Man On The Run

Tonight I went to the Dendy Cinema in Coorparoo to see the documentary movie about iconic musician Paul McCartney with Wings and talks about the break up of the Beatles, his marriage to Linda Eastman which they would have 3 children as adopting Linda's daughter Heather, releasing his first 2 solo albums McCartney and Ram, forming Wings in 1971 with Linda , Denny Laine, Henry McCullough and Denny Seiwell who would achieve the great success throughout the 70's with albums including Band On The Run and Back To The Egg as well as the hits including My Love, Mary Had A Little Lamb, the line up changes, touring the world and many others as well as besides from Paul McCartney interviews with Mick Jagger, his brother Michael McCartney, surviving Wings members including Denny Seiwell, Steve Holley and Laurence Juber, 2 of Paul's daughters Mary and Stella and archival interviews with Linda, Denny Laine, Jimmy McCulloch and Henry McCullough. It is AMAZING, AWESOME and BRILLIANT with BRILLIANT and FANTASTIC stories as well as archival footage which looked amazing and it is well worth seeing which it will be shown on Sunday which to those in Brisbane it will be shown at Graceville. It is directed by Morgan Neville who also produced it with Chloe Simmons, Meghan Walsh, Scott Chappell, Michele Anthony and David Blackman. This is a must for fans of Wings fans and I give it 5 stars as it will be shown on Sunday which I already said about Brisbane which will be shown at Graceville at the Five Star Cinema if you want to see so do yourselves and SEE IT which you will be impressed and amazed.
