Ringo was the member of a competing local group, but when the Beatles, then the quarrymen needed a stand in drummer he filled in. So when The Beatles were discovered the label said their drummer Pete best wouldn't work and John, Paul, and George agreed and so Ringo become the drummer. Bonus tidbit, Ringo's nickname came from the fact that he always wore rings on his fingers so he got the nickname.

Who was determined to be the best actor of the Beatles in a hard days night?

Well, if you ask me, I thought they were all equal. But if you noticed, in every single Beatles movie, Ringo is the star. Not just because his stage name is Ringo "Starr", but because he would've been considered the best. In "A Hard Day's Night" (1964) Ringo was the one who stranded away and the Beatles had to find him before the show started. In "Help!" (1965) Ringo was the one who had the ring, and had gotten kidnapped. In "Yellow Submarine" (1968) Ringo found the rest of the Beatles. And was a big part in discovering the land of the Submarines. So, there's your answer. The best actor was Ringo........but they were all good. and........Ringo starred in a movie long after the Beatles split. "Caveman" (1981)
