Could have been great!

This film had beautiful artistry but fell short on showing a kinder softer side of Paul. The usual Beatles successes and Wings, but failed to promote anything after. Also, the loss of Linda was blatantly/ curiously omitted! They chose to stop the timeline in 1980. He's had a way longer career that was not even discussed. Very puzzling... nothing new here!

Surprisingly good but flawed

This documentary covers Paul McCartney's career from late 1969 to early 1981 (the end of his band Wings). I was expecting something of a glossed over 'patting himself on the back' type film but it does delve a little deeper than that, covering his self doubts, brief period of heavy drinking and depression and then his struggles to resurrect his career.I felt the film could have delved a bit deeper into areas such as his post Beatle's relationships with the band members and also mentioned the controversy of his song Give Ireland Back to the Irish. It is also something of a homage to his late wife, Linda. It does address some of the criticism of her musical involvement in Wings but it was never going to be too hard on her. What we do learn is just how important she was to him during these years, that she was always there for him and her refreshingly self depreciating view of her musical ability and how some of just how important she was to him and how he always put his family first.This documentary has some great music (assuming you like his solo and Wings songs) and some contemporary and archive sound bites from not just him and Linda, but also from Denny Laine, Sean Lennon and interestingly Mick Jagger. However I would have also liked to have heard from Julian Lennon, who Paul helped a lot during this era when his father was very distant from him.The rise of Wings is addressed and is probably the most interesting thing in this film. Paul does give some very honest opinions at times and his opinion of Allen Klein (the last manager of The Beatles) is quite brutal. I must admit I had no idea that the Beatles didn't legally split until 1974 due to the contract they had all signed with Klein. The film also addresses Paul's brief spell in custody in 1980 after being caught at Tokyo airport with a big bag of marijuana in his luggage.So, there's some very interesting stuff here and some of Paul's humour does occasionally show. I really hope there's going to be a post Wings era documentary covering his 1980s career and the music he made then, including his interesting collaborations with Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson as well as his infamous movie Give My Regards to Broad Street.

The Man (on the run)

One of the greatest artists of all time-Paul McCartney. It's truly special to watch a documentary like Man on the Run featuring him still with us, sharing his personal reflections and vision from those raw, transformative post-Beatles years.The film captures that vulnerable transition period so vividly: the uncertainty after the breakup, the depression, the leap into forming Wings with Linda, and how he rebuilt his creative life on his own terms. Hearing his own voice narrate those moments-through new interviews and rare archival footage-makes it feel intimate and alive, rather than just historical hindsight.A wonderful tribute to his resilience and genius. Highly recommend it.
