The Beatles in Today's World

The Beatles still have their place in the artistic world even today. The movie musical, Across The Universe, was made in 2007 by director Julie Taymor and written by Dick Clement and Ian Le Frenais.It is about a love story set during the 1960s during the anti-war movement as the two main characters try to fight their way to each other again. Across The Universe features the songs of the Beatles, just resung by the characters. There is also a Across The Universe movie soundtrack with the remade songs of the Beatles.

The Beatles have also had a videogame based off of them. The Beatles: Rockband, is a videogame where the player can be a band member and create, play, record music, and live through the lives of the band members. It seems pretty awesome and can be used on almost any gaming system (The Beatles: Rockband!)

The Beatles' artifacts, photos, fan memorabilla are also in many museums around the world, including the Rock-and-Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH and in The Beatles Story in Liverpool.

The painter, Peter Bettinger, also incorporates the Beatles into his artwork as well into his collection called "Beatle Art-2002", "The center spots are directed to their humour ,their charisma ,their private lives.It is lifelooking painted with living eyes in the best available oil colors on high qualified linen (I hate the word canvas). Sometimes with some cynism for they are just human beings like you and me with all their ups and downs. I myself adore the Beatles but I don't wanna be mentioned a fan for this word means 'fanatic' and underlines more than often the foolish discrimination of people's 'importance' on the world's social ladder. Screaming,stalking, fainting is not my world. Painting in a different style is what BEATLES-ART 2002 wants to be" (Bettinger).
