No McCartney??

C'mon now.....not even able to take the time to film a 1 minute cameo for the credits? That's horseshyt. I love Paul and all his work, but that's just sad if he refused, or couldn't make time, for a woman who gave 10 years of her life supporting his career.
They filmmakers went after Ringo, and got him to do it...so I am sure Paul was asked.
Really disappointed about it.

Yes.. What's up with that?

I'll paste an excerpt from an article I've read about this movie:

McCartney even gave his blessing to the project, approving the licensing of four original Beatles songs – something that seldom happens in film

Maybe Paul simply thought Ringo had spoken for all of the Beatles and didn't feel the need to add anything.
