Beatles Get Back documentary


Has anyone watched the Beatles Get Back documentary yet?  Unfortunately I don’t have a Disney subscription, but I may sign up to watch it.  Impressions?

I was really looking forward to watching as a die hard Beatle fan.

I must say that it got interesting when one of the hit songs were developed and played but a bit of a drag in many other parts were they were unfocused or playing seemingly unrecorded or old songs.

Surely, the first several days tracked the evolution of the process but there was a lot that was wasted or otherwise uninteresting and a bit boring.

I felt kind of sad that John seemed to be uninvolved much of the time.

For sure, it would be great to see the Lenon-McCartney writing process!

At least Part One was kind of a disappointment. My expectations were high.

Especially with the expectation of "great film making".

A great narrative film maker is not necessarily a great documentarian.

Wonder what Ken Burns could do with this material?
