He plays in a band and has always loved the Beatles so it's an especially great experience for him, although I'm enjoying it, too.

We're not as far into it as you are--about 2/3 of the way through Part I. So far, we haven't seen Paul as bullying but as stepping into a leadership void left when Epstein died, because someone had to. I thought he was doing his best to keep people focused when they only had a few weeks to pull together an album's worth of material and a show. I did think that some of the tension may have been that he had a different creative process than they had, more hearing it in his head than finding it through noodling.

Pure magic when they are improvising or taking joy in their harmonies. I loved hearing Paul work out Let It Be on the piano while everyone else was talking about possible locations for the concert.

Maybe some people would find it a little slow-paced, but I've found every second fascinating. And the pace reflects what they went through during the rehearsal period. What a crazy amount of pressure they were under.
