Imagine Imagine

This British documentary goes beyond a straightforward analysis of John Lennon's 'Imagine' and its global repercussions; it is an exploratory portrait of how John and Yoko's art and songs have touched people across the world and from all walks of life. As such, it deserves broader recognition and could be considered part of the Beatles canon. The footage spans everything from a John Lennon Museum in Japan to a John Lennon elementary school in Liverpool, and it traces his influence on the thinking of a former Communist from Georgia (of the former USSR). It is provocative and exceptionally well made, with a serious contribution from Yoko Ono.
