Paul McCartney - Wingspan - An Intimate Portrait
Paul McCartney's account of his second famous rock band only glosses  over his personal and professional life during the 1970s, clocking in at 88  minutes. Still, choice footage and photographs, along with a McCartney interview  by daughter Mary interspersed throughout the program, make this an entertaining  history of an often unfairly maligned group.Wingspanis also a valentine  to McCartney's late wife, Linda, who was always by his side, in and out of  Wings. On his insistence, Linda became part of the band, went on tour as nominal  backup singer and keyboardist, and even sang lead on a song called "Cook of the  House," which didn't endear her or Paul to feminists. The fact remains, though,  that their marriage, which some pointed to as contributing to the Beatles'  breakup, lasted far longer than either of Paul's bands.--Kevin Filipski
