After hearing his mother call him, Rupert excitedly rushes home to tell his family about what he saw.McCartney had been planning his Rupert movie since at least the early 1970s, when his company, McCartney Productions Ltd., acquired the rights to the film the day after the Beatles breakup. At one point, the song Little Lamb Dragonfly, which was recorded in 1971 and released on the 1973 album Red Rose Speedway, was intended for the film. ........
