By the way, the "Let It Be" film is supposed to be released on DVD this year (if not already), and I haven't seen it in its entirety in over 20 years. It is a full documentation of the breakup and decomposition of a supergroup.
The three scenes that still stick out in my mind are as follows:
1) Paul trying to tell George how he wants a certain guitar solo played. This would be the exact same George who's been playing Beatles guitar solos since 1957 perfectly fine on his own. George eventually loses his cool in a Hare Krishna kind of way, and retorts, "I'll play whatever you want, and if you don't want me to play, I won't play at all."
2) The rooftop recordings, where all these staid, stoic Londoners are trying to go about their daily business while live Beatles music is sailing all around them downtown.
3) George lovingly and patiently sitting at the piano with Ringo, helping him compose "Octopus's Garden."
