There’s just so many fascinating moments to reflect on ( just looked at a couple of particularly strong articles from the Guardian and the Ringer, the film is a gift of epic proportions to anyone who wants to write anything about the Beatles).
It makes me love the Beatles more than ever, which I never imagined. Sure, its a bit exhausting and there are dull moments, but it all ends up totally worthwhile.
I read somewhere that the film even transcends the Beatles and captures what is great about making music like nothing previously! I know people get sick of this kind of lavish praise about the Beatles but that is honestly how I feel right now. It’s a beautiful depiction of music making and Ive never seen anything like it. Somehow seeing “Get Back” itself take shape is so dramatic, joyful and insightful. I prefer this journey to the one Peter Jackson took us on in LOTRs!!
I don't want to mention specific moments just yet to avoid spoilers (but there so many I want to!) Damn this is going to rattling round my head and making me smile for days (and weeks) to come.
Sorry for the Beatles PR exercise, but this was the most exciting thing to happen to my musical world in 2021. |
I watched P1 last week, thought it as excellent. It really is some phenomenal footage— and like you said, just a great doc of a band in the music making process, Beatles or not. Hoping to get around to the rest soon. |
Oh, cool you liked Part 1. I’d say it gets even better in parts 2 and 3 so enjoy
