Section B: Swinging Sixties A Hard Day's Night Extras

View this clip of Keystone Kops to see how the police station scene emulates this style of slapstick comedy.


Watch the Running, Jumping and Standing Still Film,a short film directed by Richard Lester.  The Beatles were fans of this and wanted to work with Lester as a result.

You should be able to appreciate some of the visual style and the humour that is present in A Hard Day's Night.
