1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:07,000


2
00:00:04,104 --> 00:00:07,574
John Lennon is a great
he was a genius songwriter.

3
00:00:07,907 --> 00:00:10,910
It defines an entire era,
magical person.

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,000


5
00:00:10,977 --> 00:00:11,978
IMAGINE IT

6
00:00:12,045 --> 00:00:15,015
A working-class kid from Liverpool.

7
00:00:15,081 --> 00:00:17,183
It was one of the original singularities of the century,

8
00:00:17,250 --> 00:00:18,618
it's not even a question.

9
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:21,087
The Beatles were a musical revolution.

10
00:00:22,322 --> 00:00:24,090
It was a fight. Radical.

11
00:00:24,157 --> 00:00:26,626
He became a peace activist.

12
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:30,463
He said a lot
in which many people believed.

13
00:00:30,530 --> 00:00:33,166
He was born differently to a generation,

14
00:00:33,233 --> 00:00:35,468
Like no one else before.

15
00:00:35,535 --> 00:00:37,937
There were those who did
they related to

16
00:00:38,004 --> 00:00:40,807
to fame,
but others seemed to want to own it.

17
00:00:40,874 --> 00:00:42,375
-Who did you shoot?
-John Lennon.

18
00:00:42,442 --> 00:00:44,911
John Lennon was shot in New York tonight.

19
00:00:44,978 --> 00:00:45,979
JOHN LENNON WAS KILLED

20
00:00:46,046 --> 00:00:47,580
An unspeakable tragedy.

21
00:00:47,647 --> 00:00:49,749
I asked:
"Did you realize what you did?"

22
00:00:49,816 --> 00:00:53,653
He said, "I killed myself."
He said, "I'm John Lennon."

23
00:00:56,756 --> 00:00:59,492
People came out here
They sing Beatles songs.

24
00:00:59,559 --> 00:01:01,061
We want to feel close

25
00:01:01,127 --> 00:01:03,129
to the man who had an impact on lives.

26
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:05,365
That's how much people loved John Lennon.

27
00:01:05,432 --> 00:01:07,700
His music enchanted him even better
the happy times.

28
00:01:07,767 --> 00:01:10,370
His music made it more bearable
the hard days.

29
00:01:10,437 --> 00:01:12,105
If she hadn't looked so beautiful,

30
00:01:12,172 --> 00:01:13,640
it doesn't hurt so much.

31
00:01:13,706 --> 00:01:16,609
Now, 40 years later

32
00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:20,080
we will talk about him and the musician.

33
00:01:38,665 --> 00:01:42,836
My role in society,
and, like other artists or poets,

34
00:01:42,902 --> 00:01:45,672
to try to express
which we all feel.

35
00:01:45,738 --> 00:01:48,408
Not like a preacher
or a driver,

36
00:01:48,475 --> 00:01:51,111
more than all of us
reflection.

37
00:01:54,180 --> 00:01:56,282
John was someone who

38
00:01:56,349 --> 00:01:58,318
who was always one step ahead.

39
00:01:58,852 --> 00:02:01,721
His songs were always about the truth.

40
00:02:02,755 --> 00:02:04,524
I once asked you

41
00:02:04,591 --> 00:02:07,193
what is the secret of great songwriting success.

42
00:02:07,260 --> 00:02:11,264
He said, "You know the truth
and you take it to me."

43
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:13,900
I woke up when I was young,

44
00:02:13,967 --> 00:02:16,002
that love is the answer.

45
00:02:16,069 --> 00:02:19,005
I wrote to express this
the title "The Word".

46
00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:31,518
He knows that "the word is love"
not only the universe,

47
00:02:31,584 --> 00:02:34,754
but everything is rare
was his basic idea.

48
00:02:38,124 --> 00:02:39,993
Who was John Lennon?

49
00:02:41,394 --> 00:02:45,732
Once upon a time, it really was John Lennon
the most famous rock and roll music

50
00:02:45,798 --> 00:02:48,334
and perhaps the hottest artist
all over the world.

51
00:02:51,137 --> 00:02:53,540
I remember seeing the Beatles
from Ed Sullivan,

52
00:02:53,606 --> 00:02:55,708
and completely hidden.

53
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:09,689
The Beatles, which is a short biography
started as a form in Liverpool,

54
00:03:09,756 --> 00:03:13,493
How did he become a director without a projector?
among bands aimed at young people.

55
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,895
Founded and led by John Lennon

56
00:03:15,962 --> 00:03:18,131
They were also members of the Beatles
Paul McCartney

57
00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:20,400
George Harrison and Ringo Starr.

58
00:03:21,034 --> 00:03:22,402
and they arrived

59
00:03:22,468 --> 00:03:25,471
in the United States
after their victorious tour.

60
00:03:25,538 --> 00:03:28,741
You could not exist in the sixties,
when the baby was born,

61
00:03:28,841 --> 00:03:30,009
and hanging out with friends

62
00:03:30,076 --> 00:03:32,612
that you didn't scare me from the outside
all the Beatles.

63
00:03:32,679 --> 00:03:34,881
Why do you like the Beatles in particular?

64
00:03:34,948 --> 00:03:38,184
I like the music, the way they look,
their hair and appearances.

65
00:03:38,251 --> 00:03:40,687
- They seem more like girls to me!
- It's not true!

66
00:03:41,287 --> 00:03:43,523
This was the story
his greatest band.

67
00:03:43,590 --> 00:03:45,558
They shaped rock music.

68
00:03:45,625 --> 00:03:47,193
They changed pop culture.

69
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,130
At the beginning of Beatlem�nia,
in the sixties

70
00:03:51,531 --> 00:03:53,733
young man is useless
he came screaming.

71
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,368
Forty young people arrived,

72
00:03:55,435 --> 00:03:57,870
but according to the powers
some just complained,

73
00:03:57,937 --> 00:03:59,872
to get through the fence,

74
00:03:59,939 --> 00:04:02,008
and get closer to their rooms.

75
00:04:03,876 --> 00:04:05,678
John Lennon was the smart one.

76
00:04:05,745 --> 00:04:07,180
Paul McCartney is the cutie.

77
00:04:07,247 --> 00:04:09,449
George Harrison was the quiet one.

