In 1964, a group of New Jersey teenagers make it their mission to travel to New York City in order to catch the Beatles' very first performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show." Pam (Nancy Allen) is engaged, and hopes to live it up a bit before marriage. Grace (Theresa Saldana) aspires to be a photographer, and thinks snapping a few pics of the group will accelerate her career. And Janis (Susan Kendall Newman) just wants to complain about how the band brings down serious art.
