Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPaul McCartney bought the rights to this film and removed it from circulation, presumably so that it wouldn't compete with the Beatles' official 'Beatles Anthology' documentary.
- GoofsWhen they were told about the cartoon movie, Yellow Submarine, the narration states that the only thing the Beatles knew about the cartoon animation was that it was being done by the people that made "The Flintstones," a Hanna-Barbera Production.
Yellow Submarine was produced by Al Brodax and King Features Syndicate.

Featured review
An excellent introduction
For anyone too young to really know the Beatles and their work, but are wondering what all the fuss was about, this is a very interesting introduction. It could have been so much longer, but the producers wisely condensed it to this size.
Watching this, you realise that Madonna, Eminem, REM, Robbie Williams and anyone else around today is only mildly popular by comparison.
However, if young people want to see an old band who REALLY lived the rock and roll lifestyle, see the Who's film 'The Kids Are Alright'.
