Promotional film • For The Beatles

About

From The Ballad Of John And Yoko | The Beatles:

Apple Films created the promo film for the use of broadcasters worldwide to help them market the new single. It was built around outtakes from Let It Be with other private footage shot in Amsterdam, London, Paris and Vienna. In its matching of contemporary images to lyrics, this is another Beatles’ video that would inspire future pop-promo makers. Accompanying the lines, “Peter Brown called to say. You can make it OK. You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain”, is a still of Brown and Lennon. Brown who had been Brian Epstein’s assistant until his boss’s death, also acted as best man at John and Yoko’s wedding.
