Hello, all you Lennon fans. I have a question I hope someone old enough can remember: In the late 80's there was a made for tv movie about the lives of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. It was called "in my life" (or at least that was the theme music) It portrayed their lives from the moment they met until he was murdered, I think. Can anyone help me? What is the name of this movie, and where can I get a copy of it? It's a gift for the biggest lennon fan alive. Even bigger than me ;D
thank you so much- Groovy

I really didn't like that movie. First of all, the actors weren't that good, I didn't like the John. They also changed things about Yoko and John's relationship, such as; John having a discussing to Cyn about how hes leaving her for Yoko, and shes not just an affair. Also, John apparently used Mal Evans (I think it was him) place to bring back women for sex...one being Yoko, right after they met at the gallery. There were other inconsistencies that I can't remember, its been a really long time.
Sorry to put a damper on the thread....whats everyone else's opinion?

I agree with you. for one, it has been a loooong time since I saw the movie. and no matter who they pick, no one can really even get close to John as a character. but it's as close as I can find about the life of john without having to read about it. right?...

I guess. Well, I watched, so there you go. My fav John movie is Imagine, the documentary. I know it off by heart by now. I believe its on Youtube if you don't download movies.

It's ok I just find it odd that John has his 1968 hairstyle right through to 1980 when he had different hairstyles

You can buy it anywhere, amazon, eBay, HMV, Walmart etc. There is also a special edition. You could download it as well. It came out in 1988 (the month I was born It is narrated by John(through interviews etc). There are interviews with Cynthia, Julian, Sean, Yoko, May, Mimi, Elliot, Idn who else. It goes though his whole life. There is a lot of new footage, well not new, unseen before then I guess. It is the best documentary ever in my opinion. I might post it when I have a chance.
