Beatles studio stages film festival
14/01/2005
Abbey Road studio, immortalised by the 1969 Beatles' album of the same name, is opening its doors for a film festival.
The North London venue near where the fab four were pictured walking synchronised over a zebra crossing is usually closed to the public.
But for 16 days this spring it will be showing many of the films that were scored at the St John's Wood site in an exclusive festival.
The films to be screened range from blockbusters such as the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Emperor to Beatles cult classics A Hard Day's Night and Yellow Submarine.
"In these unique surroundings, the season will give a glimpse of the role that Abbey Road plays in maintaining London's pre-eminence as the world's greatest centre for film scoring," a spokesman for the studio said.
Running from March 19th to April 3rd 2005, tickets for the extra special event are expected to sell like hotcakes when they become available from February 3rd.
