It was a great documentary. I should probably buy the DVD as I missed part I.
I missed part two, only saw part one but it was great. I never understood a thing about George until this.
George was always my favourite. I knew quite a bit before but this really filled in the gaps. We need to get together and fill each other in on the parts we missed. For instance, in part 2 where his wife describes the break in at their home and how she basically saved George's life as he was being stabbed to death!
His whole thing with gardening was enlightening for me. Oh, and a delightful story told by a fellow rocker (was it Tom Petty?) about George having a trunkful of ukeles!! Everyone who knew him seemed to love him. I was always attracted to his spiritualism. He wasn't just dabbling in religion, he was on a spiritual journey. Truly he was an amazing man.
Did you see the part where his brothers talk about the Beatles singing at their sister's wedding, before they were even remotely famous. No one liked their music and when they took a break a woman sat at the piano and started singing music hall songs. John came up and poured a glass of beer on her head.
LOLs! Great story! No, I hadn't seen that part. Between the two of us - we saw the whole thing! :)
