The Running, Jumping and Standing-Still Film

1959 · Peter Sellers · 10m 54s

The Running Jumping & Standing Still Film is a 1959 British experimental sketch comedy short film directed by Richard Lester and Peter Sellers, in collaboration with Bruce Lacey. It was a favourite of The Beatles, especially John Lennon, which led to Lester being hired to direct A Hard Day's Night (1964), Help! (1965), and How I Won The War (1966), which starred Lennon. In Help!, Lacey makes a guest appearance as George Harrison's gardener in the sequence where the group arrive at their "home".
