Ugh. No more biopics. They are almost always factually inaccurate. Is the documentary a dead medium? I guess people prefer fiction to non-fiction.

I like PBS docus best. This would be "edutainment" at best I bet. Still could be fun if you take it as a somewhat fictional tale of what his life could have been like, if things were way more interesting than real life. ;-)

Excellent Steve. You just summed up every biopic ever made. :applause

I'll skip it and watch Martin Scorsese's "Living in the Material World: George Harrison" coming out later this year or next year.

I'm looking forward to that one as well, though I hope Scorcese understands George better than he understood The Band.

I just can't get into the Beatles. Howard Stern carries on and on and on about John Lennon sometimes. Loves him.

I think Dee Snider is more interesting that all of the Beatles combined, and I don't even like Twisted Sister all that much.
