The Beatles: Revolution is on Channel 7 this evening. It started at 8:00 est.
In their classic song “Revolution,” the Beatles sang, “You say you want a
revolution, well you know, we all want to change the world.” Like no music
group before or since, the Fab Four did exactly that.
Archival footage of the band, newsreel clips and comments by celebrities
ranging from Bono to Salman Rushdie and Tim Allen to Christy Turlington
celebrate the Beatles' impact in this ABC Entertainment-VH1 co-production.
Bono feels the group's influence musically (he says, “the Beatles invented U2
in so many ways”) and culturally, saying they inspired a generation to feel
that “you could come from a little neighborhood and take over the world---or
[your] ideas could take over the world.”
120 minutes long.
