Wiki.

The Running Jumping & Standing Still Film is a 1959 British sketch comedy short film directed by Richard Lester and Peter Sellers, in collaboration with Bruce Lacey.It was filmed over two Sundays in 1959, at a cost of around £70 (equivalent to £1,733 in 2021) (including £5 for the rental of a field).It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Subject, but lost to the Jacques Cousteau film The Golden Fish. It was a favourite of The Beatles, which led to Lester being hired to direct A Hard Day's Night and then Help!, in which Lacey makes a guest appearance as George Harrison's gardener in the sequence where the group arrive at their 'home'.The short film has been made available as a special feature on several home video releases of A Hard Day's Night. It is also featured in The Unknown Peter Sellers and a BFI released collection of rarely seen films from Bruce Lacey's career entitled The Lacey Rituals. It is also included as a special feature of the StudioCanal issue of I'm All Right Jack.
