The inaugural Palace Touring: Music Film Festival 2019 heads to the Palace Cinema Paradiso next month (August 1-14), promising some of the best music films ever made. Check website for details and session times.
Director Ron Howard’s (Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, Willow) snapshot of the Beatles at the start of their ascendancy, The Beatles: Eight Days A Week covers the early touring years of the iconic band and shows what rocketed them to stardom. However, beyond the deep dive into Beatlemania, what really makes this film special is the beautifully restored 1966 Shea Stadium concert footage. As an added bonus the cinematic release of this documentary had a 4K restored The Beatles at Shea Stadium broadcast of the concert (originally by Ed Sullivan Productions) consisting of 11 songs. Given the 138 minute run time, this looks to be the version being screened here, and something not to be missed by Beatles fans.
We’ve got two double passes to the screening this Sunday, August 4 at 1:30pm at Palace Cinema Paradiso to giveaway.
