He was the inspiration for Beatles haircut. Unfortunately he passed away in early 1962 due to a brain hemmorhage)

Are there any video recordings of The Beatles discussing Stuart Sutcliffe?
I know there are audio/ written mentions of him by the Fab Four (and Pete Best) but wondered if they've ever discussed him on film/ tape. Been curious about this lately!
Happy birthday to Stuart Sutcliffe, who would have been 80 years old today (6-23-1940)
I named him Paul but wanted to name him Stu originally because my face claim for him is Stuart Sutcliffe of the Beatles (RIP). What did y'all named your Noah?
TIL when Stuart Sutcliffe left The Beatles to pursue his artistic interests, he was so good at it that his professor, noted pop artist Eduardo Paolozzi, called him one of his best students. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stu…

Question on Stuart Sutcliffe
Let's play pretend for a moment. What if Stuart Sutcliffe joined back with the Beatles (pretending he didn't do well at an art career, even though he was great at it) and never died. Do you think he would've been sacked along with Pete Best? Or would his stronger friendship with the band members allow him to stay, but only for live shows? (They actually considered using Ringo for albums and tracks only, and Best for live shows because it was harder to tell the difference between them live). Or maybe Stuart would be a road manager?

RIP - Astrid Kirchherr, the Beatles first photographer & close friend (who also gave them the distinctive mop-top haircuts). Her striking photos are classics. She "got" the Beatles before the world did and fell in love with Stuart Sutcliffe who would die tragically young.
TIL that Pete Best was not the first member to drop out of the Beatles. Their original bassist (who helped come up with the band’s name), Stuart Sutcliffe, left to pursue a career in art before soon dying of a brain hemorrhage. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stu…

BACKBEAT Movie (Stuart Sutcliffe)
I just finished watching it and i really liked it! The actors are very similar to the beatles, specially Stuart and Paul! But, what parts were fictional? For example (spoiler just in case anyone wants to watch it!), there is a scene at the end when Stuart breaks everything bc he’s jealous of Klaus and he even hits Astrid. Another scenes in the film are about Stuart’s cause of death, telling us it was a brian haemorrhage caused by drugs, but, as far as i know this is not confirmed at all? Does anyone know?
TIL that Astrid Kirchherr, photographer associated with the early days of The Beatles in Hamburg and girlfriend of original bass player Stuart Sutcliffe, later married the drummer who replaced Ringo in Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. Today she lives alone and has a photography shop in Hamburg. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ast…
