In Episode 355 of Things We Said Today, Ken Michaels, Allan Kozinn and Darren DeVivo interview Peter Jackson, the director of “The Beatles: Get Back” - the most anticipated Beatles project since “The Beatles Anthology,” in 1995. Mr. Jackson is also, of course, the director of the “Lord of the Rings” and “Hobbit” trilogies, and the extraordinary World War I documentary, “They Shall Not Grow Old.” And true to form, the master of film epics spent no less than four hours with us. Included is lots of new information about the film and the techniques Mr. Jackson used to make it - including demonstrations of his new AI-based audio system (MAL), which goes far beyond spectral technology in separating layers of sound within a mono recording. Lots of talk as well about the Nagra tapes, Michael Lindsay-Hogg, the power dynamic within the Beatles during the making of “Let It Be,” and other topics - and a number of mysteries Mr. Jackson still wants to get to the bottom of.

This was an historic interview. You folks should be VERY proud of yourselves. You posed excellent thoughtful questions that fans were hoping that SOMEONE would ask Peter Jackson. The beauty of this long-form interview format is that Peter Jackson was given the liberty to fully flesh-out his thoughts and ideas that the typical brief press interaction simply would not allow; and, as show-runners, you clearly were determined to give him the floor, and our undivided attention, without interruption. This is almost unheard of in today's media environment. The questions came after Jackson had exhausted everything he had to say on the given topic before him. If the documentary goes onto Blu-Ray, I hope they include this excellent presentation.....simply spectacular. Thank you very much....BRAVO!

FANTASTIC INTERVIEW!!!! The only great thing about the pandemic is it gave Peter time to create this 8 hour masterpiece rather than the previously planned 2.5 hour film...I loved every minute! Thank you for having the guts to get it done Peter, BRAVO for being a true passionate artist !!!

This is mind blowing stuff lads. Peter has to be the best interviewee I’ve ever heard. There is not one single second of what he says that isn’t totally fascinating.

@iansmith8263 2 года назад

I don't see what's fascinating about George & John sabotaging Paul's plans; George throwing his toys out the pram and being terrified of performing in front of an audience! awww bless, and John, as we all know, also hated Paul at this point, and was just putting on a face for the cameras.

One of my favorite scenes is when Ringo and friends are sitting there in the doldrums, the morning after George quit the band, and it's all heavy, and then as if on cue, in comes a florist's delivery man and he says in a tone as if someone just died, 'These are for George Harrison,' and Ringo burst out laughing because the comedic timing of that is just priceless. I loved it, like right then I knew that Ringo was thinking, 'Oh, George will be back, don't worry, we're too close as brothers for this to be the end.' And I thought any of them would've had the same reaction no matter who quit the band, they were that close.

@KevDaly 2 года назад

I was also born in 1961 in New Zealand, but having older siblings I was marinated in the Beatles from the time I was about 4 years old... Their music actually shaped my ideas of what music should saound like. When I was 5 years old I was given the Yellow Submarine/Eleanor Rigby single for Christmas. I still have it :)

Peter is such a GENUINE fan of the band, unbelievable how much he shared and as he said at the end, he really was happy to talk Beatles with people who would understand and appreciate all the nerding, lol. The post Get Back session photos he showed on his iPad, omg, mindblowing, I really, really hope that he can continue to work on stuff for Apple in the future! It's 1:45 am here in Finland, today's the day...! I will heed Mr. Jackson's advice and go to bed soon, have a nice breakfast in the morning and then watch the first part, with my heart pounding no doubt! What at time to be alive 😎

Congrats Mr. Ken Michaels & Team for this exclusive (almost free form commentary-like) Peter Jackson interview. An ABSOLUTELY integral feature to watch/listen before the Disney + festivities begin in less than 24hours. Peter Jackson is one of us; an absolute Beatles fanatic. Apple Corps could not have picked a better person than Peter for this document/restoration/preservation project. I hope dearly Apple uses his services for their film archive going forward.

