it would have been pretty hard to surprise us hard core fans with new information on brian at this point
can't wait to see it just for the new footage

The reality is we will never have 'the truth', all we have is fragments of memories affected by the fluctuating range of human emotions and the passing of time.
Brian's pov about all of the things said about him since 1969 is rather obviously missing.

The most poignant clip was of an American interviewer asking Brian about writing the band's songs. I'd never seen that before and Brian's slightly fumbling reaction spoke volumes about the power shift in the band that occurred in 1965.

I think he's quite chill and honest about it really. However, previously, it looked so awkward due to editing...
Here it is as presented in the Brian documentary:
