Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was George Harrison's first solo album and the first release on Apple Records—he recorded it in India while the Beatles were imploding.
The title coined the term 'wonderwall'—yes, that Oasis song is referencing this film about a creepy professor, which makes Noel Gallagher's acoustic brooding even funnier.
