Documentary footage of the Beatles' visit to Japan released, uncut version.



16mm film footage documenting security and other aspects of the Beatles' visit to Japan has finally been released by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
For privacy reasons, the faces of all but the members of the Beatles have been censored. Also, as it is silent film, there is no sound.
However, it does contain previously unseen footage of the 2 July performance. :shock:
Enjoy.
