The U.S. vs John Lennon DVD
"Of all the documentaries that have been made about John, this is the one he would have loved," Yoko Ono
Before Iraq, before the Bush Administration, before the Dixie Chicks, Bruce Springsteen, and Pearl Jam … there was John Lennon, the celebrated musician who used his fame and his fortune to protest against the Vietnam War and advocate for world peace.
The U.S government were so worried about the popularity and influence of this anti-war activist and inspirational icon, that they initiated a campaign to silence him.
Using fascinating archive footage and insightful interviews with those who knew him well, THE U.S VS. JOHN LENNON tells the story of that campaign. Celebrating the wonderful music that Lennon made throughout this time, and up until his tragic murder in 1980, David Leaf and John Scheinfeld's rivetting hit film THE U.S VS. JOHN LENNON will be available to buy on DVD for the first time from 2 April 2007. Buy the DVD here
Focusing primarily on the decade from 1966 - 1976, THE U.S VS. JOHN LENNON begins with Lennon's arrival in the States post-Beatles when he immediately rattled the authorities by successfully campaigning for the release of a prisoner on cannabis charges. His subsequent association with the Black Panthers and self-proclaimed revolutionaries ensured that his case eventually landed on the desk of Richard Nixon himself. Nixon's reaction was swift and harsh: to refute Lennon's visa and throw him out of the country.
