FILM PLANS
THE Beatles are due to start recording the new songs for their forthcoming film on February 15th. A week later they fly off to the West Indies for the first scenes. The film will be a thriller and locations will take them to Nassau for two weeks and Austria for one week. And, it will be shot in colour.
The boys say that they have already decided that their third movie will be a cowboy and that they want all the location shots to take place in Mexico.
