A new digitally restored version of the much-lauded musical comedy hit screens nationwide over the Fourth of July weekend. Directed by Richard Lester, the original movie was shot with a production budget of just $500,000, and went on to gross more than $12 million.

The film features such classic songs as "I Should Have Known Better," "If I Fell," "Can't Buy Me Love" and the title track. more on this story
