Jul 19th     
Yellow Submarine* (U)   
(Curzon Colchester - first visit!)                         

(GB 1968)
The Beatles travel to a faraway parallel land to rescue it from tyrannical killjoys.
50th anniversary re-release of this "far-out" animation fantasia (often cheap looking) with the unofficial participation of The Beatles who provide the soundtrack only. Their music and the images are entertaining but don't always match together, and the plot soon dissolves into a series of psychadelic images awaiting the next song number. A curio, to be sure.

Producer: Al Brodax/
Director: George Dunning.
Voices of: Paul Angelis, Dick Emery, Lance Percival, John Clive, Dick Hughes.
