at me.
545
00:35:32,338 --> 00:35:33,714
We could do well together.
546
00:36:36,903 --> 00:36:40,156
International operator
connecting your call to Hamburg.
547
00:36:40,156 --> 00:36:41,032
Thank you.
548
00:36:48,039 --> 00:36:51,459
Paul, it's Brian.
How's Hamburg?
549
00:36:53,336 --> 00:36:55,296
Never mind that.
How was Parlophone?
550
00:36:55,881 --> 00:36:57,257
We had a good meeting.
551
00:36:59,175 --> 00:37:00,844
That's not what I asked.
552
00:37:03,679 --> 00:37:06,682
I got you the contract,
you're signed.
553
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:16,442
We're bloody signed, boys!
554
00:37:16,734 --> 00:37:18,945
I told him there'd be
no secrets between us.
555
00:37:19,695 --> 00:37:21,531
Or perhaps it's just good management.
556
00:37:23,033 --> 00:37:24,284
The truth is,
557
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,496
I can't bear their disappointment
when they feel I've let them down.

Perhaps it's the studio.
566
00:38:34,229 --> 00:38:36,564
Perhaps it's because the pressure is off.
567
00:38:37,858 --> 00:38:40,151
Or at least they think it is.
568
00:38:41,152 --> 00:38:45,740
But whatever it is,
there's no doubt in my mind they belong.
569

I think that's the best we've done it.
586
00:40:05,486 --> 00:40:07,238
How was that Mr Martin?
587
00:40:07,238 --> 00:40:08,489
Okay, coming down.
588
00:40:09,825 --> 00:40:11,076
- Coming down.
- Okay, right.
589
00:40:12,535 --> 00:40:14,245
Voice of God.
590
00:40:14,245 --> 00:40:15,288
It wasn't bad.
591
00:40:15,288 --> 00:40:17,623
- Let me talk a minute.
- All right.
592
00:40:18,834 --> 00:40:21,753
- Maybe a little bit of rust, that's all.
- Rust, yeah.
593
00:40:21,753 --> 00:40:23,254
Pete, slow down.
594
00:40:25,882 --> 00:40:26,967
It's good.
595
00:40:27,508 --> 00:40:28,509
It's quite good.
596
00:40:29,177 --> 00:40:31,346
Do you know, I think there's some promise.
597
00:40:31,888 --> 00:40:33,181
Some promise?
598
00:40:33,181 --> 00:40:34,140
Don't overdo it.
599
00:40:34,140 --> 00:40:35,892
Heavens, I think I might faint.
600
00:40:35,892 --> 00:40:38,603
If I didn't think
there was something there to find,
601
00:40:38,603 --> 00:40:40,313
I wouldn't go into as much detail.
602
00:40:40,313 --> 00:40:44,400
Paul, your voice is quite good.
603
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:45,485
Thank you.
604
00:40:45,735 --> 00:40:46,611
It's okay.
605
00:40:46,611 --> 00:40:49,322
John, you need better control.
606
00:40:50,073 --> 00:40:52,200
Can you feel that you're straining
on your top notes?
607
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,244
It must be like gargling gravel.
608
00:40:55,078 --> 00:40:56,913
Now, Pete,
609
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,375
how can I say this?
610
00:41:01,084 --> 00:41:02,418
You need more precision.
611
00:41:02,418 --> 00:41:05,130
What sounds good in Hamburg
simply won't wash on a disc.
612
00:41:05,588 --> 00:41:07,007
You need more snap.
613
00:41:08,759 --> 00:41:10,468
Okay, and George...
614
00:41:11,261 --> 00:41:12,637
George, your rhythm is excellent,
615
00:41:12,637 --> 00:41:14,639
but maybe get a little bit more drive.
616
00:41:14,639 --> 00:41:17,683
I think that extra punch underneath
will just help the vocal line soar.
617
00:41:17,683 --> 00:41:19,269
Then we'll be in a good place.
618
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,312
If it's there, you will find it.
619
00:41:22,105 --> 00:41:24,315
It is my task to help you find it.
620
00:41:26,526 --> 00:41:27,568
Well,
621
00:41:27,568 --> 00:41:29,362
anyway, I think
that's enough from me.
622
00:41:30,196 --> 00:41:31,614
Anything you didn't like?
623
00:41:35,076 --> 00:41:36,912
I don't like your tie.
624
00:41:42,542 --> 00:41:45,003
- You don't like it either?
- I've seen worse.
625
00:41:46,755 --> 00:41:48,757
Well, then. Better?
626
00:41:49,758 --> 00:41:51,009
- That's better.
- Yeah, that's better.
627
00:41:51,009 --> 00:41:52,260
I think so.
628
00:41:53,386 --> 00:41:55,764
Okay, what do you say?
Another go?
629
00:41:55,764 --> 00:41:56,722
Yeah, one more.
630
00:41:56,722 --> 00:41:58,016
- Another go.
- All right.
631
00:41:58,266 --> 00:41:59,267
Fantastic.
632
00:42:00,268 --> 00:42:02,145
JOHN [Imitating Mr Martin]:
More punch, George.
633
00:42:05,565 --> 00:42:07,733
I can hear everything
you're saying, you know.
634
00:42:07,733 --> 00:42:08,734
Sorry.
635
00:42:09,319 --> 00:42:12,197
All right, gravel... Yeah I should stop
gargling the gravel in the morning.
636
00:42:13,782 --> 00:42:14,740
From the top.
637
00:42:14,740 --> 00:42:15,826
Right, just remember...
638
00:42:17,118 --> 00:42:19,788
- They really are something.
- Yes, they are.
639
00:42:22,332 --> 00:42:23,583
But Pete?
640
00:42:25,251 --> 00:42:26,795
I'm not...
641
00:42:28,254 --> 00:42:30,173
I don't know, there's just something...
642
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,219
He's really not suited to the studio.
643
00:42:37,180 --> 00:42:41,267
Those rows of buttons,
your magic desk up there, there must be...
644
00:42:41,267 --> 00:42:42,227
Must be something you can do.
645
00:42:42,227 --> 00:42:43,812
It's not about the buttons, Brian.
646
00:42:48,817 --> 00:42:50,360
I'm guessing you want to sell records
647
00:42:51,152 --> 00:42:52,320
at some point.
648
00:42:52,653 --> 00:42:56,699
And that drumming just
simply isn't suited to the records.
649
00:42:58,284 --> 00:42:59,619
Won't work on a disc.
650
00:43:04,249 --> 00:43:06,292
So I feel you need to make a decision.
651
00:43:13,133 --> 00:43:14,675
How's your mother, Pete?
652
00:43:14,675 --> 00:43:17,220
Yeah, she's good.
Good.
653
00:43:17,220 --> 00:43:21,141
Must be strange to have a baby brother
at this late age.
654
00:43:21,516 --> 00:43:22,768
Yeah, tell me about it.
655
00:43:23,268 --> 00:43:25,061
We're not here to talk about that, are we?
656
00:43:25,061 --> 00:43:26,521
- No.
- Good.
657
00:43:28,439 --> 00:43:29,274
I'm afraid,
658
00:43:29,274 --> 00:43:33,278
I've asked you here
to tell you some bad news.
659
00:43:35,405 --> 00:43:36,823
I've been talking to the others
660
00:43:37,740 --> 00:43:39,075
and we've made the decision.
661
00:43:40,535 --> 00:43:42,578
I'm afraid we're looking
for a new drummer.
662
00:43:44,705 --> 00:43:46,374
Funny guy, Brian.
663
00:43:46,666 --> 00:43:49,710
All right, boys, you can come out now.
664
00:43:57,468 --> 00:43:59,220
You're not serious, are you?
665
00:43:59,220 --> 00:44:00,972
This is a joke, right?
666
00:44:02,515 --> 00:44:04,017
It's nothing personal, Pete.
667
00:44:04,309 --> 00:44:07,020
We're just in a different phase now,
and you heard what George Martin said.
668
00:44:07,020 --> 00:44:08,772
Woah, woah.
669
00:44:10,774 --> 00:44:15,111
Brian, what are you saying?
670
00:44:17,697 --> 00:44:20,366
I'm the beat in The Beatles.
671
00:44:21,367 --> 00:44:23,203
I mean, it's my sound.
672
00:44:23,870 --> 00:44:25,455
They're all doing it now.
673
00:44:26,289 --> 00:44:27,332
Ringo--
674
00:44:27,623 --> 00:44:28,624
Ringo!?
675
00:44:29,459 --> 00:44:31,419
They enjoyed playing with him
when you were unwell.
676
00:44:31,419 --> 00:44:35,465
I was sick, Brian.
I was sick, not dead.
677
00:44:36,674 --> 00:44:38,885
It's just how the business is, I'm afraid.
I'm so sorry.
678
00:44:38,885 --> 00:44:40,136
- The business?
- Ringo is...
679
00:44:40,136 --> 00:44:41,221
Ringo's...
680
00:44:48,519 --> 00:44:49,687
Ringo's...
681
00:44:50,021 --> 00:44:51,397
He's my friend.
682
00:44:59,655 --> 00:45:01,491
I'll tell you something, Brian.
683
00:45:02,117 --> 00:45:04,410
The fans will never forget this.
684
00:45:04,410 --> 00:45:06,537
Pete, I'd like to put you
in a different group.
685
00:45:14,504 --> 00:45:16,172
- Can I just...
- No.
686
00:45:18,759 --> 00:45:20,218
Just give it time.
687
00:45:20,218 --> 00:45:21,970
The fans will forgive you.
688
00:45:22,595 --> 00:45:24,055
I hope Pete can.
689
00:45:25,223 --> 00:45:27,267
He'll put it behind him.
He's tougher than that.
690
00:45:27,267 --> 00:45:28,977
He's a Liverpool lad.
691
00:45:28,977 --> 00:45:30,061
Alastair,
692
00:45:30,979 --> 00:45:33,774
not forgetting is how Liverpool survives.
693
00:45:59,841 --> 00:46:01,259
Looks great, Freda.
694
00:46:01,676 --> 00:46:03,261
Looks great, Freda!
695
00:46:19,610 --> 00:46:21,905
So, 49th in the charts?
696
00:46:22,155 --> 00:46:24,950
-No business talk at the table.
- Just asking.
697
00:46:24,950 --> 00:46:26,534
It's only the first week.
698
00:46:26,868 --> 00:46:28,829
And how much are you making on that?
699
00:46:28,829 --> 00:46:30,330
- Harry?
- What?
700
00:46:30,330 --> 00:46:32,290
Penny a disc, between five.
701
00:46:32,290 --> 00:46:34,292
Clive, stop teasing your brother.
702
00:46:35,251 --> 00:46:36,502
Well,
703
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,841
they're no Frank Sinatra,
but it's a very nice tune.
704
00:46:42,092 --> 00:46:47,430
I telephoned all the radio stations
and I asked them to play it again, twice.
705
00:46:48,849 --> 00:46:51,977
I might have to do some new voices.
They all seem to know who am I.
706
00:46:52,769 --> 00:46:54,938
Wonder if Elvis's mum
had to telephone radio stations.
707
00:46:54,938 --> 00:46:56,481
When I meet him, I'll ask him.
708
00:46:57,232 --> 00:46:58,775
Just give me a bit more time.
709
00:47:00,151 --> 00:47:04,447
You should go back to selling furniture,
because people always need chairs.
710
00:47:04,447 --> 00:47:05,782
Harry, stop.
711
00:47:19,796 --> 00:47:20,630
Brian,
712
00:47:22,423 --> 00:47:23,549
please...
713
00:48:54,265 --> 00:48:56,392
- Your watch.
- What?
714
00:49:00,814 --> 00:49:02,607
Please, it's my grandfather's.
