The Beatles’ “Help!” out on Blu-ray now

The Beatles’ second movie “Help!” debuted on Blu-ray this week. The 1965 movie, directed by Richard Lester, has been digitally restored for this release and is accompanied by an hour of bonus features.

The best thing about this rather muddled movie is the excellent soundtrack, which features “Help!,” “You’re Going To Lose That Girl,” “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away,” “Ticket To Ride,” “I Need You,” “The Night Before,” and ‘Another Girl.” You might not find yourself watching the whole movie repeatedly, but the musical segments alone do make this a worthwhile purchase.

The following bonus features are included:

  • “The Beatles in Help!” – 30-minute documentary about the making of the film
  • “A Missing Scene” – film outtake featuring Wendy Richard
  • “The Restoration of Help!” – in-depth look at the restoration process
  • “Memories of Help!” – the cast and crew reminisce
  • 1965 theatrical trailers – two U.S. trailers and one Spanish trailer
  • 1965 U.S. Radio Spots (hidden in disc menus).

The booklet includes an introduction by the film’s director, Richard Lester, and an appreciation by Martin Scorsese.
