'Let It Be', The Beatles' 1970 documentary, will release its restored version in May

A restored version of the documentary 'Let It Be'from 1970, which follows the creation of the album of the same name by the British group The Beatles, can be seen this May for the first time in fifty years through the Disney+ streaming platform, the company reported.

Director Michael Lindsay-Hogg's film will arrive on Disney+ on May 8 and has been restored by Peter Jackson's Park Road Post Production.

Jackson premiered in 2021 on the same platform 'The Beatles: Get Back', which featured outtakes from Lindsay-Hogg's original film.

“'Let It Be' (…) takes viewers to the studio and the London rooftop of Apple Corps in January 1969when the Beatles, accompanied by Billy Preston, they compose and record 'Let It Be', their Grammy-winning album, and perform live for the last time as a group,” says the note issued by Disney+.

thanks to the song 'Let It Be' and for Lindsay-Hogg's film, the group won a Hollywood Academy Award in 1971 for best original song.

The revival comes after the success that the series brought to the platform 'The Beatles: Get Back' and with the intention of satisfying the millions of followers of the band made up of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison, dissolved in 1970.

With “the full support of Lindsay-Hogg,” Apple Corps, the corporation founded in 1968 by the Beatlesasked Park Road Post Production to carry out “a meticulous restoration” of the film from the original 16mm negative, including careful sound remastering that was applied to the 'Get Back' docuseries.

'Let It Be' was released in theaters in 1970 and released on VHS in the early 1980sbut it has never been officially released on DVD, blu-ray.
