Rather than spin a traditional Beatles story, Scorsese went for a slightly unorthodox narrative. Why not examine the Beatles through the lens of its most elusive member, guitarist George Harrison?

It's no mean feat to have assembled such a lucid biography from hours of footage.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 1, 2018

George Harrison: Living in the Material World covers every twist and turn in Harrison's 58 years on this Earth.

| Jan 24, 2018

Despite the shagginess, Scorsese mostly stays focused on Harrison as a reflection of his fans, eternally searching for something elusive - something that only came around occasionally.

| Original Score: B | Aug 6, 2012

History may now be more inclined to view the progressive Harrison as not the quiet Beatle but the cool one.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 6, 2012

Scorsese makes it into something more than a three-plus hour rehash of an oft-told tale.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 6, 2012

A film that sheds a lot of light on its subject but at times can be a little too blissed out for its own good.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 6, 2012

It's a seductive and moving scrapbook made with an outward artistry and an inward conventionality.

| Aug 6, 2012

Perhaps all things must pass, but I would not pass this one up.

| Aug 6, 2012

This is one of the most ambitious and daring biographical films that I have ever seen on 온라인카지노추천.

| Aug 6, 2012

By removing the edges that gave the man's life some bite, Martin Scorsese hasn't done George Harrison's legacy any favors.

| Aug 6, 2012

It's not a film one particularly expected to be made but it's a vastly welcome one.

| Aug 6, 2012

It is exhaustive and loopy and it takes two nights to watch.

| Aug 6, 2012

You'd like to think that being one of the Beatles had to be more fun than this long and surprisingly dry Martin Scorsese documentary makes it seem.

| Aug 6, 2012

Olivia Harrison's honesty contributes mightily to Scorsese's portrait of an artist more interesting than some of us may have realized.

| Aug 6, 2012

A convoluted mass of contradictory characteristics, with a little Vaseline on the lens to blur some of the less comfortably explained pieces of the story.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 6, 2012

A long, lovely meditation on the Beatle sometimes called the Quiet One and the quiet one sometimes called a Beatle.

| Aug 6, 2012

This insightful documentary finds that there was more to Harrison than his much-touted spiritual side. [It's] a little long, but it is full of great insight that Beatles fans will find fascinating.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 1, 2012

Its trove of unseen treasures is required viewing for fans, but the majority of time spent on Beatlemania and his spiritual pursuits over nearly four hours leaves viewers with as many questions about George Harrison as when they came in.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 30, 2011

Modest and leisurely, albeit exhaustive and insightful, this would have been even better with extended music sequences.
