An original documentary by Matthew Hawes that gives a detailed an insightful look into one of the most bizzare chapters of Beatles history.
Was the Beatle Paul McCartney really killed in an automobile accident in 1966 and replaced by a lookalike? Did the remaining three Beatles then plant cryptic and hidden messages into the songs and album covers to some of their later albums? Was it all one big marketing scheme, or did it spring from the minds of enthusiastic fans?
Follow along, listen and look at the many clues, and see what conclusions you come to about this fascinating subject.
Who was the Walrus? -- Or is it just CRANBERRY SAUCE?
Written, edited, produced and directed by Matthew Hawes

I know this isn't a definitive argument in favour of or against the death of Paul McCartney, but if you start looking for death in any body of artwork you will find it everywhere, the same way you will find sex everywhere, because sex and death, that is what life is all about, and that's the origin of our anguish of living. Art is meant to cope with that anguish by treating its origin. If The Beatles had missed that point, they wouldn't have created the music that made them artists of universal everlasting value.
