….Why?WHY is it so hard to make The Beatles LOOK and SOUND like The Beatles?!
Hard to make a film about The Beatles without The Beatles, I guess
But it’s not like there haven’t been better immitators! Even Markk McGaan was a great John look-alike in “John And Yoko: A Love Story”

The worst bit is that the guy playing John Lennon is way too short, about 5’8″ compared to Lennon’s 5’11”. Otherwise everything else (period instruments, studio detail) at least in the short studio 2 clip is the most accurate i’ve seen in any Beatles biopic. I think that’s the best ‘George Martin’ i’ve seen so far.

You mean Paul McGann? Yeah, he was fantastic in that. A bonus is you also get Peter Capaldi playing George Harrison .

No no, Paul was his brother. This was Mark. (Dunno WHY i said Robert! Oops!) 🙂
(And yes, I love Paul too. His Doctor is my favorite.)
Wish they gave Capaldi another season!
ANYHOO! Time to watch the movie. Anyone seen it yet?

Midas Man is live on Disney now.
First thoughts, (almost all superficial cos I’m tired).
John was too short.
There weren’t enough matadors.
George should have been an extra in ‘The Walking Dead’.
Pete was too old.
The film felt disjointed.
Best review I’ve got to offer right now. Like I said. I’m tired.

The Pete actor was too old, but he’d clearly been watching old interviews with him so he had his tics and mannerisms down pat. Same with the guy playing Paul.
