Review of The U.S. vs. John Lennon (2006) by Edward S — 03 Oct 2008
This documentary put focus on John Lennon's thoughts on the world's peace, and his influence to politics, especially US politics.
John supported peace movement (it's in "Give Peace A Chance" song).
He cleverly used what he knew best : songs and media to get his message around the world.
He also maintained relationship with left wing activists. This made him sneaking into the list of 'enemies of the state'.
Several important people gave their opinion, experience, and thoughts on this movie, such as Ron Kovic (the author of "Born on the Fourth of July"), Noah Chomsky, Angela Davis (woman activist that can make John Lennon and Rolling Stone wrote songs referenced to her), Carl Bernstein (the man who revealed Watergate scandal).
So, you will hear very many good, clever and bold quotes from these people.
Verdict : Truly a gem for John Lennon fans. Nice songs to. Beatles Anthology continued...
