A comedy chronicling 24 hours in the lives of six teenagers from Maplewood, New Jersey, who descend on Manhattan the day The Beatles premiered on the "Ed Sullivan Show," February 8, 1964. Each has a personal agenda: Grace Corrigan is looking for her big break as a photographer; Rosie Petrofsky is the quintessential Beatles fan, and Janice Goldman and Tony Smerko, would do anything to see the performance end in disaster.

Robert Zemeckis made a good movie about the Beatles without the Beatles. Sure, this is mostly about Beatlemania, but it's also about their music, which just still sounds as beautiful as when I first heard it. But it's interesting to see how much they drove people crazy, and not just the girls we mostly hear screaming at their concerts.

I was going to label this film a calculated cashgrab targeting moms of the time who could reminisce about their younger years under Beatles posters at the movies, but then I read how it flopped. I Wanna Hold Your Hand has great scene choreography, pacing, and plenty of individual aspects worth highlighting (like the stunt performances by the female fans), but it's stretched too thin and foreshadows the problems I'll continue to have with Zemeckis and how he works with live actors as if they were animated characters. Incidentally, the ensemble cast here includes both the most beautiful (Susan Kendall Newman, Paul Newman's daughter) and the ugliest (Wendie Jo Sperber Bohdal) actresses of their time.

It’s crazy how one thing can make people so crazy that you can’t even look at them anymore. Robert Zemeckis made his first proper movie and I have to say it immediately got my attention. Not exactly the movie, but rather the Beatles’ music. It’s great, but it doesn’t make me go crazy like this. On the other hand, it was fun to watch the people during the whole Beatlemania, because what they did was often beyond the lines of common sense.
