Five decades ago The Beatles were changing the world with songs the band recorded is staggering.
Their sheer creative output is part of why they have such a lasting legacy, and it becomes even more overwhelming when you remember they were also movie stars. The quality of those movies varies wildly, but there are several all-time classics among the films The Beatles made together, and none hold up better than Yellow Submarine.

There was "The Fab Four" but only one of The Beatles never shied away from vocal political protest: Libra leader John Lennon.

My late pal DJ Murray Kaufman, professionally known as Murray the K, was an influential New York City disc jockey until the '70s.
He was my favorite DJ and during his heyday, Kaufman was dubbed ''The Fifth Beatle'' after helping to introduce the Fab Four to America and serving as master of ceremonies for their concerts at Carnegie Hall and Shea Stadium. He became program director and drive-time disc jockey on WOR-FM, 98.7, one of the first FM rock stations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xh4URmTx78w

The Fab Four are the most important rock band of all time. Lennon and McCartney wrote all the best songs with help from their friends.
