*: {{fmt/quote|Inexplicably, Yoko Ono is there.}} ...inexplicably?
 +
*: {{fmt/quote|"Why is she there?" I pleaded with my television set.}} ...because she and John are in love and want to be together?
 +
*: {{fmt/quote|Michael Lindsay-Hogg, the hapless director of the original documentary}} Peter Jackson repeatedly praised his work.

*: {{fmt/quote|Of course her appearance in the studio is obtrusive. The fact that she is not there to directly influence the band’s recordings only makes her behavior more ridiculous. To deny this is to sap her of her power.}} omg. Who is this douchebag. Amanda Hess... that name sounds familiar... Just checking the two pieces I had filed on her, she's normally on the sensible side.
 +
*: {{fmt/quote|A "mundane" task becomes peculiar when you choose to perform it in front of Paul McCartney’s face as he tries to write "Let It Be." When you repeat this for 21 days, it becomes astonishing.}} Wow. Like, it's not ok to do anything else, quietly, while a band is recording? (Also, "in front of [his] face?" Yoko never once got in Paul's face, nor anyone else's except John, which was usually to give him a kiss.)
 +
*: {{fmt/quote|Ono simply never leaves. She refuses to decamp to the sidelines, but she also resists acting out stereotypes; she appears as neither a doting naïf nor a needling busybody. Instead she seems engaged in a kind of passive resistance, defying all expectations of women who enter the realm of rock genius.}} ....isn't that a good thing?
