NEW YORK (AP) — With a nearly 8-hour documentary series, filmmaker Peter Jackson reexamines the Beatles’ ill-fated “Let it Be” recording and film session.

That’s a contrast to the narrative that has set in that the sessions were an unpleasant experience that chronicled the Beatles’ breakup.

In the process, it brings more to life four personalities that have been part of our cultural experience for more than half a century.
