The 2016 Ron Howard-directed Beatles documentary, Eight Days A Week: The Touring Years, has snagged no less than five Emmy Award nominations.  Vanity Fair reported that the doc has been nominated for Outstanding Documentary Or Nonfiction Special; Outstanding Picture Editing For A Nonfiction Program; Outstanding Writing For A Nonfiction Program; Outstanding Picture Editing For A Nonfiction Program; Outstanding Sound Editing For A Nonfiction Program (Single Or Multi-Camera); and Outstanding Sound Mixing For A Nonfiction Program (Single or Multi-Camera).

Eight Days A Week – The Touring Years, which had a brief theater run, along with premiering on Hulu, is now available on DVD and Blu-ray.  The doc provides a new overview of the “Fab Four” as a performing band between 1963 and 1966, and features fresh perspectives from the surviving Beatles, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, who along with John Lennon and George Harrison‘s respective widows — Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison — served as executive producers on the doc.
