Denis O’Dell, a producer on two Beatles’ movies as well as “How I Won the War,” “Robin and Marion” and “Heaven’s Gate,” died Dec. 30 from natural causes in Almería, Spain at his home in San José, Cabo de Gata. He was 98.
He had already produced six movies, such as Brian Desmond Hurst’s “The Playboy of the Western World” in 1962, before his association with the Beatles which begun in professional terms with O’Dell taking an associate producer credit on Richard Lester’s “A Hard Day’s Night,” starring the Beatles and released in 1964.
Such was the Beatles’ gratitude to O’Dell that on “You Know My Name ,” one of the last songs the group recorded, Lennon introduces McCartney by the name of “Denis O’Bell.” By then, O’Dell had created a second residence in Almería, living in a spectacularly-located house on a small hill overlooking a cobalt blue Mediterranean Sea. There he proved a generous host to anybody from the film industry visiting Almería and an integral part of its significant international shoot scene which saw Spielberg film part of 1989’s “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” just down the road at the Playa de Monsúl and Ridley Scott shoot much of “Exodus” in Almería.
