Martin Scorsese / George Harrison Documentary airs on HBO in October
A new 3-1/2 hour George Harrison documentary, “George Harrison: Living in the Material World”, will air it in two parts October 5 and 6 on HBO. The documentary features home movies, interviews and never before seen material and is produced by Oscar-winner Martin Scorsese and Harrison’s widow Olivia.
“George Harrison: Living in the Material World”, traces the life of the late Beatle from his musical beginnings in Liverpool to his fame with the Fab Four in the 1960s as well as his work as a philanthropist and filmmaker.
The documentary includes interviews with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr as well as Eric Clapton, Yoko Ono, Phil Spector and record producer George Martin, among others.
Some what related: While researching about this doc, I came across this youtube video from the Phil Spector’s documentary ”The Agony and the Ecstasy of Phil Spector” – which I will be piratebaying asap . The producer sheds some light on Scorsese’s use of “Be My Baby” in 1973′s “Mean Streets,” as well as Brian Wilson going crazy (yes, we know this, duh, thanks - lolz) over how Phil achieved the “Be My Baby” sound.
