We were at the Curzon Mayfair on May 7 for the premier of the rebooted Let It Be in all its burnished finery and came away with a ton of things to unravel, among them …
… what we never knew when the film came out 54 years ago.
.. seeing it in the shadow of Peter Jackson’s Get Back.
… how the edit was overtaken by events and the tangled reasons it turned out the way it did.
… why Lindsay-Hogg’s amphitheatre concept would never have worked.
… the divine symbolism of the Beatles v the police.
… why it’s a perfect social document of late-’60s London.
… the band’s three-film film contract.
… was the world really as distraught about their break-up as the 21st Century assumes?
… herringbone coats, red plastic macs, hairy black jackets: why someone should open a Beatles ‘69 clothes emporium.
Plus … the noble philosophies of the late Steve Albini expressed in a letter to Nirvana in November 1992.
… and what happens when rock stars don’t leave wills: Exhibit A - Steve Marriott.
