What a coincidence that on this, Lennon's birthday Oct 9, this movie seeks to rebirth the peace movement he helped to thrust into the public conscience. While the mainstream media continually played John Lennon as a sidelined superstar- a once great entertainer turned hippie wacko, the real John Lennon became enlightened to the truth. He began speaking truth to power and aligned himself with the leading voices of reform and radical change to the corruption of day. He realized his iconic star-power could be the greatest venue to create social change without complete anarchy... and so did the Nixon administration (including the young Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfelt) only they didn't want a change. Just like today only they've become much more insidious.
We need more Lennon-like leaders from the entertainment business. Speak truth to power... its not all about the brass ring and the benjamins. If everyone stands up they can't character assassinate us all! Thank you John and Yoko!