715
00:49:02,607 --> 00:49:04,275
All right.
716
00:49:13,576 --> 00:49:16,246
I know who you are, Mr Epstein.
717
00:49:39,727 --> 00:49:41,312
Terrible things can happen
718
00:49:41,312 --> 00:49:44,482
when you're forced by law
to live in the shadows.
719
00:49:46,860 --> 00:49:48,319
On another night,
720
00:49:48,611 --> 00:49:51,281
a man beats me
with a broken milk bottle,
721
00:49:52,740 --> 00:49:53,992
goes to prison.
722
00:49:54,951 --> 00:49:57,537
When he gets out, I help him find a job.
723
00:49:59,747 --> 00:50:01,207
I feel sorry for him,
724
00:50:02,834 --> 00:50:04,002
I always do.
725
00:50:07,713 --> 00:50:10,258
But there's no time
to feel sorry for myself.
726
00:50:10,675 --> 00:50:12,177
I'm far too busy.
727
00:50:13,094 --> 00:50:16,306
And if my private life barely charts,
728
00:50:17,182 --> 00:50:20,393
my professional one
is one hit after another.
729
00:50:22,353 --> 00:50:24,147
Whatever it is, can't be that bad.
730
00:50:24,147 --> 00:50:25,523
Don't you ever knock?
731
00:50:25,982 --> 00:50:28,276
Not on open doors usually, but,
732
00:50:28,276 --> 00:50:29,444
well, I can go.
733
00:50:29,444 --> 00:50:31,737
No, it's fine. What is it?
734
00:50:32,613 --> 00:50:34,699
I just thought
you'd want to know that
735
00:50:35,116 --> 00:50:36,742
"From Me to You" is number 1.
736
00:50:37,994 --> 00:50:39,745
The Beatles are number 1.
737
00:50:41,289 --> 00:50:43,875
So I suppose it's teas
all round, isn't it?
738
00:50:43,875 --> 00:50:46,878
Or are you saving that
for Cilla Black's first single?
739
00:50:47,378 --> 00:50:49,756
Or Gerry and the Pacemakers'
next number 1?
740
00:50:50,924 --> 00:50:54,845
Won't you tell me how do you do it?
741
00:50:54,845 --> 00:50:57,806
How do you do what you do?
742
00:51:03,644 --> 00:51:05,146
We sign more groups.
743
00:51:05,146 --> 00:51:07,774
Our roster of artists
spreading the Liverpool sound
744
00:51:07,774 --> 00:51:09,609
to every town in the country.
745
00:51:09,609 --> 00:51:11,236
Gerry and the Pacemakers,
746
00:51:11,236 --> 00:51:13,822
a huge crowd puller
and a huge personality.
747
00:51:13,822 --> 00:51:16,867
Our second signing,
but our first UK number 1.
748
00:51:16,867 --> 00:51:18,201
And don't you forget it.
749
00:51:18,201 --> 00:51:20,954
- Hey, pace yourself.
- Boys, play nice.
750
00:51:20,954 --> 00:51:23,623
Our first signing,
but you know all about them.
751
00:51:23,957 --> 00:51:26,542
Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas.
752
00:51:26,542 --> 00:51:29,462
So handsome, and what a voice.
753
00:51:29,462 --> 00:51:31,672
Tommy Quigley,
he's going to be a star,
754
00:51:31,672 --> 00:51:32,758
mark my words.
755
00:51:33,008 --> 00:51:34,300
Tommy Quickly.
756
00:51:34,300 --> 00:51:36,011
- Much snappier.
- Yeah.
757
00:51:36,469 --> 00:51:39,180
And of course,
my beloved Cilla.
758
00:51:39,848 --> 00:51:41,599
The Mersey sound.
759
00:51:42,100 --> 00:51:44,560
A sound that means something
different from what it did
760
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,772
when Liverpool
was just an important port.
761
00:51:46,772 --> 00:51:49,357
Because now, much to its surprise,
the great northern city
762
00:51:49,357 --> 00:51:50,525
has got a new industry
763
00:51:50,525 --> 00:51:54,279
as incongruous as the soot
on its classical buildings.
764
00:51:54,570 --> 00:51:59,492
♪ Then perhaps you'd fall for me
like I fell for you ♪
765
00:52:00,701 --> 00:52:02,745
Hello, love. Well?
766
00:52:02,745 --> 00:52:04,915
You look fantastic.
767
00:52:05,373 --> 00:52:06,707
I got you these.
768
00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:08,752
You didn't have to.
769
00:52:08,752 --> 00:52:10,837
What? Not bring flowers
to me bezzy mate,
770
00:52:10,837 --> 00:52:13,131
when she's supporting
the country's number one band?
771
00:52:13,131 --> 00:52:14,632
Not bloody likely, Cilla White.
772
00:52:14,632 --> 00:52:16,634
- Oh wait, Cilla Black.
- Oh, sorry, I forgot.
773
00:52:16,634 --> 00:52:18,469
So do I, all the time.
774
00:52:19,054 --> 00:52:20,138
God, I'm so nervous.
775
00:52:20,138 --> 00:52:21,597
No need, it's only The Beatles
776
00:52:21,597 --> 00:52:23,474
- and they're never off your mum's sofa.
- Yeah, I know.
777
00:52:23,767 --> 00:52:25,393
If Brian hadn't discovered me,
778
00:52:25,393 --> 00:52:27,687
I'd still be picking coats
off The Cavern floor.
779
00:52:27,687 --> 00:52:30,065
He's a bit of a looker,
that Brian Epstein.
780
00:52:30,065 --> 00:52:32,525
You don't see his sort
'round Scotty road, do you?
781
00:52:32,525 --> 00:52:34,027
He's like a film star.
782
00:52:34,027 --> 00:52:35,653
Who's like a film star?
783
00:52:37,781 --> 00:52:40,283
You should be in there doing
your vocal warm-ups, Ms Black.
784
00:52:40,283 --> 00:52:42,327
Ah, too late.
785
00:52:42,327 --> 00:52:43,744
These are for you.
786
00:52:44,370 --> 00:52:46,289
You're spoiling me rotten.
787
00:52:46,747 --> 00:52:48,291
Be a love, and take them in there.
788
00:52:48,291 --> 00:52:49,667
Of course. Good luck, Cil.
789
00:52:49,667 --> 00:52:51,086
We say break a leg.
790
00:52:51,086 --> 00:52:52,754
Not in these nylons, we don't.
791
00:52:53,004 --> 00:52:55,506
- They cost a bleedin' fortune.
- Come on.
792
00:52:55,506 --> 00:52:56,800
You look marvellous, by the way.
793
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:57,926
- Have I told you?
- Thank you.
794
00:52:58,259 --> 00:53:02,180
I just wanted to come
and say best of luck, Cyril.
795
00:53:02,180 --> 00:53:04,349
Oh, bugger off, Ringo.
796
00:53:04,933 --> 00:53:05,767
I'll kill him.
797
00:53:06,351 --> 00:53:08,561
They're not going to call me
Cyril on stage, are they?
798
00:53:08,561 --> 00:53:09,687
Certainly not.
799
00:53:11,940 --> 00:53:13,984
Right, darling.
Time to shine.
800
00:53:18,738 --> 00:53:20,240
I love you, Eppy.
801
00:53:20,907 --> 00:53:22,492
The feeling's mutual.
802
00:53:22,492 --> 00:53:25,036
Yeah, but I've got a fellow.
What about you?
803
00:53:27,413 --> 00:53:28,414
Okay.
804
00:53:37,507 --> 00:53:44,097
♪ You're my world,
you're every breath I take
805
00:53:45,306 --> 00:53:48,601
♪ You're my world, you're every move
806
00:53:49,227 --> 00:53:51,813
♪ I make ♪
807
00:54:01,322 --> 00:54:02,490
Brian?
808
00:54:05,368 --> 00:54:07,078
What are you both still doing up?
809
00:54:08,872 --> 00:54:12,208
We had a call from a young man
810
00:54:12,583 --> 00:54:16,629
who says he knows you
and he wants money.
811
00:54:24,763 --> 00:54:26,014
I'll handle it.
812
00:54:26,765 --> 00:54:27,933
Handle it?
813
00:54:29,475 --> 00:54:31,311
You're not paying him off.
814
00:54:31,311 --> 00:54:33,188
We're going to the police station
in the morning.
815
00:54:33,188 --> 00:54:34,647
- We can't.
- Let them handle it.
816
00:54:34,647 --> 00:54:37,108
If we go to the police, I'll get charged.
I could go to jail.
817
00:54:37,108 --> 00:54:38,318
No, you won't go to jail.
818
00:54:38,318 --> 00:54:40,403
We'll tell them
that you're were just not well.
819
00:54:40,904 --> 00:54:42,488
Harry, he is not going anywhere.
820
00:54:42,488 --> 00:54:43,990
It's worth a try.
821
00:54:45,325 --> 00:54:47,577
I mean,
you can't be happy like this, Brian.
822
00:54:47,577 --> 00:54:49,495
Harry, I have read about this.
823
00:54:49,495 --> 00:54:50,872
He is not sick.
824
00:54:50,872 --> 00:54:53,041
He just can't change the way that he is.
825
00:54:54,042 --> 00:54:55,460
That's typical of you,
826
00:54:56,502 --> 00:54:58,129
making allowances.
827
00:54:59,339 --> 00:55:00,590
What are you all doing up?
828
00:55:05,470 --> 00:55:06,930
I'll give him money.
829
00:55:06,930 --> 00:55:07,889
It won't be much.
830
00:55:07,889 --> 00:55:09,557
- He'll go away.
- What about the next time?
831
00:55:09,975 --> 00:55:11,351
And the time after that?
832
00:55:12,352 --> 00:55:14,104
What will people say?
833
00:55:14,645 --> 00:55:15,981
Is that all you care about?
Your reputation?
834
00:55:15,981 --> 00:55:20,110
No.
Our reputation, our business, our family!
835
00:55:20,861 --> 00:55:23,864
You need to be more careful,
less trusting.
836
00:55:23,864 --> 00:55:25,615
It's not just about you!
837
00:55:26,157 --> 00:55:29,786
And what about your boys and Cilla?
838
00:55:30,161 --> 00:55:33,498
If the papers got hold of this,
it could destroy them.
839
00:55:34,082 --> 00:55:35,625
We're worried about you, love.
840
00:55:37,210 --> 00:55:38,253
I'm sorry.
841
00:55:39,212 --> 00:55:40,296
I'm sorry.
842
00:55:41,464 --> 00:55:43,967
I know how much pain I've caused you.
843
00:55:45,385 --> 00:55:46,677
I won't be here much longer anyway.
844
00:55:46,677 --> 00:55:49,347
I'm moving NEMS Enterprises to London.
It's time.
845
00:55:49,347 --> 00:55:51,557
- What?
- You never said anything to me.
846
00:55:51,557 --> 00:55:53,684
What are you talking about?
Now's not the time.
847
00:55:54,394 --> 00:55:55,520
You have to lay low.
848
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:58,023
- You have to take it slow.
- Slow down?
849
00:55:59,649 --> 00:56:01,067
I've hardly started.
850
00:56:06,406 --> 00:56:09,200
I've set up the London office
next to the Palladium Theatre,
851
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,244
right in the heart of the West End.
852
00:56:11,244 --> 00:56:15,081
The boys keep growing bigger and bigger,
and that means a lot more people,
853
00:56:15,081 --> 00:56:17,333
press, bookings, publicity.
854
00:56:17,333 --> 00:56:18,919
- Morning, Felicity.
- Morning, Brian.
855
00:56:18,919 --> 00:56:21,296
Finance, more love.
856
00:56:22,130 --> 00:56:26,592
The road team led by Mal Evans,
and little brother Clive's office.
