Has anyone encountered this package? It got sent to me as a present for Christmas and of course I am chuffed as it is something to do with the Beatles. It is beautifully presented with a great picture on the cover of John and George from their Hamburg days. It also comes complete with a 64 page booklet. I watched the DVD the other night and discovered the quality of the film was aweful. Not only was the narration full of errors but the actual film source was poor, I have seen much clearer versions of the same film in other movies. One of the extras is an interview with Chapman about how he murdered John. (like you might want this footage) The redeeming feature of this package are some nice interviews on the cd with Olivia and Yoko. My message to you - Buyer beware.  |

I saw it in HMV but didn't buy it. I'm glad I didn't waste my money if it's that bad. Thanks for the warning.

I don't want to completely frighten you off this, it has its moments, just try to get it from the discount bin instead of paying full price for it.  |

Hmm, it's the same with the DVD of 'The Beatles - From Liverpool to San Francisco'. Since then, I never buy any vids again, unless when they've been published by somewhat more proffesional people (sorry, don't know how to put it to words otherwise).
I don't think I'd buy it... Shouldn't it be written as 'Guitars Gently Wheep' - seen as Guitar's makes me think of 'Guitar is' (gimme a punch on the gob if I'm wrong xD I'm not a native speaker after all)

Don't really know why though, thank you for pointing it out. *makes mental note of it* |
