A documentary about Paul McCartney's experiences in New York immediately after the September11 attacks on the city is to get its debut the day before the 10th anniversary of 9/11, U.S. cable network Showtime said on Tuesday.
Called "The Love We Make", the documentary chronicles the personal journey through a devastated New York in 2001, and the planning and preparation of a benefit concert six weeks afterward. ...Shot in black and white, the film features footage of McCartney rehearsing for the concert, clips of him talking with New Yorkers on the city streets and backstage film featuring David Bowie, Mick Jagger, former President Bill Clinton, Leonardo DiCaprio and others.
"There was so much suffering as a result of 9/11 it's hard to imagine how one might bring relief to those who were impacted by the attacks, and honor those firefighters, police officers and rescue workers who lost their lives in their heroic attempt to help others. But Paul had the answer: music and a film that would tell the full story," the documentary's director Albert Maysles said.
I THINK IT'S LIKELY TO BE A GREAT FILM AND ONE OF THE BEST THINGS MCCARTNEY HAS EVER DONE.
I'm sure it will have a "Message of "Peace", however.
