One of the quirkier chapters in the Beatles story was the movie Magical Mystery Tour. It didn’t get great reviews when it came out in 1967, but maybe that was because the people who went to see it weren’t tripping like the Beatles were when they made the movie. Anyway, a documentary about the making of Magical Mystery Tour aired on PBS last week, and if you missed it, which I’m sure you did, now you can stream it. It’s actually pretty entertaining and really captures the era in which they made the movie. It's a quick 20 minutes, and it's worth a look. Enjoy. (You might have to click into "fullscreen" mode or it'll look squished.)
