Parts

Production

The movie Yellow Submarine was a box-office hit, creative images, and its soundtrack of Beatles songs. The recurring line "It's all in the mind" is taken from The Goon Show. In summer 1967, director George Dunning brought German artist Heinz Edelmann to London to work as production designer on this movie. The Beatles' animated personas were based on their appearance in the promotional film for the song "Strawberry Fields Forever". The real Beatles participated only in the closing scene of the film, with the fictional counterparts of the Beatles voiced by other actors.

Quotes


RINGO: I could have sworn there was a yellow submarine. But that isn't logical, is it? It must have been one of them unidentified flying cupcakes or a figment of my imagination.

JOHN: There's a Cyclops. PAUL: Can't be. He's got two eyes. JOHN: Then it must be a bi-Cyclops. GEORGE: There's another one. JOHN: A whole cyclopedia.

JEREMY HILLARY BOOB, PHD.: I must complete my bust, two novels, finish my blueprints, begin my beguine. JOHN: Must you always talk in rhyme? JEREMY HILLARY BOOB, PHD.: If I spoke prose, you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about. Ad hoc, ad loc and quid pro quo. So little time, so much to know.

RINGO: Open your mouth, it won't hurt. John, you haven't half got a big mouth, haven't you? JOHN: It's easy. All you need is love.

OLD FRED: By Neptune's knickerbockers, she's puttered out. JOHN: Maybe we should call a road service. PAUL: Can't. No road. RINGO: And we're not sub-scribers. PAUL, JOHN, GEORGE: Subscribers!

RINGO: It's all a load of Father Xmas's. PAUL: It's not. It's Father Time. RINGO: How do you know? PAUL: I read it in a book.

RINGO: He's so smart, he doesn't even remember what he knows. PAUL: Why don't we show him our motor? JEREMY HILLARY BOOB, PHD.: Turbo-prop, super-combustible spring. Metrocyclonic and stereophonic, this motor, I see, has a broken down thing.

GEORGE: How many do you think there are in all? JEREMY: Enough to fill the Albert Hall.

CHIEF BLUE MEANIE: The hills are alive... MAX: With the sound of music. CHIEF BLUE MEANIE: Who is responsible for this? MAX: Rimsky Korsakov? Guy Lombardo? CHIEF BLUE MEANIE: My dear friend let us not forget that heaven is blue.

GEORGE: Hey, that's a funny place to leave a goldfish bowl. JOHN: In Pepperland, all things are possible. PAUL: It's not a goldfish bowl. JOHN: Just a big glass bowl, then. PAUL: It's blue glass. RINGO: It must be from Kentucky.

RINGO: Compared with my life, Eleanor Rigby's was a gay, mad whirl. I feel like an old, splintered drumstick. OLD FRED: What you need is 'H' for hurry, 'E' for ergent, 'L' for love me and 'P' for please help.



Songs from movie soundtrack


Yellow Submarine song lyrics:
In the town where I was born, / Lived a man who sailed the sea, / And he told us of his life, / In the land of submarines. / So we sailed on to the sun, / Till we found the sea of green, / And we lived beneath the waves, / In our yellow submarine. / We all live in a yellow submarine, / Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, / And our friends are all aboard, / Many more of them live next door, / And the band begins to play. / We all live in a yellow submarine, / Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, / As we live a life of ease, / Everyone of us has all we need, / Sky of blue and sea of green, / In our yellow submarine. / We all live in a yellow submarine, / Yellow submarine, yellow submarine. / We all live in a yellow submarine, / Yellow submarine, yellow submarine,

Review

The movie is fictional with stuff you wouldn't find in any other animated movie. A wonderfully vibrant and gorgeous cartoon and a treat for the eye and ear. The Yellow Submarine movie exists as pure charm, expressed in fantastical imagery on the Beatles unforgettable music.

PAUL MCCARTNEY: Catchy tune, that. RINGO STARR: I can't seem to get it out of my head. GEORGE HARRISON: Then shake it. RINGO STARR: That's what we've been doing all night. PAUL MCCARTNEY: Yeah, it was a great party. GEORGE HARRISON: And we brought back lots of lovely souvenirs. Here is the motor. PAUL MCCARTNEY: I've got a little love. RINGO STARR: And I've got a hole in my pocket. PAUL MCCARTNEY: A hole? RINGO STARR: Half a hole, anyway. I gave the rest to Jeremy. GEORGE HARRISON: What can he do with half a hole? PAUL MCCARTNEY: Fix it to keep his mind from wandering. RINGO STARR: Look at John, will you? PAUL MCCARTNEY: What's the matter, John? JOHN LENNON: Blue Meanies? Newer and bluer Meanies have been sighted within the vicinity of this theatre. There's only one way to go out. GEORGE HARRISON: How's that? JOHN LENNON: Singing.
