A Hard Day's Night

As the Beatles navigate their daily lives, they must balance their personal quirks and a live television broadcast, all while being closely watched by Paul McCartney's lively and observant grandfather.

The film chronicles a frantic 36 hours in the lives of the Beatles, culminating in a live television performance. The band members are pursued by both their enthusiastic fans and their demanding manager, who struggles to keep them in line. Just as the concert is about to begin, Ringo is unexpectedly arrested, leaving Paul's resourceful grandfather to lend a hand. Despite the chaos, the Fab Four deliver an energetic set, performing a dozen songs.
