On July 29, 2965, the Beatles released their second film, Help! The action packed plot begins with Ringo wearing a sacrificial ring from the far East. It is from a cult named Kahili, and Ringo gets this ring stuck on his finger. Ringo seeks help from these mad scientists named Professor Foot and Algernon. So the Beatles are chased through the world as everybody tries to chase after them.

What They Have To Say About It!



George: It's difficult, you know, when four people all have to say lines one behind the other. And if one person forgets it, you've got to start again. And then the next person'd forget his lines and we'd did some scenes, the scenes that were in Buckingham Palace in "Help!"... We were doing that scene for days.


John: By then we were smoking marijuana for breakfast, at that period, and we were well into marijuana, and nobody could communicate with us because it was just four glazed eyes giggling all the time. I enjoyed filming it, you know, I'm sort of satisfied with, but not smugged about it, but it'll do. "Cause we're not capable enough actors to make it any better than that.


Paul: I think that was one of teh reasons for not learning the script. We'd just sort of show up stoned, and sort of smile a lot and hope we'd get through it.


Ringo: It was fabulous, of course the problem was we went to the Bahamas to do the hot scenes, and of sourse it was freezing. Of course, we had to ride around and run around in shirts and thin trousers and it was absolutely bloody cold. There's one scene in the film where Victor Spinetti, and whoever else is in that scene, and they're doing that curling, you know, with the big stones and you slide them, and one of them, of course, has a bomb in it. We find this out, so it's going to blow up so we have to run away. And Paul and I ran about seven miles. We just ran and ran so we could stop and have a joint and come back. And we were just off... we'd run to Switzerland.
