“On February 7, 1964, The Beatles arrived in New York City to unprecedented excitement and hysteria,” reads the docufilm’s official logline. “From the instant they landed at Kennedy Airport, met by thousands of fans, Beatlemania swept New York and the entire country. Their thrilling debut performance on The Ed Sullivan Show captivated more than 73 million viewers, the most watched television event of its time. Beatles ’64 presents the spectacle, but also tells a more intimate behind the scenes story, capturing the camaraderie of John, Paul, George, and Ringo as they experienced unimaginable fame.”
The music documentary is directed by David Tedeschi. Producers include Martin Scorsese, and The Beatles members Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr alongside Margaret Bodde, Olivia Harrison, Sean Ono Lennon, Jonathan Clyde, and Mikaela Beardsley. It is executive produced by Jeff Jones and Rick Yorn.
The film is scheduled to make its debut starting on November 29.
