... from the Magical Mystery Tour film (Dec 26, 1967) (2.15 MB, wmv, colour).
This song appeared in a scene filmed on Monday 30 and Tuesday 31 October, with Paul running around on hills in Nice, France. It is about a man who is considered a fool by others, but whose foolish demeanor is actually an indication of wisdom. Some have speculated that the man was The Beatles' guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogui, however, the song was based on a Paul's experience in London.