857
00:56:26,592 --> 00:56:30,388
Now co-director, but mostly back home,
dealing with our Liverpool operation.
858
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:32,849
Father's happy
that we're keeping it in the family.
859
00:56:32,849 --> 00:56:34,517
He has another pair of eyes.
860
00:56:34,810 --> 00:56:35,769
But I don't need them.
861
00:56:36,186 --> 00:56:38,646
I know exactly where we are going.
862
00:56:44,277 --> 00:56:45,486
I've had to sneak in this again.
863
00:56:52,035 --> 00:56:54,245
All the stars chosen
to appear this evening,
864
00:56:54,245 --> 00:56:56,414
and of course it's a great honour
to be chosen for this performance,
865
00:56:56,414 --> 00:56:58,416
have given their services free.
866
00:56:58,416 --> 00:56:59,918
Have I got this right?
867
00:56:59,918 --> 00:57:04,130
Marlene Dietrich is also doing
the Royal Command performance?
868
00:57:04,130 --> 00:57:05,715
Yes, and Burt Bacharach,
869
00:57:05,715 --> 00:57:08,718
Steptoe and Son, Buddy Greco.
870
00:57:08,718 --> 00:57:12,472
Are we the only ones there
that aren't posh BBC types?
871
00:57:13,389 --> 00:57:16,017
Well I mean,
Burt Bacharach's American, for starters.
872
00:57:16,392 --> 00:57:17,518
This is a good point, though.
873
00:57:17,518 --> 00:57:19,938
Why are we appearing
with all these greats?
874
00:57:19,938 --> 00:57:22,190
Our fans
won't even be in the audience.
875
00:57:22,190 --> 00:57:24,359
That's because they can't afford
a bloody ticket.
876
00:57:24,359 --> 00:57:27,070
Well you do need to know
Princess Margaret for an invite.
877
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:28,864
Brian doesn't know her.
878
00:57:29,155 --> 00:57:31,825
Do you know what it is?
You got to have pots and pots--
879
00:57:33,076 --> 00:57:34,828
All right. Thank you, John.
880
00:57:35,954 --> 00:57:36,662
Don't.
881
00:57:37,956 --> 00:57:38,915
Don't what?
882
00:57:39,207 --> 00:57:40,583
Forget my station.
883
00:57:41,292 --> 00:57:43,044
Say something I shouldn't.
884
00:57:44,004 --> 00:57:46,422
On stage I can pretty much say
what I like.
885
00:57:47,382 --> 00:57:48,800
I could even swear.
886
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:49,801
No.
887
00:57:50,468 --> 00:57:51,803
And I will.
888
00:57:53,096 --> 00:57:53,679
He won't.
889
00:57:53,679 --> 00:57:55,473
- He might.
- He might.
890
00:57:55,849 --> 00:57:57,976
No, it's decided. I'm going to do it.
891
00:57:57,976 --> 00:57:59,727
He will.
892
00:58:00,061 --> 00:58:01,229
Here we go.
893
00:58:01,229 --> 00:58:03,606
Marlene, I'm coming for you.
894
00:58:04,399 --> 00:58:05,733
There's the princess.
895
00:58:06,026 --> 00:58:06,860
Hello!
896
00:58:17,162 --> 00:58:18,246
Thank you.
897
00:58:19,289 --> 00:58:22,959
For our last number,
we'd like to ask your help.
898
00:58:24,294 --> 00:58:26,171
BRIAN [To himself]: No, don't do it, John.
Don't do it.
899
00:58:28,714 --> 00:58:30,926
Would the people in the cheaper seats
clap your hands?
900
00:58:32,010 --> 00:58:35,096
And the rest of you,
you just rattle your jewellery.
901
00:58:40,143 --> 00:58:41,061
Thank you.
902
00:58:42,228 --> 00:58:44,272
I'd like to sing a song called "Money".
903
00:59:00,872 --> 00:59:03,708

00:59:04,459 --> 00:59:07,045

920
01:00:11,777 --> 01:00:13,820
This is more than a new kind of music.
921
01:00:14,112 --> 01:00:17,573
It's a new kind of Britain
now for the rest of the world.
922
01:00:37,385 --> 01:00:41,222
This is where the boys need to be
if they're really going to sell records.
923
01:00:41,222 --> 01:00:43,767
Where they can become global stars.
924
01:00:44,225 --> 01:00:46,727
But they need to be seen:
925
01:00:46,727 --> 01:00:49,064
everywhere and by everyone.
926
01:00:49,898 --> 01:00:54,235
A man watched by 50 million people
every night can make that happen.
927
01:00:54,778 --> 01:00:57,405
That man is Ed Sullivan.
928

01:01:11,711 --> 01:01:13,379
He's the youngest, 18.
931
01:01:15,173 --> 01:01:15,757
Thank you.
932
01:01:16,925 --> 01:01:19,094
I took the liberty of ordering for you.
933
01:01:19,719 --> 01:01:20,345
Thank you.
934
01:01:24,766 --> 01:01:26,559
Son, it's a hamburger.
935
01:01:26,559 --> 01:01:28,436
- Eat it with your hands.
- Of course.
936
01:01:29,395 --> 01:01:31,356
I haven't seen this much beef in a year.
937
01:01:32,232 --> 01:01:33,358
That's because you're in New York.
938
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,488
Look, you've got three record releases,
none of them even graze the top 100.
939
01:01:38,864 --> 01:01:40,573
Well, not here, no,
but we're just warming up.
940
01:01:41,741 --> 01:01:43,034
You got any concerts booked?
941
01:01:43,034 --> 01:01:44,577
Two, at Carnegie Hall.
942
01:01:45,036 --> 01:01:46,830
Are you worried it might be too big?
943
01:01:46,830 --> 01:01:48,748
No, I'm worried it won't be big enough.
944
01:01:50,541 --> 01:01:51,752
All right, so what do you want from me?
945
01:01:51,752 --> 01:01:53,128
Three consecutive shows.
946
01:01:54,420 --> 01:01:56,297
For an unknown band from England?
947
01:01:56,297 --> 01:01:58,925
- Hah, I don't think so.
- Better than England: Liverpool.
948
01:02:01,762 --> 01:02:02,971
You can't be serious.
949
01:02:02,971 --> 01:02:05,681
Well, Capitol are spending
$50,000 on promotion.
950
01:02:05,681 --> 01:02:08,559
And I've signed
a nationwide merchandise deal.
951
01:02:09,394 --> 01:02:12,773
They might be unknown today,
but they're going to be bigger than Elvis.
952
01:02:13,857 --> 01:02:16,192
When people ask,
"Where did you first see The Beatles?"
953
01:02:16,192 --> 01:02:18,444
Don't you want the answer to be,
"On the Ed Sullivan show"?
954
01:02:19,445 --> 01:02:21,572
This is a great opportunity for you.
955
01:02:21,572 --> 01:02:23,324
A great opportunity?
Let me tell you something, okay?
956
01:02:23,324 --> 01:02:25,911
You're on my time.
You're in my town.
957
01:02:26,369 --> 01:02:29,205
If I need four musicians from England,
I can get them like that.
958
01:02:29,790 --> 01:02:30,874
Got a lot of nerve.
959
01:02:41,009 --> 01:02:42,052
Mmm.
960
01:02:44,679 --> 01:02:46,389
I heard about your trip to London.
961
01:02:48,516 --> 01:02:49,851
Really?
What did you hear?
962
01:02:51,019 --> 01:02:55,982
Well, I heard that you almost missed
your flight home because of my boys.
963
01:02:58,151 --> 01:03:00,904
Crowd was so big at the airport,
you thought the Queen must have landed.
964
01:03:01,696 --> 01:03:03,114
They call that "Beatlemania".
965
01:03:06,701 --> 01:03:08,744
You pay 10,000 for acts
at top of the bill, right?
966
01:03:08,744 --> 01:03:10,580
- That's right.
- All right, let's try this.
967
01:03:12,916 --> 01:03:14,960
We'll play three shows for 10,000.
968
01:03:15,626 --> 01:03:16,586
All headliners.
969
01:03:29,682 --> 01:03:31,601
Boychik, you did it.
970
01:03:31,935 --> 01:03:35,230
Nat Weiss, my American business partner,
works hard, plays even harder.
971
01:03:35,230 --> 01:03:37,648
Well, you are some operator.
972
01:03:37,648 --> 01:03:40,735
Three shows at top billing?
Mazel tov.
973
01:03:40,735 --> 01:03:43,321
We're going to struggle
to break even at $10,000.
974
01:03:44,990 --> 01:03:48,451
Brian, you just nailed
the biggest TV show in the country.
975
01:03:48,451 --> 01:03:50,996
There are going to be riots
at Carnegie Hall.
976
01:03:50,996 --> 01:03:52,956
We need a number one over here first.
977
01:03:53,414 --> 01:03:54,750
The boys are worried.
I'm worried.
978
01:03:56,042 --> 01:03:58,544
I see you're a glass-half-full
kind of guy.
979
01:03:59,295 --> 01:04:00,839
You'll sell tickets.
980
01:04:00,839 --> 01:04:02,090
I already bought mine.
981
01:04:04,259 --> 01:04:05,718
So, a toast
982
01:04:06,344 --> 01:04:10,723
to ticket sales
and new opportunities.
983
01:04:17,563 --> 01:04:18,731
L'Chaim.
984
01:04:20,691 --> 01:04:21,902
L'Chaim.
985
01:04:24,112 --> 01:04:26,739
But you really think
you could've done better than 10%, Clive?
986
01:04:27,157 --> 01:04:28,408
You know about merchandise, do you?
987
01:04:30,035 --> 01:04:32,287
Just let me handle it
when I get back, for God's sake.
988
01:04:39,085 --> 01:04:40,170
Can I get you another?
989
01:04:43,965 --> 01:04:44,841
Thank you.
990
01:04:48,178 --> 01:04:49,679
I am John Ellington.
991
01:04:51,097 --> 01:04:52,933
People like to call me Tex.
992
01:04:53,516 --> 01:04:54,935
I'm Brian Epstein.
993
01:04:54,935 --> 01:04:56,394
People like to call me Brian.
994
01:04:59,815 --> 01:05:01,357
So you're a finance guy, Brian?
995
01:05:02,108 --> 01:05:03,401
Is that how I come across?
996
01:05:04,778 --> 01:05:06,529
You look like you were born in that suit.
997
01:05:06,529 --> 01:05:10,992
Well, I suppose I've always felt
more comfortable in uniform.
998
01:05:14,495 --> 01:05:16,414
I don't normally speak
so much about myself.
999
01:05:16,414 --> 01:05:17,457
What is it you do?
1000
01:05:18,374 --> 01:05:19,334
I'm an actor.
1001
01:05:19,334 --> 01:05:20,626
Oh, marvellous.
How's that going?
1002
01:05:20,626 --> 01:05:22,045
Just great.
1003
01:05:22,754 --> 01:05:25,006
I'm in a show right now
just off Broadway.
1004
01:05:25,006 --> 01:05:26,758
Well, I'm a theatre fan.
Just tell me where.
1005
01:05:27,258 --> 01:05:30,220
Well, it's in a place called
Harry's bar and grill.
1006
01:05:30,929 --> 01:05:33,514
I play the part of the lousy waiter
with big dreams.
1007
01:05:33,974 --> 01:05:35,558
Well, I admire you for sticking with it.
1008
01:05:36,768 --> 01:05:38,686
I wanted to be an actor once,
and I knew I wasn't good enough.
1009
01:05:38,686 --> 01:05:39,729
Oh, I'm good enough.
1010
01:05:43,441 --> 01:05:47,195
Just need someone to see that,
to believe in me.
1011
01:05:47,487 --> 01:05:48,488
Well, I'm sure it'll happen.
1012
01:05:52,242 --> 01:05:52,868
You think?
1013
01:05:54,077 --> 01:05:55,078
I'm certain.
1014
01:05:58,581 --> 01:05:59,582
It's getting late.
1015
01:06:00,666 --> 01:06:02,043
I didn't want to keep you.
1016
01:06:03,294 --> 01:06:04,670
I was kind of hoping you would.
1017
01:06:30,363 --> 01:06:31,614
Don't you ever stop working?
1018
01:06:33,992 --> 01:06:34,951
Afraid not.
1019
01:06:35,952 --> 01:06:39,080
I guess lazy guys
don't end up in suites like this.
1020
01:06:40,999 --> 01:06:42,083
Would you like some coffee?
1021
01:06:42,542 --> 01:06:44,753
Time to eat.
I've ordered breakfast.
1022
01:06:45,295 --> 01:06:47,213
No, thank you.
1023
01:06:50,466 --> 01:06:51,426
I got to get going.
1024
01:06:59,851 --> 01:07:00,977
I'll be seeing you.
1025
01:07:03,063 --> 01:07:04,189
Wait a minute.
1026
01:07:20,163 --> 01:07:22,999
That's my address
and telephone number.
1027
01:07:24,334 --> 01:07:26,419
If ever you're in London.
1028
01:07:31,382 --> 01:07:33,051
I'll start saving for a flight.
1029
01:07:45,605 --> 01:07:46,689
Bye, Tex.
1030
01:07:50,986 --> 01:07:51,862
Goodbye, Brian.
1031
01:08:01,913 --> 01:08:03,915
Paris. City of Gaiety.
1032
01:08:05,959 --> 01:08:09,462
Gay by night, gay and bright by day,
so come down from the clouds
1033
01:08:09,462 --> 01:08:12,215
and breathe in some of the atmosphere
in a 24-hour...
1034
01:08:13,716 --> 01:08:15,761
Nice, these French breakfasts,
aren't they?
1035
01:08:16,970 --> 01:08:18,346
I don't like them, you know?
1036
01:08:18,346 --> 01:08:19,639
They give me a bad tummy.
1037
01:08:21,349 --> 01:08:22,267
Almost.
1038
01:08:22,683 --> 01:08:25,311
Pass us one of those French fags,
would you, John?
1039
01:08:26,229 --> 01:08:27,647
They're called Gitanes.
1040
01:08:27,647 --> 01:08:30,275
Means "gipsy" in French.
1041
01:08:30,275 --> 01:08:31,943
You'd know; you're a posh pudding.
1042
01:08:31,943 --> 01:08:33,111
Go on, I'll have one of those.
1043
01:08:33,111 --> 01:08:34,070
All right.
1044
01:08:35,238 --> 01:08:36,156
Hi, Brian.
1045
01:08:38,033 --> 01:08:41,161
"I Want to Hold Your Hand"
is number 1 in America.
1046
01:08:42,495 --> 01:08:45,832
We're number 1 in America!
1047
01:08:50,003 --> 01:08:51,171
Let's have it!
1048
01:08:52,422 --> 01:08:54,674
Now, lads, let's take it easy.
1049
01:08:54,674 --> 01:08:56,009
Pillow fight.
1050
01:08:58,178 --> 01:08:59,137
Come here.
1051
01:09:01,932 --> 01:09:03,558
Hey, you lost one.
1052
01:09:04,976 --> 01:09:07,145
That's mine.
Give it back, Brian.
1053
01:09:07,145 --> 01:09:08,438
Brian!
Brian!
1054
01:09:09,314 --> 01:09:11,858
And now, for the youngsters,
1055
01:09:12,275 --> 01:09:13,609
The Beatles!
1056
01:09:14,444 --> 01:09:17,447
"Congratulations on your appearance
on the Ed Sullivan show.
1057
01:09:17,738 --> 01:09:20,325
Sincerely, Elvis and the Colonel."
1058
01:09:21,201 --> 01:09:22,202
Elvis.
1059
01:09:22,828 --> 01:09:24,245
He wasn't the only one watching.
1060
01:09:24,245 --> 01:09:28,624
Seventy-four million Americans
saw the show, that's 40% of the country.
1061
01:09:28,624 --> 01:09:32,295
Added to A Hard Day's Night
opening in cinemas just before we arrive,
1062
01:09:32,295 --> 01:09:33,922
and I feel confident about the tour.
1063
01:09:41,387 --> 01:09:45,058
32 shows
in 25 cities over 31 days.
1064
01:09:45,058 --> 01:09:47,185
It's a lot, but I've got it well-planned.
1065
01:09:47,185 --> 01:09:51,064
Nice easy start in San Francisco,
where they like to throw jelly beans.
1066
01:09:51,064 --> 01:09:54,442
Lots of jelly beans.
We had to stop the show twice.
1067
01:09:54,442 --> 01:09:55,819
Then it's Vegas.
1068
01:09:55,819 --> 01:09:59,823
Neon lights, no clocks,
and police dogs to protect the boys.
1069
01:10:00,115 --> 01:10:02,200
They should be protecting me
from the roulette table.
1070
01:10:02,700 --> 01:10:05,370
Next is Seattle,
then nip over the border to Vancouver,
1071
01:10:05,370 --> 01:10:07,622
where the support act
complain to me personally
1072
01:10:07,622 --> 01:10:10,166
that they can't be heard
over screaming for The Beatles.
1073
01:10:10,666 --> 01:10:11,709
Sorry, chaps.
1074
01:10:11,709 --> 01:10:15,421
Oh, I know the boys are loved,
but the bedsheets they slept in?
1075
01:10:15,421 --> 01:10:16,422
Really?
1076
01:10:16,422 --> 01:10:18,133
I should mention it to merchandising.
1077
01:10:18,508 --> 01:10:20,510
The cities start to blur into one.
1078
01:10:20,510 --> 01:10:23,054
We go everywhere, but we see nothing.
1079
01:10:23,054 --> 01:10:25,140
Oh, God.
Philadelphia.
1080
01:10:25,140 --> 01:10:27,642
After three days of race riots.
1081
01:10:27,642 --> 01:10:29,185
The police chief is panicking.
1082
01:10:29,185 --> 01:10:30,937
"We're outnumbered by your fans"
1083
01:10:30,937 --> 01:10:34,775
so he's smuggling the boys in
from Atlantic City in a fish truck.
1084
01:10:34,775 --> 01:10:37,152
It's a smart, if smelly, solution.
1085
01:10:38,194 --> 01:10:39,445
No, I made it clear
1086
01:10:39,445 --> 01:10:41,614
that we do not perform
to segregated audiences.
1087
01:10:41,614 --> 01:10:42,866
I put that in the contract.
1088
01:10:43,199 --> 01:10:45,576
In Jacksonville, Florida,
the promoter needs reminding.
1089
01:10:51,457 --> 01:10:54,002
Nowhere we go
can the airport security stop girls
1090
01:10:54,002 --> 01:10:57,172
getting under the plane and writing
"I love Ringo" in lipstick.
1091
01:10:57,505 --> 01:11:02,886
Honestly, the only place we can all relax
is 30,000 feet in the air.
1092
01:11:03,594 --> 01:11:08,224
For all the madness, our last performance
is a no-fee charity concert in New York.
1093
01:11:08,641 --> 01:11:11,686
Only 4,000 fans, but er, well...
1094
01:11:12,562 --> 01:11:14,147
I've always wanted to do this.
1095
01:11:23,573 --> 01:11:25,075
Well, welcome back, Beatles.
1096
01:11:25,075 --> 01:11:29,245
You had a marvellous trip and a homecoming
such as nobody's had before.
1097
01:11:34,250 --> 01:11:35,919
Thank you all for coming.
1098
01:11:38,713 --> 01:11:42,508
It's a very big day in a man's life
when his first son gets married.
1099
01:11:43,343 --> 01:11:45,511
All we really have is family.
1100
01:11:46,679 --> 01:11:48,974
It is only through the lives
of our children
1101
01:11:48,974 --> 01:11:54,270
that we truly understand
the value of life.
1102
01:12:00,443 --> 01:12:02,153
I knew I'd find you out here.
1103
01:12:03,279 --> 01:12:06,532
Da da da, what do you think?
Do do do...
1104
01:12:07,158 --> 01:12:08,534
What a do this is.
1105
01:12:09,786 --> 01:12:12,122
All that food and dancing.
1106
01:12:12,122 --> 01:12:13,581
That food!
1107
01:12:13,581 --> 01:12:14,958
I mean...
1108
01:12:15,959 --> 01:12:17,710
When Bobby asks me to marry him,
1109
01:12:18,211 --> 01:12:21,672
I swear I'll only say yes if he agrees
to us having a Jewish wedding.
1110
01:12:22,215 --> 01:12:23,216
That'd be a problem.
1111
01:12:24,050 --> 01:12:25,301
Spoilsport.
1112
01:12:25,301 --> 01:12:28,429
- Hey, you can give me away.
- No, I'm never giving you away.
1113
01:12:28,429 --> 01:12:29,765
Silly.
I don't mean...
1114
01:12:30,181 --> 01:12:33,559
Anyway, my dad would have a fit.
No one's stealing his thunder.
1115
01:12:34,853 --> 01:12:36,396
It's rather like my own father.
1116
01:12:38,899 --> 01:12:40,441
Bless him.
He's all emotional.
1117
01:12:41,567 --> 01:12:43,028
You're upset, I can tell.
1118
01:12:43,528 --> 01:12:45,571
I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it.
1119
01:12:45,947 --> 01:12:47,032
Probably not.
1120
01:12:47,407 --> 01:12:49,575
He just wants to see you happy,
that's all.
1121
01:12:49,575 --> 01:12:51,870
You know, like your brother
and his missus.
1122
01:12:56,917 --> 01:12:58,293
- Oh, dear.
- You're cold.
1123
01:12:59,085 --> 01:12:59,710
Well, yeah.
1124
01:12:59,710 --> 01:13:02,088
There's not much to this frock,
so I'm freezing.
1125
01:13:03,089 --> 01:13:04,674
Call yourself a northern girl?
1126
01:13:07,593 --> 01:13:09,679
Oh, what a gentleman.
1127
01:13:13,724 --> 01:13:15,643
You don't half have some nice clobber.
1128
01:13:16,436 --> 01:13:19,189
Hey, I love that big coat that you wear.
1129
01:13:19,189 --> 01:13:21,066
You're a star, silly.
You can have whatever you want.
1130
01:13:21,066 --> 01:13:23,777
Oh, shut up, Eppy.
It's too much already, honestly.
1131
01:13:24,694 --> 01:13:28,364
Keep thinking someone's going to come
and turn the lights on and say,
1132
01:13:28,364 --> 01:13:30,533
"Come on, Cil.
Hey, you're late for work.
1133
01:13:30,533 --> 01:13:32,452
Those butties won't make themselves."
1134
01:13:36,289 --> 01:13:37,665
You really think I'm a star?
1135
01:13:38,541 --> 01:13:39,709
I've never doubted it.
1136
01:13:41,377 --> 01:13:42,378
It's all down to you.
1137
01:13:43,254 --> 01:13:45,590
Nonsense. It's your talent.
I just do the window dressing.
1138
01:13:45,590 --> 01:13:46,842
Don't you dare.
1139
01:13:47,675 --> 01:13:49,594
We all know how hard you work for us.
1140
01:13:49,594 --> 01:13:50,678
You never stop.
1141
01:13:51,888 --> 01:13:53,348
You're still gorgeous, mind.
1142
01:13:53,890 --> 01:13:54,557
Thank you.
