The US vs John Lennon



You know we love food, but we also deeply love cinema; especially cinema that makes you think and that sometimes teaches you a bit of history.
I recently watched this documentary on the life of John Lennon, because I heard about it on the radio and was really happy I did. People of my generation might not be familiar with John Lennon & Yoko Ono's battles for peace: it was much more than pretty songs. They really exposed their own lives and personas for peace, they were really amazing.
All that you'll watch in this movie is still so relevant to today's world it's almost sad, as it feels that not much has changed.
I strongly recommend this movie as it is a great insight into the life of John Lennon, not just as musician, but very much as political figure. It is also an incredible journey through American contemporary history.
