Jeeze - thought people might be somewhat (even just slightly perhaps) interested in at least the studio shots, antiquated gear, etc, that enable such music to remain significant to this day . But apparently not ;- | geoff |

If so, you should know that a lot of us Yanks - myself not included - do not like the Beatles or their works. Hence the spirited(!) reaction to you post. Sorry this has happened! Cheers! |

What bugged me was that that the original post was nothing but a URL with the header of "... everybody has seen this by now..." with no explanation of what "this" is. How do I know whether I've seen it or not? How do I know that it's not an entry to malware? Of course I didn't click on it. And now that I know from other responses that it's a movie about The Beatles, I won't bother to click on it.

No, not UK. Nor USA. Just from part of the rest of the world without such musical (or other) xenophobia, or inflexible music-historic interests. A little 'surprise' Xmas cheer - apparently not. Didn't expect to get slammed for it. Ignored was sufficient. Guess the grinch-element is escalated at this time of year - slightly understandable. It was clearly a Youtube URL, so harmless - apart maybe to one's potential heightened sensitivities about musical taste. Would Frank Sinatra, CCW, Gershwin, Seekers, CS&N(not Y or course) Bernstein, Glen Campbell, Glass, Johnny Cash, Eagles, Willie Nelson, or The Band have been more acceptable ? If one doesn't have an antipathy towards everything Beatles, here's a Wikipedia entry regarding the project. WARNING do not click this link if disinterested - it will be a major effort, discomfort, and imposition. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles:_Get_Back geoff |

Hi Geoff,
Saw the clip. It's interesting to the degree that it shows them in the studio recording and looking a lot younger. That was fun. More interesting to me than all the the remixed, remastered, reinvented material. OTOH, "Yesterday" the movie was fun. I had it on my Amazon Wish List and got it on DVD for Xmas. Himesh Patel has a strong voice and it's well suited for Beatles material. The story arc between him and his manager was a bit tired, but she's cute. SNL's Kate McKinnon as record company exec was a hoot.. Her overplay was pretty spot on. From the looks of it, he can actually play! Although in the first shot of him playing, his left hand is obscured and he could have been faking it. Robert Carlyle did a very nice John Lennon. Seeing him made me a bit sad. The deep accents made it a bit difficult to hear what they were saying sometimes. I see Mr. Rivers received his order of **** and vinegar for Xmas! Yay Mike!! Here's the trailer just for you!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uqv...eclipsTrailers Thank God the year is almost over.... Cheers, Ty Ford |
