My favorite Beatles song is Strawberry Fields Forever, however, there are many great songs to choose from.
In my youth, John Lennon was my favorite but by the time I reached my mid-twenties it had shifted to Paul. Maybe I just got mellow or the fact that John was no longer around to make music influenced me. All four Beatles are/were great musicians and John, Paul and George were also terrific song writers.
My favorite album, as you might have guessed is Abbey Road.

I haven't seen that movie but the statement is definitely wrong. As you said he wrote here comes the sun and as far as I know he contributed at least one song on each album. Because John and Paul wouldn't really let him do much more George Harrison had a huge pile of songs that he released when the net solo. So he definitely write a lot of songs, some of which were used for the Beatles.
I only got into the Beatles recently as my boyfriend introduced me and there is still so much for me to discover about them. I haven't heard all songs yet some of my favourite songs so far are Eleanor Rigby, Nowhere man and Get back.
I am really fascinated by the chemistry they created and I think undoubtedly they are one of the greatest bands of all time. Of course taste is different to everybody but the impact they had on the world at that time goes far beyond music and I am not aware of any band that has accomplished that ever since.
I think the slightly raw sound makes their music unique to most of the modern music out there which in my opinion has lost the human touch to it. I think the lyrics are great and their music is very soulful.
I like all four of them but personally I have a weakness for John and also George because I think they had quite an understanding about the world, John in a rather cynical way and George in a more embracing way and an interest into spirituality. Both very different to each other but I feel a similar quality. That is at least from my understanding.
