The Real John Lennon

[bubbles2008]

I watched a documentary the other day which a lot of you have probably seen already.

THE REAL JOHN LENNON if you haven't you can view it on you tube.

I have just been reading the posts about who do you prefer, cynthia or yoko.

I knew a lot of people blamed Yoko for john leaving his family and there was a lot of hatred towards her from the fans, and after watching that documentary I can see why. I really cried at the end for Cynthia and Johns family.


I recently visited the Dakota, it was such a sad feeling standing there where John was shot, I don't know how Yoko can still live there and walk past that spot everyday, the memory's must be....

Yes, I've seen that documentary. I felt sorry for Cynthia too, though I think it was partly John's fault as well as Yoko's. Much as I love John, I wish he had treated Cynthia and Julian better.

I had it on VHS from Lennon Night in 1999 but for some reason it got taped over by something it was good

I just watched it and it brought me to tears. Not only because of the end (which obviously makes every Lennon fan sad), but also because of how he treated Cyn, Jules and May. It's one thing to fall in love with a woman when you're already married and get divorced for her... but he could have been fairer to his ex-wife & his son. This documentary made me feel similar like Cynthias book "John".
Well anyway, I love him... after all he was wonderful in spite of all the shit he did.

I love John too. I think it's so unfair especially for Julian that he lost his father when he was 17. This was at the time they were starting to get close.

I also Love him, no matter how many things I read about how mean he could be. I wish that M.D.C would have died instead of him. It has ruined a lot of people. (sorry, I know that's mean, but you all understand)

Me too.