Me too. I like the Beatles. They have a wide variety of song structures but other players move me more like Big Sugar and Little Feat and some White Stripes. I think Jack White's anthem Seven Army Nation proves that I am not alone in my Fandom.

@MrPonkine 2 года назад

I think overall the 3 episode documentary is brilliant. Just some observations, though: 1- When it comes as a physical Blu Ray release box, the complete performances (at least the Rooftop and January 31 takes used on 'Let it Be' album) must be included. No interruptions whatsoever. 2- A menu select for performances only. 3- More audio and video bonus. I'm talking about the music, which is by far the most important thing. Surely there's ton of outtakes and material.

@evertvdb000 2 года назад

@Clovemeister 2 года назад

Thank you all. Brilliant interview. Most enlightening. 4 hours went by in a flash!! Peter certainly conned Disney into publicising 6 hours across the 3 films when it's actually 8 hours... MORE PLEASE!! Peter just has to get the extended version up and running for sale next year.. The longer demo versions would be great. 'Eddie" has to feature - if no video of their dogs at that time, use video of their other dogs like Martha or use photos... just get "Eddie" in the mix! Let It Be upgraded by Peter would be fantastic to complement Get Back in a blu-ray package along with a CD of complete demo songs or medley that I'm sure if the mono audio can be broken down like it has been then Giles Martin really will have some great material to work with... he could cheat and iron out any bum notes too to make something really special? So the message is to Peter - get badgering Apple and Giles to pursue the above...get talking!!! And then raid the Apple film vaults to retrieve those dusty cans and recover any more studio recordings footage for say White Album, Abbey Road etc.... in my lifetime please!!!! Well done guys!! Spread the word....

@jamesdean7294 2 года назад

God bless Peter Jackson for caring as much as a huge fan - which he obviously is. I wanted to hug him when he said he didn't want to be responsible for any of it not seeing light of day for another 50 years. All this content will still matter far into the future, but it can't mean quite as much then as it has to those of us privileged to have been alive when it happened.

@GIBKEL 2 года назад

The power of pictures was triggered by the pleasure you heard and imagined. There was always so much personality that seeped through the music. My love of the Beatles started by sneaking into the record cabinet while home alone. I chose Stg. Pepper due to the technicolor cover that grabs you…then Abbey Road, Let it Be, Yellow Submarine and went backwards. Somehow The White album had been lost or never gotten. It taught me how to enjoy, how to listen then play. I can’t imagine my experience of life without them.

Can't wait to see it all 😀.

@westfield90 2 года назад

I will always be grateful to Peter Jackson for having corrected this long-standing perpetuated myth that this was one of the darkest episodes of the Beatles legacy. Instead, it a glorious story of redemption by 4 truly remarkably talented men who genuinely loved each other. Jackson let the movie speak for itself and what you witness is an unsurmountable pressure they put upon themselves, and yet they emerged with some of the greatest songs ever created. The movie truly humanizes them and shows the staggering amount of work put into creating their magic. Along the way you get to know John, Paul, George and Ringo like never before as 4 completely natural and genuinely nice people. My respect for them only grew from this movie. I’m sadden that this has been hidden for this long and we have lost so many of them - Linda, Maureen, Billy, George Martin, Mal Evans and of course George and John. Thank you Peter for doing this.

i watched the rooftop concert several times. To see them actually playing what we've heard on the Let it Be album is so incredible... I've never thought of Dig A Pony as one of John's best songs, but seeing them playing it is amazing. The interviews on the street and the cops downstairs bother a little. I hope on the blu ray, they have the concert on its own. The spit screens are great! John however was in a creative 'dip' at this point, and Paul and George were pouring out songs at will. John DID however have a great further 1969 with The Ballad of J&Y, I Want You, Give Peace A Chance, Because, Come Together, Cold Turkey. John also works on the other songs. He is absolutely not as negative as he appeared to be in the Roling Stone interview in 1970.
