Let It Be | Peter & Michael | Disney+

See Peter Jackson and Let It Be director, Michael Lindsay-Hogg discuss the restoration of The Beatles 1970 documentary.
Let It Be is streaming May 8 only on #DisneyPlus.

[@artbrennan4915]

"They brought joy to the world." Lindsay-Hogg encapsulated The Beatles in 7 simple words. Perfect.

Peter Jackson thank you so much for doing a Beatles project. Peter deserves an Oscar .

[@tygerstripes3752]

Well, he's got one, but another Oscar would be nice, too!

[@RJLKMRD]

Agreed

[@tyjuarez]

Get Back & Let It Be are great. If they decide to go along with Peter on doing an even more extended Get Back, they should release it as a mini-episode basically every day January of 2025, to line up with the Beatles' schedule of 1969

BRING ALL THE FOOTAGE

[@The_momur]

So nice to be able to see Let It Be clean like this, as opposed to my 1979 VHS.

[@lynnturman8157]

Your 1979 DVD version's got nothing on my 1976 compressed zip file version.

[@The_momur]

@@lynnturman8157 oops, my mistake. It’s a VHS.

[@meechneek]

Exactly, it only ever had this very poor VHS quality in. At last the world will see it in Get Back’s quality 👌

[@pamelalapier9633]

I can't describe how much the Beatles mean to me. Thank you for giving us this.

[@ofb-jq5lc]

So glad for this restoration. We'll finally get a restored film of the studio performances of; Two Of Us, Let It Be, and The Long And Winding Road.

[@phillydisco]

It's been restored several times I'm guessing. If you watch Anthology, the Let It Be footage is crisp and bright, so they have been cleaning it up over the decades. It hasn't been sitting in a vault since 1970 deteriorating.

[@rafaelesquinardo1086]

@@phillydisco Thats not true. Since 1970 the film never had been restored until now, and the footage until Peter Jackson Get Back in 2021. For Anthology only were restored a few scenes.

[@phillydisco]

@@rafaelesquinardo1086 Not sure. I see your point that they could have just remastered certain sections, but they were fairly random and scattershot. It would make sense that the whole film was remastered, and then they pulled clips from that. If it's been planned to be released for a long time, that would make sense as well. There's always been something that holds it up.

[@rafaelesquinardo1086]

@@phillydisco Your opinion and the truth are opposite things. The entire film hasnt been restored until now. End of the story. Paul didnt want to restore Let it be until he saw Get Back series. The sections in Anthology are only eventual choices.

[@phillydisco]

@@rafaelesquinardo1086 From Wikipedia "Let It Be was remastered from the original 16 mm film negative by Apple Corps in 1992, with some footage seen in the 1995 documentary". And "After additional remastering, a DVD release containing additional footage (tentatively titled Let It A, B, C) was planned to accompany the 2003 release of Let It Be... Naked, " So it is NOT just my opinion.

[@pradyot__]

I can't tell how deeply I'm connected to a band that I started listening to when half of them left this world, half a century later. And I still relate to them. Just to imagine how ecstaticly incredible it would've been to see them perform gives me chills. This world will never get something like it.

[@louise123185]

This morning i realized that a single day doesn’t pass by without me thinking about the Beatles. It’s true for most of us really.

[@djsteve6687]

the 6 hour Get Back special wasn't enough, thank goodness we have the restored "Let It Be" film from 1970. I demand more, More, MORE BEATLes!

[@SpaceFlowerAesthetic]

*Im thankful we still have Ringo & Paul. The world wouldnt be the same without them*

[@justiceforjamespaulmccartney]

James Paul McCartney died in car crash on September 11 1966 and was replaced by William (Billy). This is the truth no matter what!

[@sammyk4403]

Been a long time Beatles fan since I was 14, never saw the Let It Be film, I AM HYPED

[@D3RPFR0G]

Peter Jackson has been with us for a while now with the Beatles! First Get Back (2021), then helped with lending the MAL technology for the Revolver Mix on 2022, then with the Red & Blue Album Mixes and Now and Then song with music video 2023. I’m sure if Rubber Soul is next this year (2024) then Giles will continue to use Peter’s MAL technology! I hope we see more Peter Jackson involvement with videos as well and MAL! Exciting times to be a Beatles fan!

