Oscar-Nominated Short Film “I Met the Walrus” (John Lennon Interview)

Back in 1969, a 14 year old kid (Jerry Levitan) with a reel-to-reel tape recorder showed up at John Lennon’s hotel room and got to interview him.

It’s amazing how what John Lennon has to say about corporate opposition to the peace movement is just as true now as it was 40 years ago. Likewise, his message of activism is still just as relevant. After watching this film, I felt sad that we lost such a great mind because of a psycho with a handgun.
