  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

A Hard Day's Night is a Documentary about The Beatles.

And everything in the film really happened.

Yes, there does appear to be counter-evidence, but this theory was once popular among a certain class of film reviewer.

Norm mistakenly thought John's Aunt Mimi was John's mother.

This explains why he says "John, put those girls down or I'll tell your mother on you."

It's an understandable mistake. For most of John's childhood, Mimi acted more like his mother than John's real mother did.

Paul McCartney is on a Mission from God.

He said that his mother asked him to look after his grandfather. His mother had, in Real Life, been dead for eight years when this film was released. Clearly, there was some higher purpose... Though we never do find out what it is.

Paul's Grandfather broke up the band

We see in the film that he made Norm and Shake have the first fight in their entire friendship. He probably made a similar remark to John or Paul somewhere down the line and ended up making them grow tension and eventually split.

John's line about visiting Harrod's is connected to his mother.

"I say, did you go to Harrods? I was there in '58, you know." John's mother died in 1958 -- the "'58" John mentioned.
