Notes: This obscure American TV documentary about Richard Lester "The Man Behind The Beatles (With Respect To Mr. Lester)" was made to promote the American release of "How I Won The War".
It contains the only known colour footage of the London premiere along with some very brief but
rare home movie footage of Richard talking with John Lennon at an unknown location somewhere in England during the summer of 1967.
