McCartney: Now and Then

The content of this documentary is probably pretty good, but you may never know it. The sound engineer has the background music louder than the person being interviewed. I have never seen a worse production anywhere. The videographer isn't much better. Their continual use of a blurry soft filter is evidence of just how inept and inexperienced they are. I'm surprised the production manager and/or producers allowed this nonsense.

This could have been a great documentary about Sir Paul, but it fell completely flat. Neither the sound engineer or videographer should work in this industry again.

Don't waste your time with this one.

This reminds me of a bootleg or low rent documentary you'd get as a bonus feature on a concert dvd. There is NOTHING new to be learned here but if your a beatle fan you will enjoy it. If you are an obsessive fan you will LOVE it.

Right out of the gate, Paul McCartney's dialogue is drowned out by music. This continued for throughout the entire documentary, which caused me to lose interest. This is really unacceptable. Whoever mixed the sound on this did a very poor job. When the cast spoke without music it was better, but once music starts it drowns out the person speaking. Did anyone listen to it back before it was published?

The footage itself looks like it was lifted from a VHS. The picture quality is washed out and grainy, and this isn't an artistic gesture done for cinematic effect.

On the upside, if it is footage you have not yet seen and you are a Beatles fan you may find it a redeeming watch.

Did no one actually listen to this before they published it? Background music, not even Beatles music, is drowning out the dialogue in many of the scenes. I like the interviews with the different people and the stories, but the sound made it seem like someone who didn't know what they were doing did the editing. Very confusing.
