Help!

Submitted by Jean Laquerre

Capitol Records released a new version of the beloved Beatles movie “Help!” and to everyone’s pleasant surprise the release contains a number of hidden features also.

Insert Disc on of the set in your player and on the Main Menu highlight the “Play” menu entry and then press the “Up” arrow key on your remote control. You will notice John Lennon turns red and if you press the “Enter” key now you will hear the first of six U.S. radio publicity spots from 1965.

Back on the Main Menu, highlight the “Play” entry once again and press the “Up” key on your remote control twice. This time George Harrison will be highlighted and when you press “enter” you’ll hear the second of the radio publicity spots from 1965.

To highlight Paul McCartney, highlight “Play” and then press “Up” twice, followed by the “Left” arrow key. Then press “enter” and you will hear the third of these radio publicity spots.

Finally, highlight the “Play” menu entry, press the “Up” arrow key, followed by the “Left” key and the bottom right picture of John Lennon will be highlighted, giving you access to the fourth of the radio publicity spots from 1965.

Now, insert the second disc in your player and highlight the menu entry “Play All.” Press the “Up” arrow key on your remote control and George Harrison’s instrument will be highlighted in red. Press “Enter” and you’ll hear the fifth of the radio publicity spots.

The last Easter Egg can be found by highlighting the “Subtitle” menu entry and then pressing the “Up” arrow key. The piano will be highlighted and if you press “Enter” now you will have the chance to listen to the last of the six radio publicity spots.
