Thank you for posting. Also included on this page is an exclusive snippet of the documentary. You can hear one of the telephone taps used in the documentary, and even without context I think everyone can instantly understand why this documentary technically is a masterpiece, but also a treasure trove for us hardcore fans.

There's a wealth of unknown material included in the documentary, from which some footage or even events (!) were unknown to even the most die-hard collectors. Remind me to share an extensive overview I made, but I won't do it until everyone had a chance to see the documentary in its full glory. The documentary is so much more than a list of tapes.

But regarding above snippet of 'The Luck Of The Irish' everyone can see now: it has great sound quality and it comes from pristine looking tape. It’s a bit upscaled/smoothened but still definitely from a much better source than even the most recent official publishing which was on YouTube in 2020 (link). There’s no tape damage and no constant interference as all those circulating sources. This isn’t solely the result of digital restoration, it's a much lower generation tape. No corner of the archives got left unscorched for the recent projects, and it shows in the love and care which went into it all.

Saw the film today - wow! Fantastic, the restoration of everything is so brilliant. Really goes places, and plenty of Yoko!

One review I saw said you forget what year it is now and that’s absolutely true, you’re immersed in 1972 hope everyone gets to experience how great this film is!

Finally A Rockumentary Worth Watching | One To One: John & Yoko Review​

 

[Brian Of Nazareth]

About to enter the cinema for the film. Cannot wait and have been counting down the hours!

 

[Brian Of Nazareth]

Wow. I’m actually speechless and that’s a rare thing! It’s not what I expected. The Willowbrook part was heartbreaking and nearly had me to tears!

Well done team. Beautiful.

I have to say this about the film before my brain boils to goo and I lose my shit:
I LOVED this film. It’s a really great example of balancing entertainment/art, advocacy, and culture. I mean, the remixed music (and remastered footage) was amazingly shiny and powerful — that was worthwhile all on its own. But the production blew my mind too, especially those mesmerizing interpolations of John and Yoko’s bedroom and television commercials. Talk about archiving the moment. Culturally, too, the film serves an important role of opening dialogue on issues and eerily reflecting our current climate. There’s a phrase that floats around about art and basically it says you can’t really define it, but you know it when you see it. Well, this is art, plain and simple.
