The Beatles Films Podcast

We've got a bonus episode now available on #TheBeatles' Let it Be restoration on @DisneyPlus. It's a short one because we already discussed the film itself in two parts last year, so here we're talking about its purpose alongside, and the audiovisual distinctions with, Get Back.

Happy new year: season six starts Monday. Mainly going to be posting about it in the other place so please follow us over there if you're over there. But might still do a bit here? I don't know, see how it goes, eh?

@toddkarenmusic Thank you! Merry Christmas!

@BeatlesFilmPod This was a great episode! Also, congrats on the tour de force on the Anthology earlier in the year.

Happy new Beatles film day to those who celebrate! #Beatles64 is now streaming on @DisneyPlus and they let us have an early look at it. So! A new episode is live in your podplaces.

@toptrackpodcast Ah yes of course! Here he is at his peak. Thanks for listening!

@BeatlesFilmPod I love the show and just listened to the Compleat Beatles. It was one of my favs growing up—-BUT the narrator is actually Roddy McDowell, not Malcolm. You may want to add that to the corrections part of the description. Love the show!

Fair enough! Thanks for listening.

@chelleMurt @laurelaitken007 @NemoNihil1664 @quantick Fun fact: that actor is the son of Bianca from Eastenders.

Brian Epstein biopic #MidasManMovie is released on Prime Video today! We saw it last week and we've got an episode about it waiting for you.

@desvw No, haven't heard anything, sorry! The press release we got was just for the UK. Will tweet if we hear anything though.

@BeatlesFilmPod Do you know when the US release date is?

Then listen to the episode. Or do both at the same time! Actually don't, that'd be thick. open.spotify.com/episode/62sVOS…

Watch the film: the performances and casting are fantastic. amazon.co.uk/Midas-Man-Joe-…

Podboys outing last night to see Crowded House. These guys are so into playing these songs still. Loved it!

@clarke_keith Happy accidents! Always such a satisfying part of the whole story.

@BeatlesFilmPod Caught on film. Love this. eu.palmbeachpost.com/story/entertai…

And of course our accompanying episode is equally, arguably even more, worth a listen. open.spotify.com/episode/3rKP94…

The Arena documentary The Brian Epstein Story is back on @BBCiPlayer for a month in its single feature length edit. bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… Very much worth a watch.
