Beatles vs. Stones
@bigtwin  The Beatles 1st US release was January 10, 1964.  So, in the US, it was 3 months.

@larsman The film also includes Black Panthers, Maoists, Nazi sympathizers, a bunch of white women getting shot, and “Eve Democracy”. it’s about the 60s, not (just) about the Stones. There’s an interesting scene in the rehearsal when they chan...
