If you thought there couldn’t possibly be any more archival footage to memorialize Beatlemania Peter after Peter Jackson’s 3-part docuseries, Disney+ would like to have a word. The long-awaited Martin Scorsese-produced “Beatles ’64” is finally available to stream online.

But Beatles ’64, which premieres on Disney+ on Nov. 29, starts by pulling back: way back. Instead of Paul, John, George, and Ringo, we get John F. Kennedy, urging us to go to the moon because it is hard and descending the airplane steps in Dallas,

Before Taylor Swift and the cult of Swifties took over pop culture, The Beatles created a similar craze in 1964 with Beatlemania. Their appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show remains iconic (even Boygenius paid homage to it during their SNL appearance).

Martin Scorsese's Disney+ documentary offers a stark contrast to 2021's critically acclaimed Get Back showing the band at a different point in their career.

“Beatles ’64” leans into footage of the 14-day trip filmed by documentarians Albert and David Maysles, who left behind 11 hours of the Fab Four goofing around in New York’s Plaza hotel or traveling. It was restored by Park Road Post in New Zealand.

The new documentary follows the Fab Four's first three-week whirlwind tour of the United States in February 1964.

Goodfellas director Martin Scorsese appears pretty prominently throughout the new Beatles documentary on Disney+, Beatles '64 — but why?
