roaming_kate23*It being 1964 things are much cheaper-$3.98 for a album!
*Pay phones-and in a record store, too!
*Pam is getting married-to her jerk boyfriend(more about him in a minute)and they were going to have a shower for her but decide to go to New York instead (they live in New Jersey)so Grace(their other friend)can get pictures of the band.
Rosie tells them that Larry Dubois’ dad has lots of limos..he’s an undertaker. They are able to talk him into driving them to the city(even though he only has his learner’s permit!)
*Janice,the record store owner’s daughter is an antagonist (at least at the start..)
*They head out toy New York(via Philadelphia..)on the way they meet up with Tony Smerko who is the archetype of the greaser who would HATE The Beatles back in the day.True enough. He does not like the Beatles(but by the end of the movie is a fan.)
*Larry Dubois has a crush on Jackie Kennedy (mind you this was not horribly long after the assasination of JFK ..it was pretty fresh in peoples’ memories.
*Rosie does a roll out of the car to get to a pay phone in order to get tickets for the Ed Sullivan show.
*Finally they get to the hotel and Smerko manages to create a diversion so that the girls can sneak into the hotel. Rosie instantly gets caught though .
*Fans think a mop is a..mop top and that gets them screaming,lol.
*Pam loses her engagement r8ing and has to hide in a storage closet. She sees the Beatles walking by on the way to their limo and..she’s more of a fan than we thought!
*Grace gets caught. Rosie meets a kid named Richard Klaus who goes by the name Ringo,just like Ringo Starr.He’s just as much of a fan as Rosie is. Ringo took over a room in the Plaza hotel and has it covered with Beatles swag.Knows everything about the Beatles..but so does Rosie.
They get thrown out of the hotel .
Rosie calls Richard her “boyfriend”. Oops.
*Funny moment with Beatles fan outside being interviewed-“I love John..he could get a divorce, or his wife could die in a plane crash”. LOL.
*In having to hide, Pam gets under a room service trolley and winds up in the Beatles’ hotel room and..yeah. She is more of a fan than she thought.She touches Paul’s bass and gets some souvenirs (including hair and cigarette butts!) She almost gets caught, and then gets caught later on(and gets tickets to Ed Sullivan)
*Janice meets a male Beatles fan who has tickets to the Ed Sullivan show.His dad wants him to have a haircut to get the tickets back.
*Grace has a chance to take pictures of the Ed Sullivan stage.. for $50 which seems incredibly steep for 1964.
*Two girls think Tony looks like Paul McCartney.That goes over about as well as you would think.
*Larry and Grace try to sell fake Beatles bedsheets but almost get beat up by a bunch of female toughs.
*Janice and Peter try to break into the Ed Sullivan theater, almost get arrested but are saved by fellow Beatles fans.
*Larry and Grace are at a bar-Larry is DRUNK.Grace overhears a guy calling for an escort.She formulates a plane to which Larry says it is a sin. Grace gets her money.
*Janice and Peter talk Tony into getting the tickets back which they do. Peter’s dad want him to have a buzz cut.
*Rosie goes back to the Plaza(she has a key in her pocket still), wins tickets to the Ed Sullivan show but gets stuck in the elevator with Ringo/Richard who snuck back into the hotel. They are able to get out of the elevator though.
*Pam does a press conference “the girl who got into the Beatles’ hotel” and she seems overwhelmed. Her boyfriend Eddie is not happy about it though.Later, Pam does a feminism as they are passing the Ed Sullivan theater and decides she would rather see the Beatles than get married to Eddie.
*Tony tries to interrupt the Ed Sullivan show but almost gets electrocuted;The Beatles are on Ed Sullivan and Rosie faints!
*Meanwhile, Grace has to pay a parking ticket for Larry so no $50 to take pictures of the Beatles.After the show The Beatles all pile into the limo that Grace and Larry are in and they take off, with Grace taking lots of pictures . The rest of the kids see the New Jersey plates and Tony says “nah…couldn’t be!”
(I would’ve loved to see what happened next, especially with Larry and Grace getting to drive the Beatles around .
Also, did Rosie and Ringo stay friends/become boyfriend/girlfriend ?
Most importantly:I hope to god that Pam didn’t go back to Eddie afterwards.I rather doubt it.)
