Freda Kelly, secretary for the Beatles
Freda Kelly was just a shy Liverpudlian teenager when she was asked to work for a local band hoping to make it big: The Beatles. History now notes that The Beatles were together for 10 years, but Freda worked for them for 11. Many people came in and out of the band’s circle as they grew to international stardom, but Freda remained a staple because of her unfaltering loyalty and dedication.
In Good Ol’ Freda, Freda tells her personal stories for the first time in 50 years. One of few films produced with the support of the living Beatles and featuring original Beatles music, the film offers an insider perspective on the beloved band that changed the world of music.

Incredibly charming
Larry Kane, Beatles journalist
A compelling tale of the woman who played a decisive role as protector, guardian, and friend to The Beatles. Freda Kelly was truly the believer; in her mind, the dream would never be denied. This film is pure heaven for Beatles fans of all ages.
Angie McCartney, Paul’s stepmother
You could say The Beatles saw her as a sister, and the families saw her as a daughter. She’s one of the last survivors of the Beatles’ inner circle, and you know this story of Freda Kelly’s will surely be one of the last true stories of the Beatles that you’ll ever really hear.
