This didn’t do much for me.
Maybe it’s because I worked as a sort-of projectionist at Beatlefest in Los Angeles for a few years, showing tenth generation copies of obscure footage that the promoter had loaded onto home-grade Betamax tapes, so I’ve already seen a lot of rare Beatles stuff. Maybe it’s because I just saw a DEVO documentary that was more energetic and more directly connected to my world. Or maybe there’s been so much Beatles content in general that I’m approaching my Beatles saturation point.
Sure, there were some fascinating moments- The Miracles covering “Yesterday,” David Lynch talking about attending their first concert in the United States- but very little of The Beatles themselves felt fresh or surprising.