[@girlswanted7]

Thank god for Peter Jackson between the Get Back documentary, D Mixing Technology, and now the Let It Be movie rerelease. This is awesome.

[@HannahsQuizzes]

One of my favourite songs 💗

[@danswan1047]

They continue to bring joy to the world ❤

[@patriciagonzales2148]

I saw this version @ the movies when I was 13yrs old. Although I haven’t seen it in a long time, the “Get Back “ version is a happier version. 🥰 Even though I love anything the Beatles are in & have since I was 6yrs old & saw them on Ed Sullivan. ❤️

[@girlswanted7]

I’ve been a Beatles fan since the 1990s and never saw the whole movie either. I’m super excited…

[@Marvdogger2]

Shame it was so short. Hope the BD has the full interview.

I've been a Beatles fan since I was 11 and I'm now 71. Every day I listen to some of their fantastic songs. Thank you Beatles.

[@joedee9811]

Let it be on blu ray please!

[@DougSalad]

it took over a year for Get Back. It could happen but it's not likely

[@humblebugg5270]

Disney have recently seemed to have changed their mind on physical media with the release of some of their Disney marvel shows, so I think there will definitely be a physical release of this with the demand. Altho it will be a year or two away

[@patrickstar6959]

Can't wait to watch

[@tyronewhitehead3123]

Fabulous

[@Pencilman246]

Do we get to see the full interview with Peter and Michael? I want to know what Michael thought of Get Back and vice versa. Get Back was marketed as a “correct the record” of Let It Be’s events, so I’m curious if Michael feels his original film was maligned to promote Get Back.

[@phillydisco]

I can honestly say, if Get Back wasn't released, there would be no Let It Be release. Paul and Ringo probably got to see the footage in a different light, and finally decided it was time to get Let It Be out too.

[@cesarmadero05]

Can this feature be 9 hours too? I love seeing them talk about this film. What a delight

[@henriquecardoso45]

Release Extended Get Back please!

Jackson wants too but Disney have no interest.

[@strangebrew1231]

I wish a film crew was recording them when they were making a better album like Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt Pepper, The White Album, or Abbey Road

[@phillydisco]

If you watch Get Back, part of the reason for the tension was being constantly filmed. So in all likelihood, those albums would not have been as good as they were if there was a film crew there every day.

[@jimcoleman598]

Geez, I always thought in "Two of us" the line after "Two of us riding nowhere, spending someone's hard earned pay" was "spending someone's autumn day" ...........for 55 years lol

[@phillydisco]

There were multiple takes done of all of the songs, so the lyrics varied. What MLH used in Let It Be wasn't the versions on the LP.

[@buckwrestling]

Very glad we can see the original film again without relying on low-quality bootlegs.

[@humblebugg5270]

I think the positivity of get back is overstated. Yes there are more positive moments but the overall boredom, tension and misery are there to see. Paul literally crys on camera at one point.

@@luminocitymusic Not quite true, there’s quite a bit of footage that was in the Let it Be film,

I wish somewhere, they would have had the COMPLETE ROOFTOP PERFORMANCE WITHOUT cutaways to the street etc. That's okay as a documentary, but why not let people experience the last complete live concert performed without all the interruptions! Why has no one questioned or thought of this?. You have the film (cutaways) as is...fine, now let people see the last concert complete!!! They obviously have the footage (non-stop) and they edited in all the people saying..."is that the Beatles?" etc. Come on Peter Jackson, Michael Lindsay-Hogg (Disney?), give us that!

[@sammcbride2149]

The truest of all true Beatles fans were the young screaming girls. They understood the magic of the Beatles in a truer and deeper way than anybody else did at the time and it's taken us a few decades to catch up with them. If you'll excuse me now, I'm going to go scream. And then I'm going to stream the Beatles.

Looks like was filmed in this decade. Crazy. Not the biggest fans of Beatles but respect the hustle and have songs I like. To see tis is nostalgic. Love restored film. Hope to see all Michael Jackson’s short films restored.
