I haven’t seen Lennon on the screen since “Forest Gump”. It is good he reappeared.
Posted by Brenda at August 31, 2006 8:04 AMI look forward to seeing this, though I doubt I'll catch it in Toronto. When Canemaker was in the Bay Area at the PFA, he showed his animations of John Lennon's drawings. Yoko allowed John to make these and then, for one reason or another, kept him from showing them very often. I guess she gave him permission only for lecture events such as the one he recently did. I don't know all the details but I found it intriguing.

Would love to see those animations, Michael.
