There should be an Oscar for film restorers! All of these super-dedicated people deserve recognition for the arduous task of reclaiming this film for future generations. Three cheers! ( I hope the same dedication and passion of restoration is given to A Hard Day's Night. Directed by Lester with a delightful script by Alun Owen, it captured the insouciance of the Fab Four and their timeless music.)

Good to hear these guys are cleaning the window and not rearranging the furniture.

At 10:20, that guy was recalling how he was “dragged off to Shea Stadium” to see the Beatles. Man, how many of us would have liked, no loved, to have been “dragged off” to see the Beatles.

My parents took us on a vacation to England in early August 1964. While there, we drove up to Liverpool from London and saw the movie A Hard Day's Night there, about 2 weeks before it was released in the United States. It was so cool. The audience didn't scream like Americans did. Just the normal laughter and Applause.

@@n0tyham - It's not just tourism that's improved northern cities but the UK has generally greatly improved since then. The UK was down the toilet by 1964 as we'd lost the Empire and were wiped out in WW2. It wasn't until the 80s that the country started looking 1st world again. I grew up in Leeds in the 1970s and most of the shops in the city were boarded up. All the old factories were falling down and long closed. There was a lot of poverty and young men turned to football violence as an outlet, so I grew up not even being able to go to games as every game had a riot after. Looking back it was like when I travel to a developing nation today. Not a third world one but somewhere inbetween like Russia. It wasn't until I went on a school trip to Austria that I realised what a shithole the UK was. Everything was clean and nice and lot of modern new buildings as well as everything pained and not falling down, also the people were clean and smart and articulate. Leeds was dirty and violent and people getting a glass shoved in their face in a bar fight was pretty common. They actually made all pint glasses so they shatter and clubs used plastic to stop it. Leeds is unrecognisable now they finally knocked down the factories and built nice new buildings. The cities are still full of drunken fighting every night though. But that's just British working-class culture. Idiots getting drunk, streaming and fighting is something you'll see in every single town and city. The lockdown has made walking in a city on a night possible which it wasn't before. Sorry, lockdown waffling.

People who do this type of work are among the special group people who do thankless work that the rest of us benefit from but never get praise or recognition for doing it. If I ruled the world these people would be recognised as the real heroes in our society rather than the social media stars. I might be slightly biased though because my father sat next to John Lennon when he was at school.

thank you for all your hard work. this is probably gonna sound odd, but i remember when they did an overhaul of the statue of liberty (many years ago). watching them work from a distance, i couldn't help but wonder if the workers knew how much their work meant to everyone else. then i saw a documentary, and they were interviewed... they were as awed by what they were doing, as i hoped they would be. i am just as satisfied with you. so kudos to you too. and again, thank you

Such important history, this makes me feel so lucky to have been around when the Beatles found fame and in my humble opinion led a sea change in society. Thank you, thank you to these experts for their devotion to their work.

i've always wanted to see new films that are based in the past (say the 80s for example) shot with film to make it more authentic and nostalgic, and i already knew using physical film was expensive and now i can see exactly why- would be very hard to find a good team to process it i can see that the best way to achieve the idea would be to process all the film after to digital and then edit the film rather than doing it all physically to the film itself- would be cool to see a square-ratio movie with old-fashioned film (always thought that Bohemian Rhapsody movie would've looked great with this idea in the Live Aid recreation)

Dont get me wrong, i'm not knocking the Beatles, I'm here because of them, they were in their early 20's and likely had little input into the writing.

I think it was very rare that a Beatle record was played on American radio that early in 1963. The records were released on different labels (not Capitol) and they didn’t sell well at all. You might have heard one of the earliest ones on played on the air. I just looked it up, PPM was the first Beatle record played on US radio in February 1963, out of Chicago. Cool that you remember hearing it months before they arrived here.

I have a dvd from 1998 and it looks great. AMC said they restored it in the 2000. I don’t know why this movie has so many problems keeping it clean. I saw it on tv almost every year in the 80’s .

I'm no expert, but there are a few inconsistencies in this film which should probably have been explained at some point. "Help" was shot on Eastmancolor, which was a single strip color negative process but when they are checking the film for damage, there are obviously three film strips, which presumably would be Technicolor, so not "Help". Also, it seems that in 2007, the first part of the process was a chemical restoration and this was followed by a digital scan and restoration. The equipment they are using is labeled "2K" so they obviously weren't trying to get to UHD standard, which I don't think even existed in 2007. From the comments below, it has been digitally restored again since then, although I can't find any information to suggest it has been scanned above 2K although 35mm film can certainly support at least a 4K scan. Also surprising that Dick Lester wasn't involved in the restoration. I would be curious to know why.

It's good that this is on YT, but, seeing as how this is all about restoring picture quality, there's no excuse for this being posted at only 360p. This should be at least at 720p, which is the lower end of HD. Preferably 1080p.

Too bad the deleted scenes cant be brought back

Here is a question I hope someone can answer: Why do we see A HARD DAY'S NIGHT pop up with some regularity, but not HELP! or YELLOW SUBMARINE? Can anyone tell me?

So, the guy at min 10:25 says he's been a Beatles fan since he was a kid. Then goes on to say how great it is to be working on "One of the TWO movies they made". Guess what? The Beatles made 5 MOVIES in their career: 1) Hard Days Night 2) Help 3) Magical Mystery Tour 4) Yellow Submarine 5) Let it Be Any true Beatles fan would know this.

Whew this is ancient

they would do even better with advanced digital restoration techniques of today (2022). some of the equipmente they were using is outdated now, and computers and restoration softwares are more advanced since this documentary was done.

The picture on my laptop is super really clear.

Tickertape machine scene went,I meant.

So why can't the restored film be transferred to new film? Can't a new Master be made?

It is nice that someone have enough time to spend on such job. But, with scratches or without them, those are The Beatles in full greatness. Scratches are absolutely meaningless and unimportant. It is just like listening their music from old scratched LP and from a million time filtered and remastered digital source. Scratches are a mark of that era, and I'm not bothered with them at all. Maybe it's just me, but...

So did they use a master print (if there was one) or just some over used copy? The general problem with Help! is the complimentary cast, way too much of them on screen.
