George Harrison: Living in the Material World

Legendary director Martin Scorsese tackles the Beatles after successful documentaries about Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones. In this insightful documentary Scorsese sheds a light on the George Harrison, the most enigmatic of the fab four from his childhood in Liverpool to his rise in the Beatles and his search for spirituality that sent him on a journey until the end. Besides the archival footage and his family's cooperation, Scorsese got the most of his friends open up about Harrison. A terrific and inspirational documentary on several levels from a man's journey through life to an unique perspective on one of the greatest bands in the history, the film has plenty to offer. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
