Paul McCartney: Something NEW (2013)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
Very good documentary taking a look at what legend Paul McCartney has been up to the last year. The documentary not only covers the touring that he has done but the main focus is on his new album, titled "New," which is getting some of the best reviews of his career. The documentary interviews McCartney about what he wanted to do with this new album, why he needed so many different producers and what he hopes will happen once he takes this songs out on tour. Also interviewed are the current band members as well as the producers of the album. Fans of McCartney are certainly going to enjoy this documentary as its yet another that gives you a nice look behind-the-scenes as the legend lets us see what it's like recording these songs as well as the excitement he still feels before going out for a show. There's a lot of great scenes inside the studio where McCartney is working with the producers to try and see what's best for the material. There's also some great concert footage where we see the impact his music still has on people. At just 45-minutes there's certainly not enough time for a complete and full documentary but the time is certainly well spent on good topics and the interviews are fun.
