We’ve had the trailer but here is the first clip from the brand new documentary directed by Martin Scorsese focusing on George Harrison which has the title, George Harrison: Living the Material World. The documentary focuses around Harrison who was in the band The Beatles and who died 29th November 2001.
The 3 and a half hour documentary uses interviews with Eric Clapton, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, George Martin, Paul McCartney, Yoko Ono, Tom Petty, Phil Spector, Ringo Starr and Jackie Stewart to look at a life of a fascinating man.
We’ve posted a list of cinemas that are showing the documentary that you can see here. Understandably, the movie won’t go on general release but will be available on DVD and Blu-ray 10th October and you can order your copy here.
GEORGE HARRISON: LIVING IN THE MATERIAL WORLD focuses the imaginative and inspired eye of one of cinema’s most preeminent filmmakers on one of the world’s most influential men. The film takes viewers on the musical and spiritual voyage that was George Harrison’s life, much of it told in his own words. The result is deeply moving and touches each viewer in unique and individual ways. Academy Award®-winning director Martin Scorsese traces Harrison’s life from his musical beginnings in Liverpool through his life as a musician, a seeker, a philanthropist and a filmmaker, weaving together interviews with Harrison and his closest friends, performances, home movies and photographs. Much of the material in the film has never been seen or heard before. The result is a rare glimpse into the mind and soul of one of the most talented artists of his generation and a profoundly intimate and affecting work of cinema.
