The Beatles Help Bluray
The new release will include the remastered version of the film with a 5.1 soundtrack, one hour of bonus material and a booklet that includes an essay by the film’s director, Richard Lester, and an appreciation by Martin Scorsese.
The Blu-Ray follows the 2007 debut of the film on DVD that was hailed by critics as looking like “several coats of dust have been cleaned off an old master’s painting.” Help! includes such Beatles classics as You’re Going to Lose That Girl, You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away, Ticket to Ride, The Night Before and the title song.

- The Beatles in Help! – a 30-minute documentary about the making of the film with Richard Lester, the cast and crew, including exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of The Beatles on-set.
- A Missing Scene – a film outtake, featuring Wendy Richard
- The Restoration of Help! – an in-depth look at the restoration process
- Memories of Help! – the cast and crew reminisce
- 1965 Theatrical Trailers – two original U.S. trailers and one original Spanish trailer
