TeaFlix Interview with Simon Weitzman (Film Director)

UK film director Simon Weitzman, who has recently joined the roster of talented film and culinary professionals represented by McCartneyStudios.com

Simon Weitzman is a highly experienced and versatile network television director, producer, author, and artist whose career spans more than 35 years. Born in London and trained at the Bournemouth School of Film and Television, he has built a distinctive body of work across broadcast TV, feature documentaries, publishing, and visual art, with directing credits for BBC, HBO, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, Sky, Malaysian TV, and Disney.

In recent years, Simon has become a key creative voice in Beatles-related and music-history filmmaking. He directed the feature documentary "Miss O’Dell," telling the story of Chris O’Dell, the insider who moved from Beatles PA to tour manager for rock’s biggest bands, weaving rare archival footage with new interviews featuring Pattie Boyd, Peter Asher CBE, Bob Harris OBE, Kevin Harrington and historian Mark Lewisohn.

Simon is also the creator and director of "A Love Letter To The Beatles," described as a film made by fans, for fans, across the universe. Produced with Liverpool West Productions and David L. Simon, the feature brings together voices from global Beatles fandom — including Bob Harris OBE, Laurence Juber, Rod Davis, Julia Baird, Gary Evans, Andrew Edwards, Angie and Ruth McCartney and many more — filmed at iconic locations such as The Cavern Club, International Beatles Week, The Casbah Coffee Club, Strawberry Field and The Fest For Beatles Fans. The film celebrates the community, gratitude and creativity The Beatles continue to inspire more than 60 years on.
