I dunno seems like a perfect place to remind people that the Beatles hit their wives instead of trying to whitewash their history.

no one has done that making light of it is actually way worse than the discussion the thread had about it already.

the discussion amounted to hand wringing and saying “well john’s mom died” so hard disagree there

yes thats all that was said. you nailed it. if there's something you want to contribute about Lennon (or Ringo), by all means do so, but the insinuation that this thread is somehow DV apologia is dumb as gently caress, even by goon standards.

i used to think Ringo was pretty unremarkable but the documentary makes it pretty clear his biggest talent is tolerating john and paul

There’s also a long series of interviews with McCartney out right now, and he talks about how Ringo was the missing piece when they got started playing live. I guess it’s hard to appreciate the difference when we’re only listening to recordings, but when they were primarily a live band, it gave them a lot more energy.

It's only tangentially Beatles related but another good documentary is Under the Volcano that came out earlier this year. In the late 70s, George Martin started a studio on Montserrat, a Caribbean island, and a lot of big songs/albums from the '80s were recorded there, like from Elton John, The Police, Dire Straits and Paul McCartney. And it has a lot of home movies from that time plus interviews with a lot of the artists.

I wonder if Epstein could have held them in check if he hadnt passed

By this time they had three singer-songwriters frustrated that they were limited to five songs per album, tops. Epstein might have made the breakup happier by limiting their exposure to financial issues, but they were moving beyond the Beatles creatively. Sad that without the pressure cooker of the Beatles, no solo Beatle could match that creativity over whole albums.

Band On The Run is slamming from front to back and better than like, Beatles For Sale and their early albums with tons of cover songs. Hell I’d say it’s better than Magical Mystery Tour.

They restored it with AI and stuff. I know people were hating on it, but I thought it was good.

There's another documentary Peter Jackson did about WW1, They Shall Not Grow Old, where he went even further and colorized it and read people's lips to recreate their dialogue. That was a great documentary too. He should stick to documentaries instead of dwarf movies.
