The film observes the Beatles (John Lennon,Paul McCartney,George HarrisonandRingo Starr) from a \"fly on the wall\" perspective, without narration, scene titles, or interviews with the main subjects. The first portion of the film shows the band rehearsing on asound stageatTwickenham Film Studios. The songs are works in progress, with discussions among the band members about ways to improve them. At one point, McCartney and Harrison have an uncomfortable exchange, with McCartney criticising a guitar riff played by Harrison on \"Two of Us\". Harrison responds: \"I\'ll play whatever you want me to play, or I won\'t play at all if you don\'t want to me to play. Whatever it is that will please you, I\'ll do it.\" Also appearing areMal Evans, providing the hammer blows on \"Maxwell\'s Silver Hammer\", andYoko Ono, dancing with Lennon.

The Beatles are then shown individually arriving atAppleheadquarters, where they begin the studio recording process with Harrison singing \"For You Blue\" while Lennon plays slide guitar. Starr and Harrison are shown working on the structure for \"Octopus\'s Garden\" and then demonstrating it forGeorge Martin.Billy Prestonaccompanies the band on impromptu renditions of severalrock and rollcovers, as well as Lennon\'s improvised jam \"Dig It,\" whileLinda Eastman\'sdaughterHeatherplays around the studio. Lennon is shown listening as McCartney expresses his concern about the band\'s inclination to stay confined to the recording studio. The Beatles conclude their studio work with complete performances of \"Two of Us\", \"Let It Be\", and \"The Long and Winding Road\".

For the final portion of the film, the Beatles and Preston are shown giving anunannounced concertfrom the studio rooftop. They perform \"Get Back,\" \"Don\'t Let Me Down,\" \"I\'ve Got a Feeling,\" \"One After 909,\" and \"Dig a Pony,\" intercut with reactions and comments from surprised Londoners gathering on the streets below. The police eventually make their way to the roof and try to bring the show to a close, as the show was disrupting businesses\' lunch hour nearby. This prompts some ad-libbed lyrical asides from McCartney: during the second performance of \'Get Back,\' he sings, \"Get back, Loretta... you\'ve been out too long, Loretta... you\'ve been playing on the roofs again... and your mummy doesn\'t like that... it makes her angry... she\'s gonna have you arrested! Get back, Loretta!\". In response to the applause from the people on the rooftop after the final song, McCartney says, \"Thanks Mo!\" (to Ringo\'s wife Maureen) and Lennon quips, \"I\'d like to say \'thank you\' on behalf of the group and ourselves, and I hope we passed the audition!\"- en.wikipedia.org
