Paul McCartney documentary and career reflections

Overview

The release of the documentary ‘Paul McCartney: Man on the Run’, directed by Morgan Neville, has prompted the musician to reflect on his career following the dissolution of The Beatles.

The film utilizes archival material and previously unseen footage to examine the period between 1968 and 1980, covering McCartney’s transition from the band to his solo work and the formation of Wings. McCartney has described the era following the band’s end as a time of “mourning” and a “near mental collapse,” noting that he felt as though he had been “fired” from his only known job.

During this period, McCartney retreated to a farm in Scotland to deal with isolation before eventually returning to headlining major arenas with Wings. The documentary also addresses legal disputes involving The Beatles and the murder of John Lennon.
