The Hours and Times

Lennon and brian epstein really did go on vacation to barcelona, back in 1963. This film is christopher munch's creation of what might have taken place on the trip. In this version of the holiday, repressed brian hits on john. But john is married, and expecting a child. We learn quite a bit about brian epstein's life, as there aren't many people he can speak with openly. It seems he really does care for john, but clearly there are obstacles. It's okay. Pretty bleak. A fifty seven minute shorty. Epstein did a great job of getting the beatles to play bigger and better venues, but at a large percentage of the profits. It's probably helpful to read up on epstein in wikipedia. Written and directed by christopher munch. Unfortunately, epstein died at 32, from an overdose of various drugs.
