February '64 to July '64

I continue to try and enjoy this as more of a historical document than a documentary. Still, I think there would've been ways to do both.

All this footage, all these interviews, and eight episodes of more than an hour in length each... and yet this is how they choose to present everything. I'm sorry, but I still feel it's a bit disappointing. There's a good deal of repetition in this episode, I think within the episode itself and by having chunks that felt reminiscent of the last episode. I guess I'm just holding out now for them to start covering the later years of The Beatles.

Best part of this (and a redeeming sequence) was when they covered the making of A Hard Day's Night (the film). Always fun seeing clips from that film, and I liked the Ringo anecdote about the stuff he improvised on his own (very Ringo of him).
