Other videos stop when the Beatles break up. There is no mention of the fact that
John, Paul, George and Ringo all had brilliant film, entertaining, and recording careers
long after their roles as The Beatles. In fact, placed end to end, their episode as The
Beatles would be viewed as but a brief moment in time in contrast to each person's own
accomplishments after Beatledom.
And that's where "The Scream Heard Around The World " comes in. This DVD neatly
carries on where others including "The Beatles Anthology" ends!
With this premise, The Scream Heard Around The World follows the foursome for a brief 30
minutes as the Beatles. The real action begins when they break up! Each goes his separate
way: Paul & Linda go on tour and own a media production and
distribution company. John takes up causes and together with Yoko, they record music and
create avant-garde films, later taking up the touring circuit again. Ringo stars in
several films, some hits, some so-so. And he, too, takes to the stage again. And George
releases a series of recordings and becomes a motion picture mogul. The story
is all interwoven in a quick-paced 90-minute video you'll place on your shelf beside and
to the right of your "Anthology" collection!
"The Beatles Anthology," produced by Apple Corps. Copyright
1995 by Apple Corps Ltd., is a wonderful video, and if you don't have one, likewise we
urge its purchase to be placed next to "The Scream Heard Around The World!"
