- Timeline More from year 1970
About
Monday May 18 At 10:30am, two days before the UK premiere, Let It Be receives its first ever public screening, for the benefit of the press and close friends, at the London Pavilion in Piccadilly Circus. When asked about the film, George later admits that the film does not bear well with him. “There are scenes in it like the roof top concert that was good, but most of it makes me so aggravated … I can’t watch it, ’cos it was a particularly bad experience that we were having at that time and it’s bad enough having it, let alone having it filmed and recorded so you’ve got to watch it for the rest of your life. I don’t like it!”