78
00:04:09,515 --> 00:04:11,584
And Ringo Starr is the second cutie.

79
00:04:11,651 --> 00:04:13,653
John was my favorite with the Beatles.

80
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,756
He was cheeky, you know
that's real rock and roll sr�c.

81
00:04:16,889 --> 00:04:18,591
How long will they stay in Montana?

82
00:04:18,658 --> 00:04:20,627
I have no idea.
I didn't even know we were here.

83
00:04:20,793 --> 00:04:23,129
In this sense,
looking back today

84
00:04:23,196 --> 00:04:24,430
in other words,

85
00:04:24,497 --> 00:04:26,699
we consider him the punk guy
in the Beatles.

86
00:04:29,669 --> 00:04:32,939
He was too intellectual for Beatlemen.

87
00:04:33,473 --> 00:04:36,442
The choice of reasons, the contests,

88
00:04:36,876 --> 00:04:40,613
as I was received every time,
absolutely repulsed him.

89
00:04:41,414 --> 00:04:43,383
John found it so offensive,

90
00:04:43,449 --> 00:04:46,219
that they don't listen to the Beatles' music.

91
00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:50,757
In 1964, they even shot a film,

92
00:04:50,823 --> 00:04:53,459
in which they are depicted
the Beatlemania hysterics.

93
00:04:53,526 --> 00:04:54,961
The end of a hard day.

94
00:04:55,028 --> 00:04:57,030
We participated in many things,

95
00:04:57,096 --> 00:04:59,599
we worked hard

96
00:04:59,666 --> 00:05:02,001
we shot a movie, went on tour,

97
00:05:02,068 --> 00:05:04,003
We appeared in many TV shows, and the rest...

98
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:06,205
During that time, we traveled the world.

99
00:05:06,272 --> 00:05:07,840
There was no time to think.

100
00:05:09,108 --> 00:05:12,145
For John, that's all
It was a real and uplifting experience.

101
00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:17,317
His popularity is on the rise

102
00:05:17,383 --> 00:05:20,153
It says "Help",
that is, the number "Help".

103
00:05:20,687 --> 00:05:22,755
This is our best song.

104
00:05:22,822 --> 00:05:24,791
The Beatles released the Help c�mu album

105
00:05:24,857 --> 00:05:27,694
the Blackpool Night Out
made it popular in the TV series.

106
00:05:37,270 --> 00:05:39,772
"Help" is a call for help.

107
00:05:44,911 --> 00:05:47,280
There was a lot of uncertainty.

108
00:05:47,347 --> 00:05:49,482
No matter how famous you are,

109
00:05:49,549 --> 00:05:52,151
or how many people loved and adored him,

110
00:05:52,218 --> 00:05:54,887
never felt loved
he did not feel safe.

111
00:05:55,755 --> 00:05:58,324
He thought he was not loved even as a child,

112
00:05:58,391 --> 00:06:00,593
because his mother left him

113
00:06:00,660 --> 00:06:04,731
from the older one,
From John's aunt Mimi.

114
00:06:05,264 --> 00:06:08,201
Mimi's aunt reported
the erot in life.

115
00:06:09,535 --> 00:06:14,240
When John's mother died,
John was 16 years old.

116
00:06:16,676 --> 00:06:18,711
Years later

117
00:06:18,778 --> 00:06:21,581
it turned out to be a pop star

118
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:23,883
does not fill the urn.

119
00:06:23,950 --> 00:06:27,453
It didn't relieve the pain,
which defined his life.

120
00:06:29,288 --> 00:06:33,393
He found meaning and purpose in Yoko.

121
00:06:33,459 --> 00:06:37,630
Yoko Ono was an artist from New York,
who lived in London at the time.

122
00:06:37,697 --> 00:06:40,032
In 1966, he met Eloser Yok�.

123
00:06:40,967 --> 00:06:42,535
He fell in love with her.

124
00:06:42,602 --> 00:06:45,004
They were already married to Cynthia then.

125
00:06:46,272 --> 00:06:49,909
John died at an early age,
even at the time of the Beatles' start.

126
00:06:49,976 --> 00:06:51,844
They had a son, Julian.

127
00:06:53,679 --> 00:06:57,083
But she fell in love with a Japanese artist,

128
00:06:57,150 --> 00:07:00,753
while he was married and had a child.

129
00:07:00,820 --> 00:07:06,092
It's hard to see how radical they are
it rained in '68.

130
00:07:06,159 --> 00:07:08,861
John Lennon,
and his girlfriend, Yoko Ono.

131
00:07:08,928 --> 00:07:10,997
John! It's horrible!

132
00:07:11,063 --> 00:07:12,865
Cyntha is better than her!

133
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:15,601
The girl next to me said:
"Cynthia is better than her."

134
00:07:15,668 --> 00:07:17,703
- Cynthia is John Lennon's wife.
-We hate Yok!

135
00:07:17,770 --> 00:07:19,906
Yoko Ono is his girlfriend.

136
00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:24,444
Yoko Ono was a rebel and a trouble maker.

137
00:07:24,510 --> 00:07:29,048
Next to him, he could be such a person
the way he always wanted to be.

138
00:07:29,649 --> 00:07:33,152
Yoko had such an effect on him,
because when they met

139
00:07:33,219 --> 00:07:35,421
Yoko said, "You can be yourself.

140
00:07:35,488 --> 00:07:37,223
"You don't always have to say yes."

141
00:07:37,290 --> 00:07:40,159
"Just do what you want.
If you're going for real art..."

142
00:07:40,226 --> 00:07:43,029
According to John, the art was
what Yoko did.

143
00:07:43,095 --> 00:07:46,065
Collages, performance art
and similar to this.

144
00:07:46,132 --> 00:07:50,002
It didn't occur to John that a song
for example "Norwegian Wood", art.

145
00:07:50,069 --> 00:07:51,270
But it was art.

146
00:08:00,513 --> 00:08:03,683
"I Wanna Hold" led the way
From "Your Hand" to "Eleanor Rigby".

147
00:08:03,749 --> 00:08:05,418
What direction is the music going in?