1143
01:13:55,391 --> 01:13:56,517
This is nice.
1144
01:14:03,108 --> 01:14:05,485
Oh, I'm glad you like the bracelet.
1145
01:14:06,027 --> 01:14:08,279
Like it?
I bloody love it!
1146
01:14:10,698 --> 01:14:12,033
Who's buying you presents?
1147
01:14:15,745 --> 01:14:18,289
Who could afford to?
I've got far too expensive taste.
1148
01:14:18,289 --> 01:14:20,500
Be serious, though.
I'm worried about you.
1149
01:14:20,500 --> 01:14:22,377
You've not brought
anyone special to the wedding?
1150
01:14:24,212 --> 01:14:27,298
Clive's has kept me far too busy
with best man duties.
1151
01:14:27,548 --> 01:14:28,716
You're always busy.
1152
01:14:29,968 --> 01:14:31,469
I need things done my way.
1153
01:14:32,428 --> 01:14:33,805
That way they'll be perfect.
1154
01:14:35,723 --> 01:14:39,519
What you need, Brian,
is someone perfect for you.
1155
01:14:41,062 --> 01:14:42,272
Like Bobby is for me.
1156
01:14:44,524 --> 01:14:46,484
And you know, whoever it is,
1157
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,279
they'll be getting a diamond.
1158
01:14:51,782 --> 01:14:53,033
You're a good man, Eppy.
1159
01:14:53,658 --> 01:14:54,993
You've got so much heart.
1160
01:14:57,412 --> 01:14:58,371
Give it to someone.
1161
01:15:05,670 --> 01:15:07,463
Anyone who had a heart
1162
01:15:07,463 --> 01:15:13,636
would take me in his arms
and love me too, you.
1163
01:15:15,471 --> 01:15:16,347
Come here.
1164
01:15:27,067 --> 01:15:27,901
Right.
1165
01:15:29,235 --> 01:15:31,487
Are you going to come
and dance with me, then?
1166
01:15:32,197 --> 01:15:34,324
Come on.
Come on.
1167
01:15:35,325 --> 01:15:37,452
You need to teach me
how to do the dance that they all do.
1168
01:15:37,452 --> 01:15:39,245
I want to be lifted up on a chair.
1169
01:15:39,537 --> 01:15:40,538
I can make that happen.
1170
01:15:40,538 --> 01:15:42,373
- I'm taking this jacket, by the way.
- Miss Cilla Black.
1171
01:15:43,291 --> 01:15:44,751
- You're doing the dry cleaning.
- All right.
1172
01:15:44,751 --> 01:15:47,128
Me drink, me bag.
I'm ready to go.
1173
01:15:47,128 --> 01:15:49,130
- You promise you'll be there?
- I'll be in a minute.
1174
01:15:49,130 --> 01:15:50,381
- Okay.
- I promise.
1175
01:16:21,246 --> 01:16:23,874
Mr Epstein, sir.
1176
01:16:25,583 --> 01:16:26,960
In the bath, Lonnie.
1177
01:16:28,336 --> 01:16:29,712
How are you feeling, sir?
1178
01:16:31,297 --> 01:16:32,298
I'm marvellous.
1179
01:16:32,715 --> 01:16:34,050
You better get dressed.
1180
01:16:34,550 --> 01:16:35,676
You've got a visitor.
1181
01:16:36,261 --> 01:16:39,472
The young man says he knows you
and needs to see you.
1182
01:16:40,098 --> 01:16:41,641
He's quite handsome.
1183
01:16:42,976 --> 01:16:45,061
Oh well, you should have opened with that.
1184
01:16:48,023 --> 01:16:49,440
Have you offered him a drink?
1185
01:16:50,025 --> 01:16:51,692
What am I, the help?
1186
01:16:52,861 --> 01:16:53,820
It's very good.
1187
01:17:07,583 --> 01:17:08,376
Tex.
1188
01:17:09,544 --> 01:17:10,295
Brian.
1189
01:17:11,546 --> 01:17:12,756
Nice place you have.
1190
01:17:14,758 --> 01:17:16,092
I can't believe you're here.
1191
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:18,970
Well, I had a bit of time off.
1192
01:17:24,851 --> 01:17:26,477
Well, I'll show you around.
1193
01:17:31,024 --> 01:17:32,233
That's ridiculous.
1194
01:17:33,193 --> 01:17:35,445
- No, it's not.
- You only just got here.
1195
01:17:35,445 --> 01:17:38,156
Well, if I'd known you were coming,
I'd move meetings.
1196
01:17:38,156 --> 01:17:39,490
No, you wouldn't.
1197
01:17:42,702 --> 01:17:44,454
- I want you to stay.
- Can't.
1198
01:17:44,454 --> 01:17:45,288
Why not?
1199
01:17:45,288 --> 01:17:46,539
I'm a working man.
1200
01:17:47,207 --> 01:17:48,834
You said you didn't have work.
1201
01:17:48,834 --> 01:17:50,710
Looking for work is work.
1202
01:17:51,586 --> 01:17:53,296
The actor should get paid for it.
1203
01:17:58,009 --> 01:17:59,219
I'll help you find work.
1204
01:18:00,511 --> 01:18:01,346
Sure.
1205
01:18:02,430 --> 01:18:03,807
You'll make me a fifth Beatle?
1206
01:18:03,807 --> 01:18:04,933
No, but...
1207
01:18:06,184 --> 01:18:07,560
I'll make you a star.
1208
01:18:08,854 --> 01:18:09,437
How?
1209
01:18:11,689 --> 01:18:12,732
Well,
1210
01:18:14,150 --> 01:18:15,401
I'll show you around.
1211
01:18:23,534 --> 01:18:25,036
Dangerous.
1212
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:31,459
Making promises.
1213
01:18:43,388 --> 01:18:45,723
You are looking very well,
Mrs Epstein.
1214
01:18:45,723 --> 01:18:48,643
- How's Mr Epstein?
- Oh, very busy as usual.
1215
01:18:48,643 --> 01:18:51,604
- Oh, you look wonderful, Mummy.
- You too, Brian.
1216
01:18:53,148 --> 01:18:54,315
These are for you.
1217
01:18:55,233 --> 01:18:56,902
Oh, they're beautiful.
Thank you.
1218
01:18:57,693 --> 01:19:00,030
- Where's Daddy?
- Oh, you know what your father's like.
1219
01:19:00,030 --> 01:19:03,616
It's hard enough on a weekend,
and it's such a long way.
1220
01:19:03,616 --> 01:19:04,450
I know.
1221
01:19:05,076 --> 01:19:06,536
I can't believe
you used to do that journey
1222
01:19:06,536 --> 01:19:07,578
so many times a week.
1223
01:19:07,578 --> 01:19:10,581
That's an interesting shirt, Brian.
1224
01:19:10,957 --> 01:19:13,126
You like it?
Shall I send Daddy up some?
1225
01:19:13,584 --> 01:19:15,754
Oh, yes, it's very your father.
1226
01:19:16,421 --> 01:19:17,881
Well, I thought it was different, anyway.
1227
01:19:17,881 --> 01:19:19,925
Yes, it's certainly different.
1228
01:19:20,341 --> 01:19:22,803
Different in a good way, though,
don't you think?
1229
01:19:24,220 --> 01:19:29,100
Mummy, I'd like to introduce you
to a friend of mine, John Ellington.
1230
01:19:29,768 --> 01:19:30,894
Nice to meet you, ma'am.
1231
01:19:31,436 --> 01:19:33,313
Very nice to meet you, Mr Ellington.
1232
01:19:33,563 --> 01:19:36,066
Oh, please, you can call me Tex.
1233
01:19:38,151 --> 01:19:39,485
He disgraced himself.
1234
01:19:39,485 --> 01:19:42,989
Well, I mean, 20 years ago that...
1235
01:19:43,907 --> 01:19:47,077
I can see his face now.
I can never hide these sorts of things.
1236
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:50,997
You're an actor, Mr Ellington?
1237
01:19:51,998 --> 01:19:55,043
Tex is good.
Tex is a very talented film actor, Mummy.
1238
01:19:55,543 --> 01:19:57,838
- NEMS is now representing him.
- Oh, really?
1239
01:19:57,838 --> 01:20:00,757
You know, Brian was a very good actor
when he was younger.
1240
01:20:01,049 --> 01:20:02,508
He went to RADA,
did he tell you?
1241
01:20:02,508 --> 01:20:03,468
He did.
1242
01:20:05,595 --> 01:20:08,056
Have you been in anything
that I might have seen?
1243
01:20:09,390 --> 01:20:11,184
Well, I mean, sure.
1244
01:20:12,602 --> 01:20:14,980
A few small things in America.
1245
01:20:16,356 --> 01:20:18,108
A John Wayne movie.
1246
01:20:18,108 --> 01:20:20,151
Yes, [Chuckles] a John Wayne movie.
1247
01:20:20,151 --> 01:20:21,236
Cowboys and guns.
1248
01:20:21,236 --> 01:20:23,780
I don't think they show him
too much over here.
1249
01:20:24,364 --> 01:20:26,074
Oh, no.
We got a lot of Westerns.
1250
01:20:26,074 --> 01:20:28,493
What was it we saw just the other day?
1251
01:20:29,577 --> 01:20:33,706
The Man who Shot Liberty Valance
at the ABC on Lime street.
1252
01:20:33,706 --> 01:20:34,916
Were you in that?
1253
01:20:36,376 --> 01:20:37,127
No.
1254
01:20:37,585 --> 01:20:41,172
Oh, and then there was that film
that John Wayne shot in Ireland.
1255
01:20:41,714 --> 01:20:43,466
What was it called?
Remind me, Brian.
1256
01:20:43,466 --> 01:20:44,425
The Quiet Man.
1257
01:20:44,425 --> 01:20:46,887
The Quiet Man. That's it.
Lesson to us all.
1258
01:20:47,888 --> 01:20:49,973
Were you in that film, Tex?
1259
01:20:55,020 --> 01:20:56,479
So are you, erm...
1260
01:20:57,230 --> 01:20:59,149
working on something over here?
1261
01:20:59,983 --> 01:21:02,610
Tex has had some very good meetings.
We're just waiting to hear.
1262
01:21:02,986 --> 01:21:04,529
Trying to get a break
in this goddamn country.
1263
01:21:04,529 --> 01:21:07,032
Everybody's somebody's son,
someone's nephew.
1264
01:21:07,032 --> 01:21:08,366
I don't think that's true.
1265
01:21:09,242 --> 01:21:13,204
Albert Finney, Terrence Stamp,
Brian's boys.
1266
01:21:13,204 --> 01:21:15,206
They're all just working class lads.
1267
01:21:15,206 --> 01:21:16,457
It's always about them.
1268
01:21:16,457 --> 01:21:18,794
But it didn't happen for them overnight.
1269
01:21:19,044 --> 01:21:19,961
These things take time.
1270
01:21:21,171 --> 01:21:23,673
Yeah, sure. Hey, Lonnie...
1271
01:21:25,926 --> 01:21:28,261
Well, if you're such a talented actor,
1272
01:21:28,845 --> 01:21:33,850
getting your big break won't be a problem
for the best manager in the business.
1273
01:21:33,850 --> 01:21:34,684
Yeah.
1274
01:21:35,601 --> 01:21:37,145
- Mummy, while you're here.
- Yes.
1275
01:21:37,145 --> 01:21:39,105
I want to take you down to the studio
to see the boys.
1276
01:21:39,105 --> 01:21:40,231
I'd love that.
1277
01:21:40,231 --> 01:21:42,108
- They'd love to see you.
- How are they?
1278
01:21:42,108 --> 01:21:45,028
They're good. They haven't changed at all.
