Catch Us If You Can - 1965 - 6/10

I first saw this ... mmm ... 40 years ago. Brit Invasion film, dimly remembered.
I recalled this being a funny comedy featuring the DC5, who during this period, were real rivals to the Beatles.
Instead, this is lightweight satire.
The band play stuntmen for a Beef For Go! commercial.
The movie is 90% dour faced Dave Clark and Barbara Ferris. Other band members casual tokens.
No real plot. Nonsense scenes, chases, dull dialogue.
Hard Days Night, this ain’t, though it clearly wants to be.
I fought sleep watching this.
Early John Boorman directorial effort.