148
00:08:05,685 --> 00:08:08,187
We're just trying to move forward

149
00:08:08,254 --> 00:08:10,923
but people seem to
they want to hold us back.

150
00:08:12,492 --> 00:08:13,693
The Beatles.

151
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:15,595
They met very young.

152
00:08:15,661 --> 00:08:18,064
They lived a very intense life together.

153
00:08:18,130 --> 00:08:22,001
and for both creative and business reasons,

154
00:08:22,068 --> 00:08:23,970
the boys started to cry.

155
00:08:24,036 --> 00:08:25,671
This event is so significant,

156
00:08:25,738 --> 00:08:28,875
that the events will happen one day
they are regarded as measuring instruments

157
00:08:28,941 --> 00:08:31,444
the British Empire
in the process of decline.

158
00:08:31,511 --> 00:08:33,679
The Beatles break up.

159
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:41,587
Yoko On was initially slapped
fans of the Beatles.

160
00:08:42,121 --> 00:08:45,424
Then they looked at him,
like stealing John Lennon.

161
00:08:45,491 --> 00:08:48,127
But not because of Yoko Ono
the Beatles broke up.

162
00:08:48,194 --> 00:08:50,196
The Beatles disbanded themselves.

163
00:08:50,263 --> 00:08:52,031
few things
what was said about him recently,

164
00:08:52,098 --> 00:08:53,499
he was not too kind.

165
00:08:53,566 --> 00:08:55,835
-No, no. Not.
- Does that make you sad?

166
00:08:55,902 --> 00:08:58,471
He was a little depressed,
as they kept teasing Yok,

167
00:08:58,538 --> 00:08:59,839
you know, they said it was small

168
00:08:59,906 --> 00:09:01,574
and such personal things.

169
00:09:01,641 --> 00:09:03,376
But I know it's not, in words...

170
00:09:03,442 --> 00:09:05,011
John and Yoko left England,

171
00:09:05,077 --> 00:09:08,347
because the cheese� 
he attacked Yok so fiercely.

172
00:09:09,782 --> 00:09:12,051
And so, they came to New York.

173
00:09:12,118 --> 00:09:13,953
They were treated with respect in New York.

174
00:09:17,456 --> 00:09:20,993
The 1970s were turbulent times
were in New York.

175
00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:22,728
Many did not work.

176
00:09:22,795 --> 00:09:24,730
But the lack of money

177
00:09:24,797 --> 00:09:27,767
lack of possibilities
and also to control unemployment

178
00:09:27,833 --> 00:09:31,404
it was an exciting and creative time.

179
00:09:31,470 --> 00:09:34,073
New York is a bit like London,
but more intense.

180
00:09:34,140 --> 00:09:36,943
I mean, you can always hear it
the conga music in the park.

181
00:09:37,009 --> 00:09:38,411
It's as if he's constantly painting.

182
00:09:38,477 --> 00:09:39,879
Hip-hop has evolved,

183
00:09:39,946 --> 00:09:42,348
punk rock and disco too,

184
00:09:42,415 --> 00:09:43,816
all at the same time

185
00:09:43,883 --> 00:09:45,918
in different parts of the city,
but they met

186
00:09:45,985 --> 00:09:47,553
and they influenced each other.

187
00:09:49,522 --> 00:09:53,526
Yok� had a lot of friends here,
all artists like Andy Warhol.

188
00:09:53,593 --> 00:09:57,563
Elton John and John
They made a lifelong friendship.

189
00:09:57,630 --> 00:09:59,966
He was a close friend
Also with David Bowie.

190
00:10:00,032 --> 00:10:01,434
John loved New York,

191
00:10:01,500 --> 00:10:04,837
 �s New York, America
it meant freedom.

192
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:10,142
People are not bullied
Yok and John on the street.

193
00:10:10,209 --> 00:10:11,911
They didn't bother me

194
00:10:11,978 --> 00:10:14,113
with that Beatlemania-like fan.

195
00:10:14,180 --> 00:10:15,514
But he was away from the Beatles.

196
00:10:15,581 --> 00:10:17,350
Once a fan asked him,

197
00:10:17,416 --> 00:10:19,619
"You, John,
when are the Beatles coming back?"

198
00:10:19,685 --> 00:10:21,053
John smiled and said

199
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,022
"When are you going back to high school?"

200
00:10:23,089 --> 00:10:25,057
He was very proud of the Beatles,

201
00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:27,293
but as soon as he finished this, he was gone,

202
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,228
he didn't want to go back to that.

203
00:10:29,295 --> 00:10:31,197
You have to look ahead.
Something else needs to be done.

204
00:10:34,033 --> 00:10:35,735
It is ready for the people.

205
00:10:35,801 --> 00:10:37,903
He loved his fans and New Yorkers.

206
00:10:39,205 --> 00:10:44,810
There were those who behaved normally
bring, to the music and to the reputation.

207
00:10:44,877 --> 00:10:47,380
But there were those who didn't.

208
00:10:47,913 --> 00:10:50,583
There were those who wanted to own it.

209
00:10:58,891 --> 00:11:01,927
Peace now! Peace now! Peace now!

210
00:11:05,765 --> 00:11:07,667
Politics was in the air at that time.

211
00:11:07,733 --> 00:11:09,669
Come on, it couldn't be avoided.

212
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:13,706
John and Yoko upon arrival in New York

213
00:11:13,773 --> 00:11:15,741
were the most politically active.

214
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:19,912
As an artist, if you get involved in something,

215
00:11:19,979 --> 00:11:21,714
so you're really into it, right?

216
00:11:21,781 --> 00:11:23,883
- We wanted to be here.
-Really participate.

217
00:11:23,949 --> 00:11:25,785
On the front lines, you know?

218
00:11:25,851 --> 00:11:29,722
As always advertised,
with flowers, but still inside the door.

219
00:11:29,789 --> 00:11:31,323
We will last until the end.

220
00:11:31,390 --> 00:11:33,993
I read somewhere
that the war movement is over.

221
00:11:36,295 --> 00:11:38,831
It was possible
to come up with such simple lines,

222
00:11:38,898 --> 00:11:41,100
like "We're just saying
give way to peace."

223
00:11:49,175 --> 00:11:50,643
Everyone thought that

224
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:53,579
but John gave the words,
with which they could express this.

