The motion picture A Hard Day’s Night premieres in The Beatles’ hometown of Liverpool, with hundreds of thousands of fans lining the streets for a parade from the airport to the city center. The movie was shot in black and white with a budget of only £200,000 ($500.000) and took just seven weeks to complete. Reviews were mostly positive and the film went on to earn over eleven million dollars.

    Years ago I went on a date with a beautiful woman. We had been talking online for months but this was our first in person date. We went to a bar near my apartment. Afterwards, she was feeling a little buzzed, so I suggested we watch a movie before she drove home. Looking through my DVD collection she immediately chose this film. We had a wonderful night sharing our love of the Beatles.

    A year later, I recreated that first date. When we got back to the apartment we now shared. I asked her to put on this movie, which I had hidden an engagement ring in. It’s been 18 years and we’re still together and still loving the Beatles.
