A Hard Day’s Night
June 17, Museum of Modern Art, 11 W. 53rd St. (betw. 5th & 6th Aves.), 212-708-9400; 4:30, $TBD.
MoMA’s “Yanks in Britain” film festival somewhat incongruously opens with four Brits in Britain in Richard Lester’s 1964 mockumentary A Hard Day’s Night.We’re not complaining. Shot at the height of their popularity, the guys in The Beatles are playful and young and cute as fuck.This was before John got all into peace and Paul became a redheaded prune.
Bottom Line: Madcap, musical, stop-action Beatlemania.