225
00:11:55,514 --> 00:11:56,949
"Give Peace a Chance"

226
00:11:57,016 --> 00:12:00,252
became an anthem for all those
who believed

227
00:12:00,319 --> 00:12:03,856
in solving the war as a proxy.

228
00:12:03,923 --> 00:12:06,459
It's time to act.

229
00:12:06,525 --> 00:12:10,329
John loudly announced his inspection
Against Richard Nixon.

230
00:12:10,796 --> 00:12:14,266
He made a list of Nixon's enemies.
Nixon wanted to deport him.

231
00:12:14,333 --> 00:12:16,969
and this ruined the lives of many people.

232
00:12:17,036 --> 00:12:18,704
It almost ruined his career.

233
00:12:18,771 --> 00:12:23,008
He got through it, miraculously,
but it was a huge burden.

234
00:12:26,612 --> 00:12:30,783
The songs you sing
not the most melodious.

235
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:32,585
These are songs of protest.

236
00:12:32,651 --> 00:12:36,021
and the difficulty
at best, different.

237
00:12:36,088 --> 00:12:37,623
Critics hate it.

238
00:12:37,690 --> 00:12:40,760
and i think
this hurt John very much.

239
00:12:40,826 --> 00:12:44,830
In '72 he found himself

240
00:12:44,897 --> 00:12:47,299
that in many ways
lost its popularity.

241
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,302
It was a very stressful time,

242
00:12:50,369 --> 00:12:53,072
And he had a hard time dealing with it.

243
00:12:54,073 --> 00:12:57,610
John in full measure
became unreliable in their marriage.

244
00:12:58,210 --> 00:13:00,079
Yoko sent John away.

245
00:13:00,146 --> 00:13:02,581
About 18 months
lived in Los Angeles.

246
00:13:02,648 --> 00:13:04,683
John called her "the lost hero".

247
00:13:04,750 --> 00:13:06,118
The Los Angeles meeting

248
00:13:06,185 --> 00:13:08,721
echoed from the wild partygoers.

249
00:13:08,788 --> 00:13:10,823
I was also hired in New York sometimes,

250
00:13:10,890 --> 00:13:13,759
and I knew John was becoming unmanageable,
if you drink a lot.

251
00:13:13,826 --> 00:13:16,929
Keith Moon, Harry, �n, Ringo,
we all lived in the same house

252
00:13:16,996 --> 00:13:18,998
And we had some fantastic photos.

253
00:13:19,064 --> 00:13:20,833
I came close to killing myself.

254
00:13:20,900 --> 00:13:23,602
But I woke up
that something is wrong.

255
00:13:23,669 --> 00:13:25,838
You know, it's crazy, man.

256
00:13:25,905 --> 00:13:29,542
He spent several months in his distant life,

257
00:13:29,608 --> 00:13:33,412
with a kind of carefree individuality,

258
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:36,849
but he really hated it and begged
Yok� to take it back.

259
00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:40,219
And finally he went back to Yoko.

260
00:13:46,892 --> 00:13:50,629
Once we were driving with John and Yok
in Central Park.

261
00:13:50,696 --> 00:13:52,765
It turned out that they were going away that day

262
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:55,401
to see the apartment in the Dakota house.

263
00:13:56,735 --> 00:14:00,439
I think John liked it
the English Gothic style castle,

264
00:14:00,506 --> 00:14:02,575
as if he knew the place.

265
00:14:05,010 --> 00:14:06,779
The Dakota house

266
00:14:06,846 --> 00:14:08,814
not like an ivory tower

267
00:14:08,881 --> 00:14:10,850
but still it's like you're moving away.

268
00:14:10,916 --> 00:14:13,819
This was one of the most famous companies.

269
00:14:13,886 --> 00:14:17,456
So many famous people lived there.

270
00:14:18,390 --> 00:14:20,726
Lauren Bacall and Leonard Bernstein,

271
00:14:20,793 --> 00:14:23,529
Roberta Flack and Judy Garland.

272
00:14:23,596 --> 00:14:28,234
The kind of place they go to
who want silence.

273
00:14:29,168 --> 00:14:32,638
The Dakota house is
like the widow's mother

274
00:14:32,705 --> 00:14:34,273
between the houses.

275
00:14:34,907 --> 00:14:40,212
In the beginning, it was the only one
big party on Central Park West.

276
00:14:41,013 --> 00:14:45,517
The city grew gradually,
but the Dakota house remained as it was.

277
00:14:45,584 --> 00:14:50,789
In the end, this became the whole town
his most special occasion.

278
00:14:51,790 --> 00:14:55,527
we all know
that the first impression counts,

279
00:14:55,594 --> 00:15:00,900
And the first impression
the entrance from the Dakota house.

280
00:15:01,467 --> 00:15:04,970
A two-story high shop.

281
00:15:05,037 --> 00:15:10,075
And from that, a finely elaborated one

282
00:15:10,142 --> 00:15:12,745
wrought iron gate.

283
00:15:13,078 --> 00:15:18,417
Whoever goes before him,
does not consider it an ordinary company.

284
00:15:24,023 --> 00:15:26,959
I saw some guys in Times Square,

285
00:15:27,026 --> 00:15:29,395
who caption New York City� 
they ran a lot.

286
00:15:29,461 --> 00:15:31,797
I bought one for myself and one for John.

287
00:15:32,364 --> 00:15:34,099
This was made in the summer of '74,

288
00:15:34,166 --> 00:15:36,769
when we took pictures on the roof of the house.

289
00:15:36,835 --> 00:15:38,404
At the request of the snorers, I asked,

290
00:15:38,470 --> 00:15:40,039
"It has that New York look,

291
00:15:40,105 --> 00:15:41,774
what i gave you last year? "Yes," he said.

292
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:43,809
I asked, "Why don't you pick it up?"

293
00:15:43,876 --> 00:15:45,678
We made a bunch of pictures.

294
00:15:45,744 --> 00:15:48,881
I did not expect that this would be the picture

295
00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:51,583
which remains so
in people's memory.

296
00:15:52,785 --> 00:15:57,022
He used to go to a stone a lot
on the corner of 71st Street.

