Backbeat with Iain Softley | Picturehouse
Felicity Beckett speaks to filmmaker Iain Softley about his classic film, Backbeat. Coming to Picturehouse at FACT and Duke Of York's Brighton for special 35mm screenings + Q&A this month. In 1960, close friends Stuart Sutcliffe (Stephen Dorff) and John Lennon (Ian Hart), along with bandmates Paul McCartney (Gary Bakewell), George Harrison (Chris O'Neill), and Pete Best (Scot Williams), move to Hamburg, Germany, in search of success. Their tireless performing schedule and charismatic sound quickly put the Beatles on the road to stardom. But as Stuart falls in love with Astrid (Sheryl Lee), a local photographer, he realizes his commitment to the band isn't as strong as he thought.
