As everyone knows, "Let It Be" shows The Beatles making that album and we all get to observe the group falling apart before our eyes. That of course, is very sad. But really....not to go on a subject spoken about a billion times, but really, one has to wonder why all those guys allowed Yoko Ono anywhere near the recording studio.
I say "all those guys" because John, while turning into a major wuss with Yoko, isn't all to blame. Paul, George, and Ringo should have demanded Yoko leave the work area immediately the first time John brought her around....maybe they did and they all had numerous huge fights? As a musician myself, this may sound "sexist" but I don't care because it isn't, when your band is recording music, you don't let your girlfriend or your wife hang around in the middle of everything, all the time. A visit here and there, fine...but really, it's sickening seeing photos and footage of the utterly talentless Yoko Ono with The Beatles as they record, produce at the board, etc.
I read in Linda McCartney's photo book, that when she called The Beatles over to photograph them for the single sleeve, she was shocked that Yoko also joined in on the picture. She was so shocked, she didn't say anything. But the question is, why didn't The BEATLES do anything about all this?
John obviously had no idea how whipped he had become and how foolish he was looking. Every so often when Yoko wasn't around, John from the late 60's onward would sometimes slip back from "serious and deep" John to the lovable, playful John of earlier times in various photos from the era for instance. But when Yoko's influence was around, John suffocated. The sad thing is, he probably really believed she was good for him.
When the other Beatles weren't having classic fights with John about Yoko (fights no one really knows details about but them, but you know they happened) they were probably laughing at him behind his back, at what a wuss he had become.
John was much better at being a human clown genius then a deep serious one - with his overrated "Imagine" song being the possible low point of John's deepness. How can he sing "Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can," when he wrote the song on a huge $50,000 grand piano, in his mansion, on countless acres of beautiful land? I wonder if JOHN can ever "imagine" no possessions?
Probably not. After all, he did answer "count the money" when asked what he'd do after The Beatles ended. Did he change? He maybe wanted everyone to think he did...but the glimpses of old, happy-go-lucky John are the best.
Best musical sequence (before the rooftop concert) is "Two of Us," a great song and a good showing of how easily The Beatles just do their thing and play.
As a film, "Let It Be" is nothing special at all, but anyone into or interested in The Beatles will love it, because those people (as I am) would love anything The Beatles are on, just for the sake of seeing them.
And the famous George and Paul scene...just because George didn't tell Paul where to go, don't think he *never" told him....
