PAUL MCCARTNEY: THE LOVE WE MAKEComing up at the Whitsell Auditorium up in Portland, this film directed by Albert Maysles and Bradley Kaplan follows Paul McCartney through the streets of New York City in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attacks as he organizes an all-star benefit concert: The Concert for New York City. On the morning of September 11, McCartney was in a plane on the tarmac about to leave NYC when the attacks occurred. Grounded, he returned to the city and witnessed firsthand the shock and devastation that overtook the city. Maysles and Kaplan capture McCartney rehearsing with his band for the concert, connecting with New Yorkers on the streets, and backstage with such luminaries as David Bowie, Steve Buscemi, Eric Clapton, former President Bill Clinton, Sheryl Crow, Leonardo DiCaprio, Harrison Ford, Mick Jagger, Jay-Z, Billy Joel, Elton John, Stella McCartney, Keith Richards, James Taylor, Pete Townshend—the list goes on. In addition to the memorable concert performances, THE LOVE WE MAKE provides “one of the most chipper responses to tragedy you are ever likely to experience … alternately trite, touching, funny, and fascinating.”—New York Times. I’ve never seen this one but it certainly sounds very interesting. Not the biggest Paul McCartney fan but honestly you can’t go wrong with people like Steve Buscemi, David Bowie, Billy Joel and Jay-Z. If you’re up in P-town this weekend check it out! It’ll be screening this February 3rd, 4th and 5th.
