www.jica.info/symbolism/See 2nd pic, "plato" under the wysteria Since the overhanging wysteria is, to me, the most remarkable image from that PW video, here is some exposition on the flower, the color, the season, and what it all could mean: www.temarikai.com/meaningofsymbolismsandcolors.htmlPaperback Writer SHOULD have been filmed when the wysteria was in full bloom. Shots, in the same locations of the garden, withOUT the wysteria MIGHT have been filmed at a different time of year........ The quick dolly swoop-over to the 4 Beatles, with wysteria above them on the benches, is, probably, then, James Paul......since the flowers are STILL in bloom in the sequence immediately following, which pans 3 BEatles but there has been a post-production edit excising Paul's face out, that MIGHT be May 66 footage as well.......30 frames removed and probably lost for good.

fabulous, medium technical article about video production, FAAB, and PW video production. millimeter.com/mag/video_compositing_basics_rotoscoping/I've learned a new term: rotoscopy. Now, let's see if I can use it correctly in a sentence. Ro-to-sco-py. Oh, yes, I overheard this once in a classy truck stop: "When we'uns is drinkin' too many soda pops on spring vacation, sometimes goin' down the road, us go pee off to the side of the highway when no cars is passin' by." Ro-to-sco-py. I debated for a while about pressing "post" or "reset", "post", or "reset", on that sad little pun. I guess I wrote a scopy subroutine. www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=scopyCrying for more? Have you had a Googless gracious plenty? Alright, alright, I'll relent. I'll go look at pictures of my good friend Rhoda's Gobi desert vacation. D'oh! |

It is so good to have Perplexed back in all his glory!!!! I hope that you really meant corny (because I surely am), but I admit to it freely as I have that crazy disease where you cope with things by being kinda corny. Well, maybe a lot corny in my case, so I must have it pretty bad. But, I am OK with it, I am facing it, no more denial, I have accepted my corniness and am moving on. Ive talken that first step and admitted that I, Perplexed, have a very corny problem. Now, they say, once corny, always corny. But, thats because being corny is a disease. Its a disease that youre born with , and the scientists say that it can never be cured, but it can be abated by practicing 12 steps, 12 principles of life. I must cope with my entire life by being corny. Its a disease people. And, the official name of the disease, ladies and gentleman, is, now remember this: Corni-cope-ia. Its about corn folks, corn of plenty. But, back to some semblance of topic (I make stabs at it now and then) the Rain video is interesting to watch, as is Paperback, in that they show the BEatles in a dimension beyond just :stand out there on any old stage and sing and play. They cast the Beatles personnas into a broader cinematic context. I feel like they indicate that, prior to the Summer of 1966, there had been a lot more movie outings planned for the FAB 4. EVentually, had JP lived, I feel that there might have been 3 or 4 more feature films, tightly scripted, directed, custom built for the Fabs. HDN and Help! surely made the movie producers plenty of money. Why for heavens sake would they have stopped making features. That makes no financial sense to me. HDN did very well. Even if Help! wasnæt quite the earning cow the HDN had been, why would they stave off making new films, and why would they pull those films out of release for a few years¿ Supply and demand. What happened to the basic business application of supply and demand¿ I think it was a basic fact: make a Beatle movie--it will probably make you some money. So, we got a cartoon instead, Yellow Sub. Charming as parts of it are.........well, whatever. |

Perplexed, I agree with you concerning the feature films. It really didn't make any business sense.
Unless, after MMT John & George just couldn't stomach the deception anymore. So, they refused to do another film with Bill.

I have to agree with Cavendish. They finished out their three film deal with a cartoon because working with Bill was nauseating to all of them......or at least John and George.
Originally, the third film was supposed to be a Western because Paul liked Western movies/shows. However, with his demise, they others wouldn't much want to do one with Bill.
Back in the 50's and 60's most of the TV shows were Westerns: Bronco Lane, Wagon Train, Cheyenne, Maverick, Sugarfoot, Rawhide [Clint Eastwood's debut],
Pondarosa, etc., and dozens more. We were raised on Western movies back then. No dirty language, no sex those things were highly taboo.

Faul did seem to upset John and George a lot more than he did Ringo.
And it seems that Faul was a lot more friendly with Ringo outside of the Beatles. In that picture of 70's Faul backstage with Ringo and his wife (and sadly WITHOUT ANY EARS), they seem to be getting along famously.
And Ringo doesn't seem at all surprised at the fact that an earless man is standing right in front of him!
Maybe there is something to the former Richard Starkey being a plant after all. Why else would he name himself after a pentagram anyway?

I don't understand what you mean. Ringo is a plant because he's jewish? Or he's... a gringo? What ? |

He's certainly not related to Striesand anyway.
Thanks for your help perplexed but i was referring to the faul and ringo 70's backstage pic where he has no ears!

I don't understand what you mean. Ringo is a plant because he's jewish? Or he's... a gringo? What ? Brian Epstein was "officially" jewish. Rumors told that Ringo was jewish too... but they were denied. I think Ringo was jewish too because the jew race didin't mix his genetics all along the History and his face feature are "all" jewish ones. Ringo was "imposed" to the Beatles from "outside". I think by the show biz jewish lobby to control Brian activity. |

Yeah, he definitely has some features that are frequently found in jewish people.
Not that it means anything, but the character "Star" on the HBO show Deadwood is the jewish guy of the show. I'm not sure what name "Star" is an abbbreviation of in that case.

I assume it would refer to the star of david in both cases, but i always thought that the pentagram star was teh evil denomenator, perhaps it refers to both.
However i find that to call him jewish is slightly naive. Ok, he could theoretically be, but to call him jewish coz he has a big nose? Come on! I mean does having a big nose make you jewish beyond doubt? BP, are you saying that Jewish people have never bred with people of any other race/ creed/ethnicity until the last few years, if ever? I find that very, very hard to believe.
