I've just read that Peter Jackson and editor Jabez Olssen's first rough cut (which was apparently *not* simply a compilation of rushes) of the new documentary was seventeen hours, and the second was ten hours!

I wish we could see that first cut!

As a self proclaimed Beatle Geek I assure you that I can sit through 59 takes of Get Back and still be interested…

Well, the concert consisted of three takes of "Get Back"; two takes each of "Don't Let Me Down" and "I've Got a Feeling"; and one take each of "One After 909" and "Dig a Pony".

Are we really going to sit through 3 takes of Get Back etc?
I’m sure I can stomach it. :lol:
