Does anybody know who plays the weird waiter who shovels a never ending supply of spagetti onto Ringo's Auntie's plate?

It's John Lennon. He's dressed up as a waiter with slicked back hair. According to a Beatle book I read, the segment was based on a dream John had had.

John Lennon plays the waiter in the spaghetti scene and also wrote and directed it.

Yes, the movie itself was created by Paul, but John made that scene.

I might have to watch it again, but that did NOT look like spaghetti to me.

yeah it looked more like mud instead of spaghetti. that was the most creepy and disturbing scene in the movie, the backround music is so scary! :O

Oh I loved that scene. John was really good in that. I loved that voice he used to, especially when Ringo's aunt Jessie asked him to help her up the stairs and the way he said. "Yes Lady." It just cracked me up.

The spaghetti was mixed with a few dish towels, for "fattening".
