I do have quite an affection for help.

I don't know if I must ask it here, but can anybody explain the joke that Ringo is reading the Queen?
I've watched it recently, it's from the library. Till so far it's the only beatle movie I've seen. But I like it!!!

I was wondering the same thing Digna.  I was thinking they were making fun of him because mybe upper class people read it? I could be totally off on this just making a guess here.

I really have no idea what that means...

Queen is/was a magazine for the well off 'upper classes'. So it could be a reference to the class divide between them and someone who comes from a 'working class' background. Also Grandad had earlier mentioned 'sissies' and 'powdered gewgaws', meaning gay men. The word 'Queen' is a popular way to describe gay men in Briton.

AHDN is my all time favorite movie, Beatle one too.  I agree with the person starting this thread.  AHDN was the Beatles being "Beatles"...........

They actually used the transporter, PaulieBear. But since Star Trek had not been invented yet, Dick Lester was unable to show the transporter effect on screen.

No, they're MAGICAL! They can poof where they want when they want to. They just push Ringo's neb (nose) and POOF! They're gone.

My favorite part was, or one of them is when Paul is in the dressing room with everyone and he says
"...that this too too solid flesh would melt, ZAP"
I LOVE IT

I forgot that part of the movie, what did that mean? Sounds Shakespearean, was there some special relevance to the scene?


I love John,
I love Paul,
And George and Ringo,
I love them all!
