The summer of love, 1967, brought the Beatles return to film making with Magical Mystery Tour. This film follows the Beatles and an oddly assorted cast on a "magical" coach trip throughout the English countryside. The film begins with Ringo buying tickets for himself and his Aunt Jessie (Jessie Robbins). After they board the bus, the Magical Mystery Tour begins. The unique stops of the bus are intertwined with several rare performances of Beatle songs such as "I am the Walrus" and "The Fool on the Hill."
