A Hard Day's Night Response

The film A Hard Day's Night was in my opinion very influential. This was a big part in showcasing The Beatles and their talents. The film was very new for its time and got a lot of recognition. I really like the feel of the film, the guys are so raw in the film despite it probably being mostly staged, there is a artistic taste in every shot of the film, many of these shots hold value still today. The visuals in the film compared to Life Magazine while both very impactful are very different. The film feels very staged to me but with the movement and sound the film is really good a keeping your attention. The Life Magazine images are beautiful in their simplicity. Though the image is still it gives off so much energy arguably more then the film.