1279
01:21:51,034 --> 01:21:52,702
Look after my son, Lonnie.
1280
01:21:57,958 --> 01:21:58,834
Please.
1281
01:22:21,481 --> 01:22:23,483
That's very nice.
Where'd you get that?
1282
01:22:29,072 --> 01:22:30,490
That's Ringo's nose. Amazing.
1283
01:22:31,950 --> 01:22:33,243
The gold nose.
1284
01:22:33,576 --> 01:22:35,787
All right, John, smile for us.
1285
01:22:35,787 --> 01:22:37,080
Hold on.
Are you in it?
1286
01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:38,539
Hold on. No, I'm not in it.
1287
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:41,793
On three. One, two.
1288
01:22:43,669 --> 01:22:44,880
I love that shirt.
1289
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:47,841
Not me. Not me.
1290
01:22:47,841 --> 01:22:49,926
Not you, not me.
1291
01:23:08,319 --> 01:23:10,571
My mistake.
I thought this was my office.
1292
01:23:10,571 --> 01:23:12,783
Sorry, I was just...
1293
01:23:12,783 --> 01:23:15,160
I just wanted to talk to you about this.
1294
01:23:15,701 --> 01:23:17,620
I know what that is, I dictated it.
1295
01:23:17,620 --> 01:23:21,249
Yes, well, your brother,
Mr Clive, that is,
1296
01:23:21,249 --> 01:23:24,544
asked me to ask you why you've got
a Mr John Tex Ellington
1297
01:23:24,544 --> 01:23:26,004
on a retainer of 50 pounds a week.
1298
01:23:26,004 --> 01:23:27,547
I beg your pardon?
1299
01:23:28,173 --> 01:23:29,632
Well, that's what Mr Clive said.
1300
01:23:29,632 --> 01:23:32,177
Well, he asked me to ask you
before he went out.
1301
01:23:32,177 --> 01:23:33,428
Well, stormed out, really.
1302
01:23:33,428 --> 01:23:34,595
Right.
1303
01:23:35,764 --> 01:23:37,473
Well, you can tell my brother
that I don't work for him,
1304
01:23:37,473 --> 01:23:39,559
and I don't have to explain anything.
1305
01:23:40,476 --> 01:23:41,102
Right.
1306
01:23:41,102 --> 01:23:42,854
I think he just wants to know
who we're dealing with.
1307
01:23:42,854 --> 01:23:44,647
- Who we are dealing with?
- Yes.
1308
01:23:44,647 --> 01:23:47,650
Whoever he thinkswe are dealing with is my concern,
1309
01:23:47,943 --> 01:23:49,444
just as I deal with everything else.
1310
01:23:49,444 --> 01:23:50,987
Perhaps you should
just speak to Mr Clive.
1311
01:23:50,987 --> 01:23:52,823
I have nothing to say to him.
1312
01:23:52,823 --> 01:23:54,282
I built this business.
1313
01:23:54,282 --> 01:23:57,953
If my brother has something to say to me,
he could say it to my bloody face.
1314
01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:27,440
The boys finish
The magnificent "Revolver" album
1315
01:24:27,440 --> 01:24:30,110
and the next day
we fly them to Germany.
1316
01:24:30,110 --> 01:24:31,361
It's too soon.
1317
01:24:31,903 --> 01:24:34,990
But Hamburg should be a lovely homecoming.
1318
01:24:34,990 --> 01:24:37,658
Of course, this time, they're famous.
1319
01:24:42,038 --> 01:24:43,164
But no time to dwell.
1320
01:24:43,164 --> 01:24:47,585
We're off to Japan, where
the looming typhoon is a warning sign.
1321
01:24:47,585 --> 01:24:50,171
We get death threats
before we even get to Tokyo.
1322
01:24:50,171 --> 01:24:51,256
It's their fault,
1323
01:24:51,256 --> 01:24:53,383
because they book us to play
in a shrine to Japan's war dead.
1324
01:24:53,383 --> 01:24:55,676
I mean that nationalists are furious.
1325
01:25:01,182 --> 01:25:04,435
Anyway, it's the Philippines next,
which is a wonderful country,
1326
01:25:04,435 --> 01:25:07,355
and 80,000 people booked tickets
to see the concert.
1327
01:25:07,355 --> 01:25:11,484
But I politely decline an invitation
to tea with Imelda Marcos,
1328
01:25:11,484 --> 01:25:14,279
the president's wife,
and all hell breaks loose.
1329
01:25:14,279 --> 01:25:17,573
I go on state TV to try to apologise,
but they drown me out with a horn.
1330
01:25:17,573 --> 01:25:19,075
"The Beatles have let us down."
1331
01:25:19,075 --> 01:25:21,953
"The Beatles have let us down"
is the chant at the airport.
1332
01:25:21,953 --> 01:25:24,330
The armed guards smash up our kit.
1333
01:25:24,330 --> 01:25:26,166
They grab the boys, they drag them away.
1334
01:25:26,166 --> 01:25:27,583
It's chaos, and it's terrifying.
1335
01:25:27,583 --> 01:25:29,753
What the hell have I done?
1336
01:25:43,558 --> 01:25:48,688
We're going back to America,
we all need a warm welcome.
1337
01:25:50,565 --> 01:25:52,108
That's not what we get.
1338
01:25:53,151 --> 01:25:58,323
John's interview with an English newspaper
barely raises an eyebrow back home.
1339
01:25:59,074 --> 01:26:01,827
But compare your popularity
to that of Jesus Christ,
1340
01:26:02,327 --> 01:26:06,289
and in America,
your records will be burnt.
1341
01:26:07,248 --> 01:26:10,335
Are you worried about
The Beatles coming to America?
1342
01:26:11,878 --> 01:26:13,296
I am worried, yes.
1343
01:26:13,296 --> 01:26:16,257
That's why I'll be keeping
a very close eye on security.
1344
01:26:17,592 --> 01:26:19,928
What is John Lennon's
reaction to all his criticism?
1345
01:26:22,347 --> 01:26:25,350
John personally is deeply upset.
1346
01:26:25,350 --> 01:26:28,103
Why isn't John here
to answer the questions himself?
1347
01:26:50,208 --> 01:26:51,251
Come on.
1348
01:26:51,667 --> 01:26:53,920
- They're going to crucify me.
- Well, that follows.
1349
01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:55,839
You did tell the papers
that you were bigger than Jesus.
1350
01:26:55,839 --> 01:26:57,048
That's a fucking metaphor.
1351
01:26:57,048 --> 01:26:59,050
Yeah, and so is crucifixion.
You'll be fine.
1352
01:26:59,050 --> 01:27:02,095
I promise. Just be yourself.
Everyone will love you.
1353
01:27:03,721 --> 01:27:05,056
It's got to stop, Eppy.
1354
01:27:05,056 --> 01:27:06,141
It will, after this.
1355
01:27:06,141 --> 01:27:10,436
No, not just this, all of this.
1356
01:27:11,521 --> 01:27:12,522
The touring.
1357
01:27:15,025 --> 01:27:16,567
George and I have been talking.
1358
01:27:21,489 --> 01:27:22,573
Well, we'll...
1359
01:27:23,324 --> 01:27:26,327
Well, we'll talk
after the press conference.
1360
01:27:27,245 --> 01:27:29,330
Right. Are you coming in?
1361
01:27:30,498 --> 01:27:33,251
Do you think that I would
let you out of my sight, John?
1362
01:27:34,294 --> 01:27:37,172
Well, come on, let's go.
1363
01:27:42,260 --> 01:27:44,512
I mean, if I'd have said television
was more popular than Jesus,
1364
01:27:44,512 --> 01:27:45,764
I might have got away with it.
1365
01:27:46,139 --> 01:27:49,725
Some teenagers
have repeated the statement:
1366
01:27:49,725 --> 01:27:52,687
"I like The Beatles
more than Jesus Christ."
1367
01:27:52,687 --> 01:27:54,355
What do you think about that?
1368
01:27:54,355 --> 01:27:57,525
Well, originally, I was pointed out
that fact in reference to England,
1369
01:27:57,525 --> 01:28:01,154
that we meant more to kids
than Jesus did, or religion.
1370
01:28:01,154 --> 01:28:04,532
At that time, I wasn't knocking it
or putting it down.
1371
01:28:04,532 --> 01:28:07,035
I was just saying it as a fact.
1372
01:28:07,618 --> 01:28:10,663
And it's true, especially
more for England than here.
1373
01:28:11,289 --> 01:28:14,167
Can we get a reaction
from the other three gentlemen?
1374
01:28:15,543 --> 01:28:21,257
Well, Christianity is declining
and everybody knows about that.
1375
01:28:21,257 --> 01:28:24,510
Now, listen, the thing is,
people ask us questions
1376
01:28:24,510 --> 01:28:26,721
and we can do
the whole show business bit
1377
01:28:26,721 --> 01:28:31,059
of answering very vague answers
and doing a very dishonest thing.
1378
01:28:31,935 --> 01:28:34,270
All we're trying to do is answer honestly.
1379
01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,482
And the thing is, if you want us
to answer like showbiz personalities,
1380
01:28:37,482 --> 01:28:38,524
then we'll do that.
1381
01:28:39,109 --> 01:28:41,987
But I think it's better for us
and better for everyone else
1382
01:28:41,987 --> 01:28:43,363
if we answer honestly.
1383
01:28:43,363 --> 01:28:46,282
Even though we might not
be right all the time.
1384
01:28:47,951 --> 01:28:50,328
The straighter we can say it.
You know what I mean?
1385
01:28:53,123 --> 01:28:55,792
KYE welcomes The Beatles
back to San Francisco
1386
01:28:55,792 --> 01:28:57,919
in a mammoth
Candlestick Park spectacular.
1387
01:28:57,919 --> 01:29:01,506
The date is Monday, August 29th,
and the place is Candlestick Park.
1388
01:29:01,506 --> 01:29:03,341
You'll see better.
You'll hear better, too.
1389
01:29:03,341 --> 01:29:05,051
Hey, what should I wear tonight?
1390
01:29:06,011 --> 01:29:07,678
I didn't bring anything special.
1391
01:29:09,180 --> 01:29:11,767
I don't really do formal for concerts.
1392
01:29:12,100 --> 01:29:14,477
There's a dress code
for Candlestick Park?
1393
01:29:14,477 --> 01:29:15,812
I'm not sure we're going.
1394
01:29:17,522 --> 01:29:18,648
Why? What's wrong?
1395
01:29:23,611 --> 01:29:24,737
It's not important.
1396
01:29:25,488 --> 01:29:26,907
Seems to be.
1397
01:29:30,701 --> 01:29:31,828
So tell me.
1398
01:29:33,038 --> 01:29:34,289
They want to stop touring.
1399
01:29:34,622 --> 01:29:35,456
Who?
1400
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:37,959
The Beatles?
1401
01:29:40,503 --> 01:29:42,130
They're just kidding you around.
1402
01:29:42,130 --> 01:29:44,465
Come on.
You take everything so seriously.
1403
01:29:48,887 --> 01:29:49,637
What?
1404
01:29:51,973 --> 01:29:54,100
You're making too much of this.
1405
01:30:00,106 --> 01:30:01,191
We should have dinner.
1406
01:30:01,191 --> 01:30:03,109
I'm meeting Nat downstairs.
1407
01:30:04,861 --> 01:30:06,446
I'll get room service.
1408
01:30:07,989 --> 01:30:08,739
Fine.
1409
01:30:12,035 --> 01:30:15,163
Look, if they are serious,
what's worrying you? Money?
1410
01:30:15,163 --> 01:30:16,539
- It's not important.
- Not important?
1411
01:30:16,539 --> 01:30:17,540
Well, to you, maybe.
