There are fascinating clips of him at work in the studio, scenes in which he acts upon his political beliefs with bed-ins and the like, and frank interviews. The inevitable soundtrack to the film is more than just a cash-in designed to appeal to rabid Beatles collectors who pay a king's ransom for Ringo's fingernail clippings, though. The album collects some of the finest musical moments from the film and turns them into an illuminating, intimate look at Lennon in his prime. |
