Saw this one on eBay ... is this what you were looking for?
Let it Be on eBay
I remember watching the movie a lot of times years ago ... used to be on PBS somewhat regularly. But it mysteriously stopped showing up. I think that MPL Communications (which owns the rights to Help, a Hard Day's Night, Yellow Sub), pulled the release after they got the rights from United Artists. I understand that McCartney, Paul & Linda are the control behind MPL ... and the negative vibes emanating from the Beatles throughout the movie, especially the way George and Ringo were pissed at Paul, made them decide it was something that should go away quietly.
Or maybe it's just Urban Legend.
The DVDs that have been around for the past couple of years are supposedly all bootlegs ... although some are quite nicely packaged. That's why you can't find the discs in any of the normal, commercial channels. Or so I've been told.
It's still a great film about the Beatles. |

I remember it being a sweet movie. I had it on laser disk (remember those?). Still, I think it would be sweet to have an official copy on DVD. |

Does anyone besides me feel old when something based on laser technology becomes obsolete? Geez.

I'd like to get a digital home studio, but I'm afraid I won't be able to figure out how to use it - especially with the user-UNfriendly manuals that seem to come with every electronic gizmo.
Maybe I'll get my two-year-old niece to be my recording engineer! |

Location: Vernon, CT | Are you confusing the CD Let It Be - Naked which came out last year with a DVD of some sort??? By the way that CD is great without the orchestral background accompaniment. Play On!