1412
01:30:17,540 --> 01:30:18,875
Hey, that's not fair.
1413
01:30:21,169 --> 01:30:22,796
Well, I care about you.
1414
01:30:36,226 --> 01:30:37,477
Eat up. It's good.
1415
01:30:43,483 --> 01:30:46,361
Brian, you look like shit.
Should I be worried?
1416
01:30:46,361 --> 01:30:48,154
If I said no, you'd worry anyway.
1417
01:30:48,488 --> 01:30:50,866
So sue me. I'm a worrier.
1418
01:30:51,324 --> 01:30:53,159
And you should eat something
before the show.
1419
01:30:53,159 --> 01:30:55,036
It's going to be a hell of a finale.
1420
01:30:56,454 --> 01:30:57,205
What?
1421
01:30:58,123 --> 01:31:00,876
Who said anything about a finale?
What's wrong with you?
1422
01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:06,547
The boys don't want to tour anymore.
1423
01:31:08,049 --> 01:31:09,550
They're exhausted.
1424
01:31:09,550 --> 01:31:11,887
Can't hear the music over the screaming.
1425
01:31:12,262 --> 01:31:13,805
So what, you want a band with no fans?
1426
01:31:13,805 --> 01:31:16,850
No, I want a band that doesn't have
to leave a stadium in an armoured car.
1427
01:31:16,850 --> 01:31:18,309
It's too much, Nat.
1428
01:31:18,309 --> 01:31:19,895
They're dying as musicians.
They keep telling me.
1429
01:31:19,895 --> 01:31:21,479
You should eat with that.
1430
01:31:21,938 --> 01:31:24,816
They can't say anything
without anyone losing their minds.
1431
01:31:25,108 --> 01:31:28,069
And they want to talk about politics,
civil rights, peace.
1432
01:31:28,361 --> 01:31:29,780
The press misquotes them,
so they can't be themselves.
1433
01:31:29,780 --> 01:31:31,156
And if you can't be yourself...
1434
01:31:31,156 --> 01:31:32,365
Well, what about you?
1435
01:31:33,658 --> 01:31:35,618
Huh? Where are you in all this?
1436
01:31:35,618 --> 01:31:38,038
What are you going to do without them?
Hell, what am I going to do?
1437
01:31:38,038 --> 01:31:39,580
I have lots of other things.
1438
01:31:39,580 --> 01:31:40,999
I mean, other acts.
1439
01:31:41,666 --> 01:31:43,251
I've got the Saville Theatre now.
1440
01:31:43,919 --> 01:31:45,837
Cream. The Who.
They're doing nights.
1441
01:31:45,837 --> 01:31:47,630
Four Tops.
We're bringing the Four Tops over.
1442
01:31:47,630 --> 01:31:48,757
That's going to be fun.
1443
01:31:49,132 --> 01:31:51,176
I'm producing a James Baldwin play.
1444
01:31:51,176 --> 01:31:53,929
I want to direct, maybe even act.
1445
01:31:53,929 --> 01:31:56,932
And will he be co-starring
in that with you?
1446
01:31:58,224 --> 01:31:59,559
So you know Tex is here.
1447
01:31:59,559 --> 01:32:02,395
Lucky guess.
I was hoping I was wrong.
1448
01:32:02,395 --> 01:32:03,396
He loves me.
1449
01:32:05,731 --> 01:32:07,067
Oh, God. Brian.
1450
01:32:09,903 --> 01:32:10,779
Brian.
1451
01:32:13,364 --> 01:32:15,408
All right, maybe he does love you.
1452
01:32:16,159 --> 01:32:18,661
But his heart would keep your beer cold.
1453
01:32:21,790 --> 01:32:24,667
No, no.
You sound like a Raymond Chandler novel.
1454
01:32:28,046 --> 01:32:30,673
Come upstairs and have a drink with him.
You'll see.
1455
01:32:33,426 --> 01:32:35,178
And be polite.
1456
01:32:35,178 --> 01:32:36,304
For me.
1457
01:32:36,596 --> 01:32:38,681
If you eat something for me.
1458
01:32:52,320 --> 01:32:54,155
There. I've eaten.
1459
01:32:55,448 --> 01:32:56,574
Tex?
1460
01:32:58,493 --> 01:33:00,411
Tex, I've brought Nat up for a drink.
1461
01:33:03,874 --> 01:33:04,750
Tex?
1462
01:33:05,541 --> 01:33:06,542
Hello?
1463
01:33:10,505 --> 01:33:12,382
He must have popped out for a minute.
1464
01:33:12,715 --> 01:33:13,967
Oh, no.
1465
01:33:18,721 --> 01:33:19,765
What are you looking for?
1466
01:33:19,765 --> 01:33:21,141
My briefcase.
1467
01:33:21,641 --> 01:33:24,102
I've got your new contract in it.
1468
01:33:24,102 --> 01:33:26,229
We got to go soon.
Let's just do it after.
1469
01:33:26,229 --> 01:33:28,023
No, I want to get it sorted.
1470
01:33:28,023 --> 01:33:29,232
Where'd you leave it then?
1471
01:33:29,232 --> 01:33:30,608
It was on the piano.
1472
01:33:38,116 --> 01:33:39,325
Son of a bitch.
1473
01:33:39,325 --> 01:33:40,368
Don't even think.
1474
01:33:40,368 --> 01:33:41,452
Son of a bitch.
1475
01:33:43,454 --> 01:33:44,497
What else is in the case?
1476
01:33:44,497 --> 01:33:48,126
Just some papers, contracts.
Some cash.
1477
01:33:48,584 --> 01:33:49,961
Cash? How much?
1478
01:33:51,421 --> 01:33:52,297
Brian, how much?
1479
01:33:52,297 --> 01:33:53,673
$20,000.
1480
01:33:54,841 --> 01:34:00,388
You had $20,000 in a briefcase in cash?
1481
01:34:02,598 --> 01:34:03,516
I'm sorry, boychik,
1482
01:34:03,516 --> 01:34:05,811
you are the dumbest
smart person I ever met.
1483
01:34:08,021 --> 01:34:09,647
Are there any pills in there?
1484
01:34:09,647 --> 01:34:10,941
It's nothing.
1485
01:34:10,941 --> 01:34:12,984
It's not nothing.
They can jail you for that.
1486
01:34:12,984 --> 01:34:13,777
You're overreacting.
1487
01:34:13,777 --> 01:34:14,986
Brian, wake up.
1488
01:34:14,986 --> 01:34:17,363
He could blackmail you
with what's in there.
1489
01:34:18,573 --> 01:34:19,324
Oh, God.
1490
01:34:20,408 --> 01:34:22,618
Oh, no, no. Not again.
1491
01:34:24,037 --> 01:34:26,664
My family.
My family mustn't know that.
1492
01:34:26,664 --> 01:34:28,249
It will kill them.
The boys.
1493
01:34:28,249 --> 01:34:30,335
The boys mustn't find out.
The boys mustn't find out.
1494
01:34:30,335 --> 01:34:32,087
They won't.
Just breathe. Relax.
1495
01:34:32,087 --> 01:34:33,588
I will handle this.
1496
01:34:33,588 --> 01:34:35,506
I know exactly the right people to call.
1497
01:34:35,506 --> 01:34:37,717
We will find that fucking piece of shit.
Don't you worry.
1498
01:34:37,717 --> 01:34:38,760
No. No. No.
1499
01:34:38,760 --> 01:34:40,511
I can't promise
he'll look too pretty after we do,
1500
01:34:40,511 --> 01:34:41,387
but we'll get him.
1501
01:34:41,387 --> 01:34:42,638
Put the phone down, Nat.
1502
01:34:43,056 --> 01:34:46,309
It's my fault.
I didn't pay him enough attention.
1503
01:34:46,684 --> 01:34:49,187
I didn't pay him enough attention.
I didn't pay him enough attention.
1504
01:34:49,187 --> 01:34:51,106
I'm always thinking about work, the boys.
1505
01:34:51,106 --> 01:34:52,273
Brian, it's not your fault.
1506
01:34:52,273 --> 01:34:54,025
But he deserves the money,
he earned it.
1507
01:34:54,025 --> 01:34:56,444
Earned?
Are you hearing yourself. He played you.
1508
01:34:56,444 --> 01:34:59,823
How could he love me?
What's to love? I'm useless.
1509
01:34:59,823 --> 01:35:01,074
Brian, stop it!
1510
01:35:01,407 --> 01:35:03,326
I don't know what to do, Nat.
1511
01:35:03,326 --> 01:35:06,204
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do.
1512
01:35:06,204 --> 01:35:07,956
I always know what to do.
1513
01:35:07,956 --> 01:35:11,542
It's all right. You need a break.
1514
01:35:11,542 --> 01:35:13,378
You just need a break.
1515
01:35:13,378 --> 01:35:17,048
Stop. Just breathe.
1516
01:35:19,217 --> 01:35:20,343
Shit!
1517
01:35:21,845 --> 01:35:22,804
Yeah?
1518
01:35:27,934 --> 01:35:29,102
The car is here.
1519
01:35:29,602 --> 01:35:30,979
He's not coming down.
1520
01:35:37,110 --> 01:35:39,946
I'm going to get you home, Brian.
1521
01:35:43,533 --> 01:35:46,077
I'm here. I got you.
1522
01:35:49,247 --> 01:35:56,712
Carbitral, Nembutal, Seconal,
Preludin, Benzedrine, Drinamyl.
1523
01:35:58,298 --> 01:36:02,177
It's a very dangerous cocktail
of barbiturates and amphetamines.
1524
01:36:02,177 --> 01:36:04,930
I'm... tired, that's all.
1525
01:36:06,056 --> 01:36:08,724
You've been putting your body
under immense strain.
1526
01:36:08,724 --> 01:36:10,852
I'd wager for some time now.
1527
01:36:10,852 --> 01:36:13,438
You need a prolonged period of rest.
1528
01:36:16,524 --> 01:36:19,527
When can I get back to work?
I have an album launch party on the 28th.
1529
01:36:22,322 --> 01:36:24,615
You're free to leave whenever you choose,
1530
01:36:26,284 --> 01:36:28,536
but I'd advise you to stay.
1531
01:36:31,164 --> 01:36:32,415
How are you feeling?
1532
01:36:32,748 --> 01:36:34,084
Much better, Mummy.
1533
01:36:34,918 --> 01:36:36,795
It's very nice to have you home.
1534
01:36:37,670 --> 01:36:39,464
Is there something we didn't do?
1535
01:36:43,551 --> 01:36:44,719
How do you mean?
1536
01:36:45,053 --> 01:36:47,472
Is there something
we didn't give you,
1537
01:36:48,348 --> 01:36:49,224
Brian?
1538
01:36:50,767 --> 01:36:51,935
No, Daddy.
1539
01:37:20,463 --> 01:37:21,714
Mr Brian,
1540
01:37:23,049 --> 01:37:25,260
The Bottles
are here to see you.
1541
01:37:25,260 --> 01:37:27,220
Hey. Oh, come on.
1542
01:37:27,220 --> 01:37:28,471
He's alive.
1543
01:37:28,471 --> 01:37:29,514
Hello, boys.
1544
01:37:29,973 --> 01:37:31,682
John, so good to see you.
1545
01:37:31,682 --> 01:37:32,433
Hello.
1546
01:37:32,433 --> 01:37:34,435
Oh, no, you've succumbed
to the moustache as well.
1547
01:37:34,435 --> 01:37:36,271
Oh, I know.
I quite like it, though.
1548
01:37:36,271 --> 01:37:38,314
George, you look well. How are you?
1549
01:37:38,774 --> 01:37:40,942
- Mr Starr.
- Mr Epstein.
1550
01:37:40,942 --> 01:37:43,319
- Looking splendid as usual.
