MCCARTNEY 3, 2, 1 - Hulu Documentary Blu-Ray ALL SIX EPISODES As the title implies, the series focuses on the legacy of music legend Paul McCartney and his decades-long career. 2021 Six Episode Series Producer Rick Rubin interviews Paul McCartney on his work with the Beatles, Wings, and as a solo artist, including stories about his personal relationships that inspired his songwriting. In almost any other context, starting off a Beatles-related documentary with clips from their legendary 1964 Ed Sullivan Show performance would be a red flag. It’s such an instant, ubiquitous shorthand for the band that setting the stage that way feels like a cheat. Yet, deploying it is one of the first examples that the latest documentary series “McCartney 3, 2, 1” is having fun with convention and using it for its own purpose.

Staged in an empty soundstage, this pair is otherwise surrounded by a skeleton camera crew and the instruments that best show each man’s wizardry.
