What is A Hard Day's Night CD-ROM?

An interactive CD-ROM of the Beatles film "A Hard Day's Night" (1964) in which you can read the script as the movie plays alongside it. The digitised version of the film skips every other frame so the motion stutters somewhat. The interface allows you to call up any scene in the film, or any of the songs. Included is a 160 page essay by rock historian Bruce Elder, extensive biographies of nearly every cast and crew member, a clip from director Richard Lester's first film, "It's Trad, Dad (1962)", and all 11 minutes of his 1960 cult short, "The Running, Jumping and Standing Still Film". In short, the CD-ROM format offers a wealth of subsidiary information.
