Sir Lawrence Olivier


You just never know who will pop up in a Beatles photo wanting an autograph.   Here we have famed actor Lawrence Olivier posing with the guys in 1964.   It appears that a pad of paper has been passed around for each lad to sign his name on it for Larry.

  1. Oh....my...gawd. THAT is the greatest pic!

    I know Victor Spinetti tells a story in which Sir Lawrence was a little high-strung with John when Spinetti and JL were working on the stage version of "In His Own Write" and "Spaniard In The Works". But that truly is a fantastic photo, wow.

    Sir Lawrence is wearing a tux....hmm....could that be the Hard Day's Night premiere? Were the Fabs wearing tuxes at that, I can't remember....

    Well, whatever, Sara, that's a great one...among a blog of great ones!!!!!!!-mg