297
00:15:57,089 --> 00:15:59,358
and the owner once
introduced it to me.

298
00:15:59,425 --> 00:16:01,660
He said, "This is John Lennon."

299
00:16:01,727 --> 00:16:04,496
He has been around a lot and we know

300
00:16:04,563 --> 00:16:06,265
he lived an open life.

301
00:16:06,332 --> 00:16:10,135
He wasn't worried about security
or for any other reason.

302
00:16:10,936 --> 00:16:12,604
It was the first time

303
00:16:12,671 --> 00:16:15,441
the start of the Beatles,

304
00:16:15,507 --> 00:16:17,276
that he didn't have a record deal.

305
00:16:17,343 --> 00:16:18,577
He was free.

306
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:21,280
and returned to the Dakota house,

307
00:16:21,347 --> 00:16:23,115
returned to family life.

308
00:16:23,182 --> 00:16:24,450
He became a father.

309
00:16:25,117 --> 00:16:29,421
Sean was born on October 9, 1975,
On John's birthday.

310
00:16:30,122 --> 00:16:32,791
Born on October 9,

311
00:16:32,858 --> 00:16:35,861
as in, in words, it's almost like
as if we were twins.

312
00:16:35,928 --> 00:16:40,132
If I'm depressed, without it showing,

313
00:16:40,199 --> 00:16:41,967
somehow you feel it.

314
00:16:42,034 --> 00:16:44,236
 �and he also �takes this mood.

315
00:16:44,303 --> 00:16:47,639
And I can't fall for art anymore
into depression, which usually is

316
00:16:47,706 --> 00:16:49,274
resulted in a sad song,

317
00:16:49,341 --> 00:16:51,110
but it's also something I can use.

318
00:16:51,176 --> 00:16:54,880
Now I have more reason to be happy
And to stay healthy.

319
00:16:54,947 --> 00:16:56,882
I can't sink anymore.

320
00:16:57,816 --> 00:16:59,585
I ran with him.

321
00:16:59,651 --> 00:17:03,022
He said, "I'm teaching Sean

322
00:17:03,088 --> 00:17:04,957
in the Y across the street."

323
00:17:05,024 --> 00:17:09,028
He said, "I became a house husband."

324
00:17:09,094 --> 00:17:11,363
"And I've never enjoyed life more."

325
00:17:11,430 --> 00:17:13,265
And his appearance is so...

326
00:17:13,332 --> 00:17:14,767
He looked so different.

327
00:17:14,833 --> 00:17:18,904
He feels peaceful and calm.

328
00:17:18,971 --> 00:17:23,175
As if to say
at last he distributes his fortune to himself.

329
00:17:24,410 --> 00:17:26,879
When Channel 7
I was a producer of optical news,

330
00:17:26,945 --> 00:17:28,814
we had a reporter, Joel Siegel.

331
00:17:28,881 --> 00:17:31,950
He left to tell a story
about the Big Apple Circus,

332
00:17:32,017 --> 00:17:34,086
And he was still there, enjoying the crowd

333
00:17:34,153 --> 00:17:36,422
John Lennon among the Monday people.

334
00:17:36,488 --> 00:17:39,725
Joel came to her and asked:
"Can I ask you a few questions?"

335
00:17:39,792 --> 00:17:42,161
Celebrities usually say:
"Not now."

336
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:44,229
"I'm with your family.
Talk to me."

337
00:17:44,296 --> 00:17:45,431
John said "Sure"

338
00:17:45,497 --> 00:17:47,232
How does he like the circus, what do you think?

339
00:17:47,299 --> 00:17:49,168
How do you like the circus?

340
00:17:49,234 --> 00:17:50,803
I understand.
- So excited

341
00:17:50,869 --> 00:17:52,337
that he doesn't say a word, you know?

342
00:17:52,404 --> 00:17:54,973
He's a little bored with the applause, you know?

343
00:17:55,407 --> 00:17:57,209
What is your favorite thing about the circus?

344
00:17:57,276 --> 00:17:59,778
I love bunnies and puppies.

345
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:03,182
He would give up everything, run away,
to join the circus?

346
00:18:03,248 --> 00:18:04,817
I already gave up.

347
00:18:04,883 --> 00:18:06,785
But I haven't decided where to go.

348
00:18:08,220 --> 00:18:10,956
After he crosses the river
raised his son, Sean,

349
00:18:11,023 --> 00:18:14,159
basically retired from the music industry,

350
00:18:14,226 --> 00:18:17,596
and freed himself from the pressure of acting,

351
00:18:17,663 --> 00:18:20,265
John learned a lot about adult divorce,

352
00:18:20,332 --> 00:18:24,136
And he learned that the wise life
in fact, you will pay a lot.

353
00:18:24,203 --> 00:18:27,473
You're talking about that too, aren't you?
"Watching the Wheels."

354
00:18:39,785 --> 00:18:43,455
This is what he learned in them
in the years between 1975 and 1980,

355
00:18:43,522 --> 00:18:46,725
how to be in a relationship
what it's like to have a family.

356
00:18:52,965 --> 00:18:55,400
John lived a very comfortable life
in New York.

357
00:18:55,467 --> 00:18:56,635
He loved New York.

358
00:18:57,903 --> 00:19:02,774
Not only at the level of Bob Gruen
was a favorite personal photographer,

359
00:19:02,841 --> 00:19:04,610
but also a friend.

360
00:19:04,676 --> 00:19:06,378
It was an early spring day,

361
00:19:06,445 --> 00:19:09,047
And we took some really great pictures.

362
00:19:10,215 --> 00:19:13,986
There is a nice picture of them as soon as
they depart from Central Park West.

363
00:19:14,052 --> 00:19:15,787
We went out to Central Park.

364
00:19:15,854 --> 00:19:19,191
I remember John being a big
He wore a hat, in a hippie style,

365
00:19:19,258 --> 00:19:21,793
and I made a picture,
as Yoko entered.

366
00:19:22,694 --> 00:19:27,599
Small yellow flowers were given
each other around the tree.

367
00:19:27,666 --> 00:19:31,069
They had similar experiences in New York.

368
00:19:35,874 --> 00:19:38,277
I didn't think about music at all.

