IT WAS 50 YEARS AGO TODAY: The Beatles’ Rooftop Concert.

And hot off revisiting WWI, Peter Jackson is preparing a documentary using existing footage of another cataclysmic British battle:  Peter Jackson to make new Beatles documentary using unseen footage from ‘Let It Be’ sessions.

Next year will be the 50th anniversary of Let It Be. Whether it’s the original movie, or Jackson’s reboot, I hope that’s enough to finally get the last footage of the Beatles as a group released on Blu-Ray — my nearly 40 year old VHS copy can’t last forever!
