Just curious. My wife was in "Anthology". She happened to be at a Beatles
ticket giveaway from radio station KRLA in Los Angeles. She was holding a
large sign that read "The Beatles are Universal". We dug through her old
photographs and found one her father had taken of her with the sign. Next we
watched the tape (a friend recorded) and froze the frame when she came into
view. Sure enough, it's her.

I remember that girl too. She was young but she was trying to say
something serious about why Paul and The Beatles were important, not only
to her but to young people; her painting, she said, represented the start
of a new era and she said that she just wanted to meet Paul and talk to him
and not to pull him apart or tear his clothes. I felt bad for her because
the idiot interviewing her cut in and said "It sounds like you have a crush
on Paul" and that's not what I think she was trying to say, but being a
good sport, she laughed and said "Yeah, you could say that's true." I also
wonder where her and others are today -- like the girl leaning on the wall
in the Cavern in the "Some Other Guy" tape, or the guy wearing glasses
standing next to Ringo in the "Hey Jude" tape. If they're trolling rmb
they should make themselves known. We'd love to share their experiences.

How did she feel when she saw herself? I watched Anthology with my mom, and
she always wondered about how the Beatlemaniacs feel now. It's a rather thought
provoking question. I remember seeing footage (not on Anthology) of a young girl


(16 at the most) who had painted a sort of abstract portrait of Paul growing out from
the ground. Where is she now? How does she feel? Embarrased? Still enthusiastic?