369
00:19:38,343 --> 00:19:41,680
My guitar was hanging from the tree,
according to word.

370
00:19:42,114 --> 00:19:45,083
I don't think I took it off
in the past year.

371
00:19:45,984 --> 00:19:50,522
In 1980, he felt the need to
to get music.

372
00:19:51,056 --> 00:19:55,494
John described it as,
as if something suddenly struck him.

373
00:19:55,561 --> 00:19:59,598
Melodies came to mind,
and this inspired him.

374
00:20:00,032 --> 00:20:02,534
Suddenly I came, my love!

375
00:20:02,601 --> 00:20:04,236
I didn't know what came over me!

376
00:20:05,304 --> 00:20:08,440
Suddenly it was like a...
if you'll excuse the expression,

377
00:20:08,507 --> 00:20:10,609
creativity diarrhea.

378
00:20:11,843 --> 00:20:15,581
Yoko talked him into traveling to Bermuda,

379
00:20:15,647 --> 00:20:17,716
to stimulate creativity,

380
00:20:17,783 --> 00:20:20,686
and to travel by boat to Bermuda.

381
00:20:25,457 --> 00:20:28,660
I flew from Newport to Bermuda.
It was almost a thousand kilometers.

382
00:20:28,827 --> 00:20:31,897
Seven days during my first trip to Chechen
I filled the open water.

383
00:20:32,164 --> 00:20:35,000
This was my most wonderful experience so far.

384
00:20:39,471 --> 00:20:42,007
One day there was a terrible storm.

385
00:20:44,843 --> 00:20:46,578
Most of them are exhausted.

386
00:20:46,645 --> 00:20:49,348
One after the other, they became seasick.

387
00:20:49,915 --> 00:20:52,618
The captain asked:
"Do you want to take over the government?"

388
00:20:53,452 --> 00:20:57,689
Mire �n: "Do you think it would go?"
He replied, "Well, I will have to."

389
00:20:57,889 --> 00:21:00,325
"There is no one else who can do it."

390
00:21:00,993 --> 00:21:02,661
This must have looked fantastic.

391
00:21:02,728 --> 00:21:06,431
As they put John to the boat.
so that it does not fly into the sea.

392
00:21:07,199 --> 00:21:09,167
A few waves forced him to his knees.

393
00:21:09,234 --> 00:21:11,570
I was just hanging on the steering wheel.

394
00:21:11,770 --> 00:21:17,542
I ran my hair through six lines,
keeping in line.

395
00:21:20,145 --> 00:21:21,847
It was the best experience of my life!

396
00:21:21,913 --> 00:21:24,750
I sang matr�z songs,
and I moved to the gods.

397
00:21:24,883 --> 00:21:28,420
I felt myself
like a viking you know...

398
00:21:28,487 --> 00:21:30,856
It won't go away.
You can't change your mind.

399
00:21:31,590 --> 00:21:35,093
It's like on the bench:
once you're there, there's no going back.

400
00:21:36,561 --> 00:21:38,997
I was divorced and lost at the same time.

401
00:21:44,736 --> 00:21:47,406
As soon as he reached Bermuda, he began to cry.

402
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:50,876
He recorded demos.

403
00:21:50,942 --> 00:21:52,144
Take one of them!

404
00:21:52,210 --> 00:21:53,578
Yoko meanwhile

405
00:21:53,645 --> 00:21:56,415
In New York, he worked as a cheese maker.

406
00:21:56,481 --> 00:21:58,250
They talked to each other on the phone.

407
00:21:58,317 --> 00:22:00,385
Shall I start over? Ok�.

408
00:22:00,452 --> 00:22:03,055
They shared their songs with each other.

409
00:22:03,121 --> 00:22:05,090
Totally inspired.

410
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:08,126
If you ask for something,
or played the tape on the phone,

411
00:22:08,193 --> 00:22:09,928
within five or fifteen minutes,

412
00:22:09,995 --> 00:22:12,464
I suddenly felt
as the song is born in me.

413
00:22:13,198 --> 00:22:17,102
The songs just started
to fall on him from behind.

414
00:22:17,169 --> 00:22:21,073
Suddenly there was all this material,
but I didn't even really try,

415
00:22:21,139 --> 00:22:23,608
but het �t �vig
I didn't try at all.

416
00:22:24,509 --> 00:22:26,678
One, two, one, four.

417
00:22:27,979 --> 00:22:29,815
One day the phone rang.

418
00:22:31,083 --> 00:22:33,919
I picked it up, a voice spoke,
and he said

419
00:22:33,985 --> 00:22:37,989
"If you really want something
to get into something special,

420
00:22:38,056 --> 00:22:42,394
it should be at noon tomorrow on 33rd Street
especially where the seaplanes land."

421
00:22:42,461 --> 00:22:44,996
Click. Then I thought

422
00:22:45,063 --> 00:22:49,034
we really want something exciting
and get into a mystery.

423
00:22:49,101 --> 00:22:51,336
And I will fly with a seaplane.
It sounds good.

424
00:22:52,871 --> 00:22:57,476
The plane took off, flew away,
And he got off his fork.

425
00:22:58,310 --> 00:23:01,246
I walk in and Yoko tells me

426
00:23:01,313 --> 00:23:05,817
"What I'm telling you now is strictly confidential,
And you can't tell anyone."

427
00:23:08,453 --> 00:23:12,858
"John wants to make a record,
and he will be the producer."

428
00:23:13,725 --> 00:23:15,293
He gave me a bottle of wine.

429
00:23:15,360 --> 00:23:17,028
It said, "For Jack personally."

430
00:23:17,095 --> 00:23:19,231
And the phone rang.

431
00:23:19,297 --> 00:23:22,200
It was John. He said:
"Listen to the tapes,

432
00:23:22,267 --> 00:23:23,702
which are in the bottles,

433
00:23:23,769 --> 00:23:26,505
and if you think it's shit, then let's leave it."

434
00:23:26,571 --> 00:23:30,876
"But if you find them coming,
let's come to the studio and do it!"

435
00:23:32,978 --> 00:23:36,948
I went back and listened
and I was lost.