- Thanks.
1551
01:37:46,572 --> 01:37:47,991
So, how are you?
1552
01:37:48,658 --> 01:37:50,535
I'm fine, thank you.
1553
01:37:50,535 --> 01:37:52,037
And I have a proposal.
1554
01:37:52,037 --> 01:37:53,746
Oh, a proposal.
1555
01:37:53,746 --> 01:37:55,373
Brian, I do.
1556
01:37:55,373 --> 01:37:56,291
Finally.
1557
01:37:57,500 --> 01:37:58,584
It's for a film.
1558
01:37:58,584 --> 01:38:01,546
- I think I'll be leaving...
- No, no, George.
1559
01:38:01,546 --> 01:38:03,256
You don't have to act this time.
I promise.
1560
01:38:03,256 --> 01:38:05,258
No, no, I'd like to do the acting.
1561
01:38:05,258 --> 01:38:08,303
Giorgio, Giorgio,
wherefore art thou Giorgio?
1562
01:38:08,887 --> 01:38:11,264
You're not turning us into cartoons,
are you, Eppy?
1563
01:38:11,264 --> 01:38:13,433
I'd be quite prepared
for that eventuality.
1564
01:38:13,433 --> 01:38:16,727
Well, just take a look.
I think you'll like it. I like it.
1565
01:38:16,727 --> 01:38:17,771
I do like it.
1566
01:38:18,146 --> 01:38:19,105
Yeah, I really like it.
1567
01:38:19,105 --> 01:38:20,523
It's like my long-lost dad.
1568
01:38:22,984 --> 01:38:24,735
Oh, and there's something else.
1569
01:38:25,695 --> 01:38:27,405
I've been talking to the BBC.
1570
01:38:27,405 --> 01:38:32,577
They're going to do the first ever live
satellite broadcast to a global audience.
1571
01:38:32,869 --> 01:38:35,538
400 million people.
1572
01:38:35,831 --> 01:38:37,207
- Not bad.
- Not bad.
1573
01:38:37,916 --> 01:38:39,000
And, er...
1574
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,212
Guess who they've chosen
to represent Great Britain?
1575
01:38:42,712 --> 01:38:44,172
James Bond.
1576
01:38:47,258 --> 01:38:49,510
I think you should write
a new song for it.
1577
01:38:49,970 --> 01:38:52,055
What do you think we've been
doing the past six months?
1578
01:38:52,055 --> 01:38:53,098
Macramé?
1579
01:38:53,098 --> 01:38:56,226
Hey, Paul Macrame.
That's good.
1580
01:38:56,226 --> 01:38:57,143
I'm loving that.
1581
01:38:57,143 --> 01:38:59,270
Well, just that, for a global audience,
1582
01:38:59,270 --> 01:39:01,106
I think we need
something simple,
1583
01:39:01,106 --> 01:39:02,232
profound.
1584
01:39:03,399 --> 01:39:06,486
What does the world
need to hear right now?
1585
01:39:06,862 --> 01:39:08,071
Oh...
1586
01:39:11,574 --> 01:39:13,034
Hello, World?
1587
01:39:13,034 --> 01:39:14,160
Stop it!
1588
01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:24,921
Hello?
1589
01:39:27,632 --> 01:39:28,633
Mummy?
1590
01:39:31,219 --> 01:39:38,101
We are here today to accompany
Hayim Ben Isaac Harry Epstein
1591
01:39:38,101 --> 01:39:39,644
to the next world.
1592
01:39:40,771 --> 01:39:44,149
I now ask the family
to come forward for kriah.
1593
01:40:10,550 --> 01:40:13,428
He must have been so disappointed in me.
1594
01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:16,932
He was so proud of you.
1595
01:40:16,932 --> 01:40:18,016
Really?
1596
01:40:18,016 --> 01:40:19,475
Yes, really.
1597
01:40:21,269 --> 01:40:22,562
You should have heard him.
1598
01:40:23,146 --> 01:40:24,605
"Look at my son.
1599
01:40:25,273 --> 01:40:28,026
Look what he's achieved,
a boy from Liverpool."
1600
01:40:29,277 --> 01:40:30,695
He told anyone who would listen.
1601
01:40:30,695 --> 01:40:31,947
But he never told me.
1602
01:40:34,282 --> 01:40:36,201
Because he didn't know how.
1603
01:40:39,370 --> 01:40:42,874
Fathers and sons, it's always the same.
1604
01:40:42,874 --> 01:40:44,709
Why was he always checking up on me?
1605
01:40:45,460 --> 01:40:46,502
He...
1606
01:40:47,628 --> 01:40:51,341
He spent his whole life avoiding trouble,
1607
01:40:51,341 --> 01:40:54,010
and you went looking for it.
1608
01:40:55,095 --> 01:40:58,181
There we all were
keeping our heads down,
1609
01:40:58,181 --> 01:40:59,766
and you...
1610
01:41:01,059 --> 01:41:03,103
you reached for the stars.
1611
01:41:10,151 --> 01:41:11,862
Will you be all right on your own
for a couple of weeks?
1612
01:41:11,862 --> 01:41:12,946
I'll be fine.
1613
01:41:13,613 --> 01:41:15,115
I see you down in London.
1614
01:41:15,115 --> 01:41:16,950
Be nice to be close to each other.
1615
01:41:16,950 --> 01:41:18,701
I found you the perfect flat.
1616
01:41:19,828 --> 01:41:22,789
Meetings to arrange?
Nothing changes, Brian.
1617
01:41:26,877 --> 01:41:30,797
You promise me that
you're looking after yourself.
1618
01:41:30,797 --> 01:41:32,841
You don't have to worry about me.
1619
01:41:32,841 --> 01:41:35,051
That's like asking me not to breathe.
1620
01:41:35,426 --> 01:41:36,636
I just...
1621
01:41:37,303 --> 01:41:39,222
I don't want you to be alone.
1622
01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:41,432
Alone is a stone.
1623
01:41:57,407 --> 01:42:01,577
Mr Brian, sir,
I didn't expect you back so soon.
1624
01:42:04,122 --> 01:42:05,874
Can I get you anything, sir?
1625
01:42:06,750 --> 01:42:08,960
Your mother, how's she doing?
1626
01:42:09,795 --> 01:42:13,006
Well, she's lost the love of her life.
1627
01:42:15,716 --> 01:42:16,968
After the funeral,
1628
01:42:20,096 --> 01:42:26,061
I was watching my brother playing
with my niece, Joanne, and...
1629
01:42:30,023 --> 01:42:31,066
Lonnie,
1630
01:42:32,567 --> 01:42:36,446
do you and Peter ever wish
that you could have a family?
1631
01:42:39,950 --> 01:42:42,368
Sure, I think about it,
1632
01:42:43,954 --> 01:42:46,832
but I try to be grateful for what I have.
1633
01:42:46,832 --> 01:42:50,001
A man who loves me,
who I can rely on.
1634
01:42:50,543 --> 01:42:53,338
Yes.
1635
01:42:55,506 --> 01:42:58,468
It's just that there is
something so special about having family.
1636
01:42:58,468 --> 01:42:59,845
You have one.
1637
01:43:00,887 --> 01:43:03,514
It's just a different kind of family.
1638
01:43:10,438 --> 01:43:12,523
Should I take your bag, sir?
1639
01:43:13,942 --> 01:43:15,944
Oh yes. Thank you.
1640
01:43:56,234 --> 01:43:58,028
You finally decided to show, then?
1641
01:43:58,319 --> 01:43:59,988
I wouldn't miss it for the world.
1642
01:44:00,405 --> 01:44:02,157
It is for the world.
1643
01:44:04,034 --> 01:44:06,536
I'm ready for my close-up, Mr DeMartin.
1644
01:44:06,536 --> 01:44:07,788
Ah, er...
1645
01:44:07,788 --> 01:44:10,373
In that case, I'll leave you to it.
1646
01:44:12,250 --> 01:44:13,251
Break a leg, boys.
1647
01:44:15,545 --> 01:44:16,587
Eppy.
1648
01:44:16,587 --> 01:44:17,338
Yes.
1649
01:44:17,964 --> 01:44:22,385
Don't think you're going anywhere
without one of these.
1650
01:44:23,011 --> 01:44:25,430
Come on. That's it. Come on.
1651
01:44:25,430 --> 01:44:27,015
BRIAN [Chuckling]: All right.
1652
01:44:32,896 --> 01:44:34,355
You're a hard act to follow.
1653
01:44:36,024 --> 01:44:38,026
No, you are.
1654
01:44:40,570 --> 01:44:41,362
All right.
1655
01:44:43,031 --> 01:44:44,950
Well, okay.
1656
01:44:46,117 --> 01:44:47,077
Back to it.
1657
01:44:47,077 --> 01:44:48,829
- Don't go too far, Brian.
- I won't.
1658
01:44:48,829 --> 01:44:49,913
Not too far, Brian.
1659
01:44:49,913 --> 01:44:51,289
This next one's for you.
1660
01:44:52,123 --> 01:44:54,793
Mr Brian, there's Nat on the phone.
1661
01:44:56,627 --> 01:44:58,338
Nat? Nat, you're watching?
1662
01:45:00,882 --> 01:45:01,758
We did it.
1663
01:45:03,509 --> 01:45:05,011
Queenie, yes, I'm very well, thank you.
1664
01:45:05,011 --> 01:45:06,012
Yes, I'm good.
1665
01:45:06,805 --> 01:45:08,514
Yes, I'll hand you over now.
1666
01:45:09,307 --> 01:45:10,308
Okay. Yeah.
1667
01:45:12,518 --> 01:45:14,687
Mummy, about to go live.
1668
01:45:15,688 --> 01:45:16,647
Are you watching?
1669
01:45:17,565 --> 01:45:19,317
Good. That's good.
1670
01:45:22,570 --> 01:45:23,696
I know you're proud.
1671
01:45:25,782 --> 01:45:26,950
Love you, too.
1672
01:45:27,658 --> 01:45:29,828
All right, talk later. Bye.
1673
01:45:33,206 --> 01:45:34,374
All set?
1674
01:45:34,374 --> 01:45:35,375
We're good to go.
1675
01:45:35,792 --> 01:45:37,002
Should we give it a go?
1676
01:45:39,295 --> 01:45:46,219
All right, chaps, we are live
to the world in five, four, three.
1677
01:45:53,476 --> 01:45:54,310
All around the world,
1678
01:45:54,310 --> 01:45:58,064
you're about to participate with millions
of viewers in a moment of history.
1679
01:46:00,150 --> 01:46:03,987
By means of 4 satellites
23,000 miles above the Earth,
1680
01:46:03,987 --> 01:46:07,991
we'll be joining in the first live
round-the-world telecast.
1681
01:46:10,576 --> 01:46:11,787
In 14 countries,
1682
01:46:11,787 --> 01:46:15,123
television crews
are ready to send live pictures
1683
01:46:15,123 --> 01:46:18,334
to the 24 countries
that will receive this programme.
1684
01:46:20,378 --> 01:46:23,048
Like you, people in town and country
1685
01:46:23,048 --> 01:46:25,967
are sitting down
in front of their television sets.
1686
01:46:29,012 --> 01:46:32,432
It's a climax to all man's
history of communication.
1687
01:47:49,175 --> 01:47:50,218
Just over a month ago,
1688
01:47:50,218 --> 01:47:53,013
he was upset
by the sudden death of his father.
1689
01:47:53,930 --> 01:47:55,640
Friends have been trying to persuade him
1690
01:47:55,640 --> 01:47:58,351
in the last few days
to take a long holiday,
1691
01:47:58,351 --> 01:48:02,522
but only yesterday he told one of them,
I feel on top of the world.
