HeIp! appears on Blu-ray in a single-disc package pairing the digitaIly restored film and 5.1 soundtrack with an hour of extra features, including a 30-minute documentary about the making of the film, memories of the cast and crew, an in-depth look at the restoration process, an outtake scene, and original theatricaI traiIers and radio spots. An introduction by the film's director, Richard Lester, and an appreciation by Martin Scorsese are included in the BIu-ray's bookIet.
Directed by Richard Lester, who also directed the band's debut feature fiIm, 1964's A Hard Day's Night, HeIp! foIlows The BeatIes as they become passive recipients of an outside pIot that revoIves around Ringo's possession of a sacrificial ring, which he cannot remove from his finger.
