PROMO ously, only to change his mind following Peter Jackson’s decision to shoot a new version. “The director told me that lm will actually tell the story of friends working together,” says McCartney. And thus fans are growingunderstandably excited about the news that a new version of the lm is being prepared from the 55 hours of original footage and 140 hours of audio recordings, including the 42-minute lmof the band playing on the roof of Apple. “It’s like a time machine that transports us back to 1969. We sit in the studio and watch these four friends making great music together,” said the director. The footage of the fab four making an album was originally shot for a television documentary, but the project evolved into a feature-length lmthatwasbrie y shown incinemasbeforedisappearing and becoming a rare collectable onVHS. “After reviewing all the footage that Michael Lindsay-Hogg shot 18months before they split up, it’s simply an incredible historical treasure trove,”noted Oscar-winner Jackson, announcing that the lm will be humorous, exciting and surprisingly intimate. Itwill bea lmthat’s already being looked forwardtobyeveryonewho’s ever lovedTheBeatles, and for many reasons. First and foremost, that project hadbeen lost andwasneveravailableon anytechnologycreatedafterVHS.Youwon’t nditon DVD or Net ix, as though the surviving bandmembers let it fade into oblivion. And that’s no great surprise, given that it’s a testimony to their worst days, containing arguments between Harrison and McCartney, who calledtheshootinghellish andthemostmiserableon Earth! Of course, none of that found itsway into the original version, so it will be exciting to see their real relationships.UnlessMcCartney persuades Jackson not to show it after all, and to concentrateon conductinga forensic studyof themusic-makingprocess. And both would be fascinating, right? Apart fromthat, we still haven’t yet seenhalf the rooftop concert! The Beatles’ last gig is one of the most legendary live performances ever, but the original lm contained only 21 of the 42 minutes. Jackson’s lmwouldhave to capture every secondof the recording, fromthemoment they steppedonto the rooftop to the moment the police forced them o ! Legendary. And as if all of that wasn’t enough for us to barely be able to wait for the new Let It Be, there is also a possibility that in the lm we’ll hear Lennon singing I Lost My Little Girl, the rst song McCartney ever wrote, when he was just 14! Another recording that was previously lost. Is there any better way to celebrate the 50th anniversary? Let it be! It’s like a time machine that transports us back to 1969. We sit in the studio and watch these four friends making great music “ To je kao vremeplov u 1969. godinu.