436
00:23:40,886 --> 00:23:43,789
Jack led a large team,
who could really play music.

437
00:23:43,855 --> 00:23:46,458
I called

438
00:23:46,525 --> 00:23:49,694
such great musicians
like Tony Levin, Hugh McCracken,

439
00:23:49,761 --> 00:23:52,464
George Small, Andy Newmark.

440
00:23:52,531 --> 00:23:54,666
A phone call came.

441
00:23:54,733 --> 00:23:58,069
I just toured Europe.

442
00:23:58,136 --> 00:23:59,538
I was excited.

443
00:23:59,604 --> 00:24:02,174
They told me not to tell anyone.

444
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,342
As soon as I hung up the phone,

445
00:24:04,409 --> 00:24:08,346
I went back to the sound check,
and I told everyone in the band.

446
00:24:12,484 --> 00:24:16,655
I told John that a �st too
Let's take it: Earl Slick.

447
00:24:16,721 --> 00:24:18,557
Earl played with David Bowie.

448
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,393
I went to the mixing desk,

449
00:24:21,860 --> 00:24:24,863
and John bet:
"Come see you."

450
00:24:24,930 --> 00:24:29,367
We worked together once
With David Bowie, on the famous song "Fame".

451
00:24:29,434 --> 00:24:31,403
And I didn't remember it.

452
00:24:31,470 --> 00:24:34,306
With words, it became a kind of joke
during the admissions.

453
00:24:34,940 --> 00:24:36,975
He just said into the microphone:

454
00:24:37,042 --> 00:24:38,844
"How do you remember me now?"

455
00:24:38,910 --> 00:24:41,146
The study work was fun.

456
00:24:41,213 --> 00:24:44,149
Earl didn't know the materials.

457
00:24:44,216 --> 00:24:47,652
The first day I put a score on Earl's chair,

458
00:24:47,719 --> 00:24:51,056
to which Hugh McCracken went,
And he turned it upside down.

459
00:24:51,122 --> 00:24:55,660
It could have been any Urb�l �b�c�,
I didn't know him.

460
00:24:55,727 --> 00:24:57,729
Earl couldn't read music,

461
00:24:57,796 --> 00:24:59,998
but he lived there and pretended to know.

462
00:25:00,065 --> 00:25:02,400
Pretty soon everyone was on the stove,

463
00:25:02,467 --> 00:25:05,437
because it was obvious that he was bluffing.

464
00:25:06,905 --> 00:25:09,241
He started out with Earl well.

465
00:25:09,307 --> 00:25:10,742
We played a lot of music in the evening.

466
00:25:10,809 --> 00:25:14,212
We played a lot of Beatles songs,
between two recordings.

467
00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:17,849
and if there was a Beatles song on the radio,

468
00:25:17,916 --> 00:25:22,521
we stopped everything and he told me

469
00:25:22,587 --> 00:25:26,091
how the song was made and what happened that day.

470
00:25:28,627 --> 00:25:33,698
A tribute to the Beatles
it was obvious to us.

471
00:25:33,765 --> 00:25:37,135
He really said he loved you
they were his brothers.

472
00:25:39,804 --> 00:25:42,807
We worked completely secretly for a month.

473
00:25:42,874 --> 00:25:46,411
John didn't want to
for everyone to know

474
00:25:46,478 --> 00:25:49,948
that he is making a record, because very
was unsure about

475
00:25:50,015 --> 00:25:55,186
whether he is still capable of it
After many years of absence.

476
00:25:56,054 --> 00:25:58,490
There was so much pressure on him

477
00:25:58,557 --> 00:26:00,592
at the end of the 1970s,

478
00:26:00,659 --> 00:26:03,094
what if he started with this
and it falls flat?

479
00:26:03,161 --> 00:26:04,362
What if no one is interested?

480
00:26:04,429 --> 00:26:08,667
What if you don't turn anyone on
John Lennon's big comeback?

481
00:26:18,843 --> 00:26:20,679
He said, "It's a story."

482
00:26:20,745 --> 00:26:24,149
"A story about a man,
who became forty �ves."

483
00:26:24,215 --> 00:26:26,184
"He has reached his limit."

484
00:26:27,118 --> 00:26:29,721
I'm not trying to compete
not with my old self,

485
00:26:29,788 --> 00:26:35,060
nor with his youthful directions,
or anything else that is yet to come.

486
00:26:35,126 --> 00:26:36,494
I'm not competing with anything.

487
00:26:36,561 --> 00:26:40,231
I'll try to return it
And to borrow what I originally borrowed.

488
00:26:40,298 --> 00:26:42,067
and it works.

489
00:26:46,671 --> 00:26:48,173
Things have changed.

490
00:26:48,239 --> 00:26:51,710
we are not teenagers
who play rock and roll.

491
00:26:51,776 --> 00:26:55,313
The songs are about where we are now.

492
00:26:58,683 --> 00:27:01,019
You know what I mean
I returned to my roots.

493
00:27:01,086 --> 00:27:04,122
Not the sixties
Beatle to John.

494
00:27:04,189 --> 00:27:06,024
to John Lennon.

495
00:27:10,128 --> 00:27:12,530
in 1980,

496
00:27:12,597 --> 00:27:14,966
John and Yoko
while they were still working on the album,

497
00:27:15,033 --> 00:27:17,235
the single "Starting Over" was released.

498
00:27:17,302 --> 00:27:20,705
This is a trial
between a man and a woman,

499
00:27:20,772 --> 00:27:24,609
what he and Yoko wanted to express so badly.

500
00:27:24,676 --> 00:27:28,380
And Scott Muni played it on the radio
"Starting Over".

501
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,150
They are so old that we can hear them on the radio
the mouth that they started dancing.

502
00:27:43,328 --> 00:27:47,599
It is so wonderful that an artist like
like John Lennon

503
00:27:47,666 --> 00:27:49,901
who has achieved so much success

504
00:27:49,968 --> 00:27:53,071
still gets so excited

505
00:27:53,138 --> 00:27:55,440
if he hears his own cheese

506
00:27:55,507 --> 00:27:57,409
play in the library.

507
00:27:57,742 --> 00:28:01,079
He did not find happiness
in front of a crowd of 10,000 fos.

