Hey, Let's Take Classic Period Music...


...and ruin it by having talentless losers cover it while slathering some hipster *beep* narrative all over the screen!

:) You forgot to add, "And make a ton of money."

Not to mention a ton of passionate believers.

You really need to look up what "talentless" means. Like the movie or not, 'Let it Be' all by itself is worth watching the whole film for.

I don't think we saw the same movie. Everyone in the movie, especially Martin Luther, Dana Fuchs and Evan Rachel Wood, had strong singing voices. And hipster narrative? I think this is your real problem with the movie. It was set during the viet nam war and took an anti-war stance, and it seems that's what you really didn't like about it.

Hey, Let's do a jerka___ post so we can get some attention, since people don't usually pay attention to anything I say!

Wow -- there are WAY too many snide haters on this board.

You've got to be kidding, OP.

T.V. Carpio (IMO) outdid the Beatles in her wonderful a cappella version of 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.'

Jim Sturgess at least equaled -- and maybe surpassed -- George Harrison when he sang 'Something.'
