10 Things We Want To See In Peter Jackson's Upcoming Beatles Documentary
10. More Joking Around
One thing that none of the Beatles have lost during their lifetimes is their great wit. From their earliest interviews to now, the Fabs were always a captivating presence whose interviews made for some of the funniest banter a rock band had ever indulged in. In the original Let It Be movie though, that type of rapport was a bit few and far between.
Throughout much of the original film, the band seem tired, dissatisfied with their material, and unwilling to communicate with their fellow band members about the creative process. It even led to verbal spats between band members, with George Harrison famously leaving midway through the session to go work on his material alone.
Where were the four lovable rockers that the world fell in love with back in the early 60's? Sure there were disagreements, but it's nearly impossible for a band to be this salty towards each other without one of them cracking a joke. Regardless of how it begins, a good amount of humor could be brought to give a bit of silver lining to the band's darkest days. The sessions may have been pained, but seeing the more mellow side of the band will help ease the tension of the band's eventual dissolution.
