Beatles (2014 Norwegian film)

Based on Lars Saabye Christensen's 1984 book, a huge success in Norway, it's another coming-of-age story! Why does teenage Beatles fandom dovetail so well with this genre? We look at the use of the music in the film, which secured the rights to use a few Beatles songs, as well as how successfully it marries up the four teenage boy characters with their respective Beatles.You can rent the film cheaply on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlOJYlREuIEThe book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatles_(novel)Watch The Bonfire of the Vanities: https://share.google/2KvlWLlYJaRyxTi1DMario Puzo's The Godfather novel: https://share.google/25bfmbahtQ6IksLbAThe Norwegian Wood film: https://share.google/olHb9tcPqN3cYKKtQMeet the Beatles Films PodcastThe Beatles Films Podcast is hosted by Matt Looker and Ed Williamson.
