I watched the Beatles documentary "Get Back" (Peter Jackson, 2021).
Although it was quite long, it did not feel as such. Instead it felt good to see, or better experience, a group of young friends enjoying being creative together.
Peter Jackson in interviews noted often film cameras were running without being noticed by the fab four. This surely adds to the immersiveness watching the guys. I guess a lot of material showing lesser happier moments is not included in this documentary as it wasn't the director's aim to stress intermittent quarrels. The leave of George Harrison is a topic, though, and obviously Yoko Ono was quite present (much more than the other's girl friends), but at the same time being absent. (Or only concerned with John's attention, and taking opportunities to practice her exhausting vocalization? Quite the contrast to the harmony of Paul, John and George ;)
Although I love The Beatles, I never said they'd be my favourite band. I didn't even know exactly who's who; but the documentary made me fascinate over Ringo Starr being such a peace-loving (Octopus's Garden) and humble guy, even when he looks down to see the crowd that gathered to listen to their last public performance. A performance even the aged Londoners enjoyed!
Maybe a pandemic is a perfect time for such a long piece and this kind of content: friendship.
Simply meeting the blokes you know and like since many years in a regular setting. Create stuff together. Leave in the evening/night, maybe to meet with other loved ones/family, and come back in the morning/lunch time to start over.
Reading up on John Lennon's silly death some eleven years after the time of the filming made me very sad, though. Also Linda McCartney left quite an impression.
