The narration states that what John Lennon said about the decline of religion were misquoted by an American teen magazine, which led to a backlash against the Beatles in the United States. The teen magazine did want to create controversy, but the quotes attributed to Lennon are accurate and were not misquoted.
The narration states that the first promotional films the Beatles were creatively involved in are The Beatles: Strawberry Fields Forever (1967) & The Beatles: Penny Lane (1967). However, the group had worked on promotional films before those, such as The Beatles: Rain (1966) and The Beatles: Paperback Writer (1966).
The narrator claims that Magical Mystery Tour (1967) was never released in the United States. It had actually been released in the US when this documentary was produced. It was screened at Fillmore East in New York on August 11, 1968. New Line Cinema later re-released the movie in the 1970s.
When they were told about the cartoon movie, Yellow Submarine, the narration states that the only thing the Beatles knew about the cartoon animation was that it was being done by the people that made "The Flintstones," a Hanna-Barbera Production.
