I try

All right!

I remember the song from the late summer-early fall of 1971...it was on the radio all of the time. Huge debut. I thought it funny at the time that the title was same as the snippet from Let It Be.

A thing that's great to remmember is that "Let It Be"(the movie) won the Academy Awards for the best soundtrack...who received the Oscar at that time?? I'm always curious about that...

According to imdb.com, it was Quincy Jones who accepted it on their behalf, see here.

imdb.com is one of my favourite websites - Leonard Maltin can pack his bags, there's no need for him or the Halliwell's film guide any longer. Imdb is where it's at!

Yeah, exactly. If a piece of info about movies and such can't be found on imdb, it can't be found anywhere! :mrgreen:

One of my favourite things about Imdb is when I click on an actor / actress, and I can read lots of trivia facts about them, and things like their height, whether they're married with children etc.

Just clicking on actors' names, takes me on a journey, gliding from one career to another, into different genrea...I can go from Johnny Depp to Bela Lugosi to Robert DeNiro to Uma Thurman and in that short time, read about all kinds of movies and what people thought of it. It's a great site.

I agree with this user on imdb.com regarding the Let It Be film:

Now that the original album has been re-mixed to take out the Spector influence, I think it's high time the film was made available in some format, or show it again on television, it must be 25 years since it was last aired. PLEASE DO SOMETHING!!!!!
