PAUL McCARTNEY: “YOU ARE THE GREATEST DRUMMER IN THE WORLD. REALLY”

Beatles fans around the world commemorated the 57th anniversary of their final live performance—the legendary rooftop concert atop Apple Records. Captured in Get Back and memorialized in Let It Be, this moment was their live swan song, a testament to creative courage and collaboration. On January 31, 1969, Paul McCartney sent Ringo Starr a postcard that read:

“You are the greatest drummer in the world. Really.”

This wasn’t a public accolade or a grand gesture. It was a handwritten note— A small moment, but a significant one.

January 31st marked the final official filming session for the Get Back/Let It Be recording sessions. Ringo was about to begin filming the movie The Magic Christian alongside Peter Sellers; since it was likely this would take up a significant amount of his time, Paul may have chosen that moment to send the note.

To this day, the exact context of this congratulatory missive remains unknown. Paul might have assumed Ringo would be busy for a while and sent it then (though, as it turned out, Ringo actually had most of his evenings free for the band). It is also unknown whether Paul sent similar notes of appreciation to John and George.

PAUL AND LINDA McCARTNEY ATTEND A 1974 GEORGE HARRISON CONCERT IN DISGUISE

BARRY KEOGHAN’s LOOK AS RINGO STARR REVEALED

Cameras are officially rolling on Sam Mendes’ ambitious four-film Beatles saga, and Barry Keoghan has already begun his metamorphosis into Ringo Starr.

Making an appearance at a recent premiere, the actor debuted a classic mop-top haircut, signaling he is fully prepared to step into the shoes of the legendary drummer.

The project, backed by Sony Pictures, recently offered a more detailed glimpse into the production by unveiling the first official images of its lead quartet.

This star-studded lineup features Harris Dickinson as John Lennon, Paul Mescal as Paul McCartney, and Joseph Quinn as George Harrison, alongside Keoghan’s Ringo.

Beyond the core four, the ensemble includes a talented supporting cast portraying the pivotal women in the band's history:

Actor	Role
Saoirse Ronan	Linda McCartney
Anna Sawai	Yoko Ono
Aimee Lou Wood	Pattie Boyd
Mia McKenna-Bruce	Maureen Starkey

Unlike a standard biopic, this project consists of four distinct feature films, each told from the perspective of a different band member.

These individual narratives will intertwine to chronicle the full scope of the Fab Four's legacy.

Audiences won't have to wait long between chapters, as all four movies are scheduled to hit theaters simultaneously in April 2028.
