Mary McCartney On How ‘If These Walls Could Talk’ Brings The Storied History Of Abbey Road Vividly To Life (With A Little Help From Her Friends) – Behind The Lens
For Mary McCartney directing the enthralling documentary, If These Walls Could Sing on the history of London’s Abbey Road studio wasn’t just as a tip of the hat to her father Paul McCartney’s celebrated career, but to her own life viturally growing up there, watching musical history being made. And although Dad participates as one of the interviewees this is not just a story of The Beatles, but rather an eye and ear popping tale of a place where musical magic, on just about every level, was made, and continues to be made. The title tells it all as McCartney’s splendid documentary, which premiered at Telluride last September and is now available on Disney+, covers the waterfront of Abbey Road’s 90 years.
