Thank you for the updates. I really hope BBC America runs this or at the very least there is a DVD release.
Try looking 1:45-1:47 the image is spot on regarding John and Yoko's Wedding album on Apple. That pose is spot on.
I remember selling album that when I used to work in a second hand record shop back in the early 90s
;lTarot, excellent point. I think we both need to email BBC America-seems to be a lot of positive buzz about the movie, the likeness that both Eccleston and Mori have to their subjects is amazing. Sounds like this will air in the spring-can't wait!
