Andrei Ujică’s TWST / Things We Said Today is an archival footage documentary about the 1965 weekend The Beatles arrived in New York City to perform at Shea Stadium.
The footage looks fantastic and the added animation and voice-over transform it into a poetic time capsule. It is less about The Beatles and more about the city and the people at that moment.
It will entertain and move anyone who lived through that time and those interested in documentary filmmaking that steps outside its usual norms.
