George?


Okay, I think they did an awesome job on Stu, John and Paul. But George was a little off, In the movie the man who played George

1) Looked to old for a 17/18 year old.
2) Had blue eyes, George has brown eyes.

I loved how they had Ringo in the movie about two second and it was a random two seconds at that.

agreed, that was hilarious with Ringo! :D

but I also agree with your George statement, he looked far too old... but still, not bad!

Hey, yeah, what's with the blue eyes? Didn't their budget allow for some brown contacts?

reply

Yeah I agree, he couldn't play him at all anyway. Plus the accent was off......

He look nothin at all like George, and he looked older than the others when he was actually the youngest Beatle.

The actor who plays Paul, really looks like him though

I agree, he didn't look like George at all, but the voice was quite similar (I don't know about the accent though)
oh yeah....and the blue eyes were just a little too much.LOL

Re: The Ringo thing... He wasn't a Beatle and hadn't even stood in for Pete Best yet. He was on the scene in Hamburg, but not really integral to the timeline of this particular story.


And now for something completely different...

Chris O'Neill who played George is actually from Liverpool, so I don't really get that about the accent being off?

He plays Paul in a Beatles tribute band called the Backbeat Beatles and does a great job, they are excellent. It's amazing how much he sounds like Paul when he sings. I met him last year when I was on holiday, he's such a nice guy.

reply

He was aware of the disparity in Backbeat. He wanted to meet George and apologize to him, he said in the "extras".

George had a small role in the movie. But they could have splurged for brown contact lenses.

I didn't even expect Ringo to be in the movie. It took place before he joined the group.

reply

The accent was okay. Looked nothing like him though and indeed looked a bit too old.
