Good Ol' Freda

Never been a huge Beatles fan, but this doc looked worthwhile. And it most certainly was.

Freda Kelly was the secretary to the Beatles for their whole career. She's a wonderful woman. Clearly very warm, sincere, and loyal. Also; very private.

Freda's still a secretary to this day. But she doesn't really talk about her "past life" working for the Beatles in the 60's. She's incredibly fond of the time, but she doesn't live in the past. Anyway, mortality rears its head and you realize you gotta do something. Freda knew if she didn't tell her story now then she'd never get around to it. She wanted her grandkids to know about their grandmother's amazing life and her incredibly close relationship to the biggest band in the history of the world. Hence, this documentary was born.

This is a well done doc. It's very touching. It's woven together well. Very entertaining stuff. But most of all it's just a great down-to-earth, human story. It's light-hearted, but definitely moving. I dug it.

Stream it on Netflix. It's good shit, man.

Tarrah!
