Fans of the Beatles as well as connoisseurs of filmmaking will find a wealth of information, much of it new, in Andrew Yule's biography of Richard Lester, director of such "masterpieces" as Petulia, Robin and Marian and How I Won the War, as well as such commercial blockbusters as The Three Musketeers and his two mega-grossing Superman movies. Still, Richard Lester is probably best known as the man at the helm of the Beatles' twin hits Help and A Hard Day's Night - pioneering a process he called "controlled chaos" - which helped define the Fab Four's mad-cap public persona and catapulted the director to fame as well. Richard Lester's memories of working with the group yield a wealth of fascinating insights and anecdotes that make The Man Who "Framed" the Beatles a rich, uniquely compelling account. Of course, Lester's career does not begin and end with the Beatles; his stubborn refusal after his early success to make films "purely for the money" led to a five-year hiatus in moviemaking - which ended with the acclaimed, now-classic Three Musketeers and its sequel. Brought in as producer to steer Superman: The Movie to its successful conclusion, Lester triumphantly directed Superman II and Superman III, and ultimately entered the 1980's as the film industry's highest paid pre-Spielberg director. Paul McCarthey writes the introduction to The Man Who "Framed" the Beatles, the definitive work on one of the most respected and ground-breaking film directors of the last thirty years - Richard Lester. Including thirty-six rare and unpublished photos, plus the "lost" scene from A Hard Day's Night, The Man Who "Framed" the Beatles is a must for fans of the genre and of the Beatles, and a classic in filmmaking history.