508
00:28:02,047 --> 00:28:04,983
But he found her at home with Sean and Yok.

509
00:28:05,617 --> 00:28:09,587
and this man appeared in 1980.

510
00:28:10,655 --> 00:28:11,990
Let's face the reality!

511
00:28:12,057 --> 00:28:14,959
I was a very nice girl,

512
00:28:15,026 --> 00:28:17,462
I had my own place on the bench.

513
00:28:17,529 --> 00:28:19,831
I want to be with my best friend
who is my wife.

514
00:28:19,898 --> 00:28:21,900
Who could want more?

515
00:28:21,966 --> 00:28:27,038
I wasn't the same John Lennon
who left this in '75.

516
00:28:27,772 --> 00:28:32,444
A completely different John Lennon
returned to study.

517
00:28:36,481 --> 00:28:39,284
He said:
"I don't care if we catch it now."

518
00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:41,953
"We'll catch up one day.
I'm going to kill you."

519
00:28:43,655 --> 00:28:46,925
Few artists have influenced it so far
to people like John Lennon.

520
00:28:46,991 --> 00:28:51,696
ROSE - Sale RECORDS
AVAILABILITY - TELEVISION

521
00:28:57,669 --> 00:28:59,604
This new album, Double Fantasy,

522
00:28:59,671 --> 00:29:02,507
how much it reflects
John's current outlook?

523
00:29:03,041 --> 00:29:05,143
But I was very surprised that the album was released,

524
00:29:05,210 --> 00:29:07,078
that people liked it
and they liked it.

525
00:29:07,145 --> 00:29:09,214
It really felt like it was starting.

526
00:29:12,684 --> 00:29:14,119
PRETIES 25� -
PEANUTS 10

527
00:29:16,287 --> 00:29:19,257
John and I from around two crosses
we live on earth

528
00:29:19,324 --> 00:29:21,192
then he told me how happy he was

529
00:29:21,259 --> 00:29:24,763
because the album is moving up the charts,
and more and more popular.

530
00:29:24,829 --> 00:29:26,831
This is WLS radio, let's hear John Lennon.

531
00:29:27,732 --> 00:29:29,934
and when the sun rose

532
00:29:30,001 --> 00:29:33,204
maybe it was 07:30 or 08:00,
when we left school

533
00:29:33,271 --> 00:29:36,841
there are a few pictures of them standing there
on the sidewalk in 44th Street,

534
00:29:36,908 --> 00:29:39,010
which, strangely enough, was the same place

535
00:29:39,077 --> 00:29:41,045
where the very first season
I took pictures

536
00:29:41,112 --> 00:29:44,382
when at the Record Plant,
I met them at music school,

537
00:29:44,449 --> 00:29:46,284
And I took a few pictures on the sidewalk.

538
00:29:46,351 --> 00:29:48,520
He said:
"Ok, well, see you later."

539
00:29:53,391 --> 00:29:57,829
December 8, 1980 became the day
which changed everything.

540
00:29:57,896 --> 00:30:01,132
Simply unfathomable
that this was his last day.

541
00:30:03,468 --> 00:30:05,970
The next month of the cheese campaign

542
00:30:06,037 --> 00:30:08,373
Rolling Stone magazine
it was a cover story.

543
00:30:09,908 --> 00:30:11,609
The air was full of excitement.

544
00:30:11,676 --> 00:30:13,845
Great photoshoot with Annie Leibowitz,

545
00:30:13,912 --> 00:30:17,448
who is arguably the leading female photographer
born in rock and roll,

546
00:30:17,515 --> 00:30:19,584
or maybe in the entire music industry.

547
00:30:20,118 --> 00:30:24,722
This portrait, I think
reflects the essence of their entire relationship.

548
00:30:25,190 --> 00:30:27,926
As John, naked,
like a prophet

549
00:30:27,992 --> 00:30:31,129
looking for security, he wraps himself around Yoko.

550
00:30:31,629 --> 00:30:35,133
They are balanced.

551
00:30:35,834 --> 00:30:38,002
This is a bold

552
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:40,805
dangerous portrait.

553
00:30:40,872 --> 00:30:42,574
and beautiful.

554
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,109
It's simply amazing.

555
00:30:49,314 --> 00:30:54,052
Next up after Annie Leibowitz
it was the RKO R�di� interview team.

556
00:30:54,118 --> 00:30:56,254
Led by Dave Sholin.

557
00:30:59,657 --> 00:31:04,662
Sometime in the south we came to the Dakota house.

558
00:31:04,729 --> 00:31:07,765
The sight of John opening the door,

559
00:31:07,832 --> 00:31:11,069
as he says, he jumps up and runs into the room

560
00:31:11,135 --> 00:31:15,173
And he stretches out his arms as if to
he says, "Hey, people, I'm here."

561
00:31:16,474 --> 00:31:17,942
I'm sorry I'm late.

562
00:31:18,009 --> 00:31:20,211
Yes, we started. The recording is going on, dear.

563
00:31:20,278 --> 00:31:21,613
Hi! Hello!

564
00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:23,615
-Hi!
-What is it?

565
00:31:23,681 --> 00:31:25,617
A microphone. Let me calm down.

566
00:31:25,683 --> 00:31:27,118
It's just, you know?

567
00:31:27,185 --> 00:31:29,087
Hello, hello! Test, test.

568
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,556
Hello, Dave! how are you

569
00:31:31,623 --> 00:31:34,058
He was simply happy.

570
00:31:34,125 --> 00:31:35,593
about life

571
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:39,697
and he thought happily of the people before him

572
00:31:39,764 --> 00:31:43,568
With Sean, the musician and Yok.

573
00:31:43,635 --> 00:31:47,405
And that was it. It was beautiful.

574
00:31:47,472 --> 00:31:50,174
I'm sorry, this is just the beginning
here and now, you know.

575
00:31:50,241 --> 00:31:53,411
Double Fantasy is our...
This is our first album.

576
00:31:53,478 --> 00:31:56,915
I know, we worked together before.
We also released another record.

577
00:31:56,981 --> 00:31:58,650
However, I feel that this is the first.

578
00:31:58,716 --> 00:32:01,920
I feel like...
Nothing would have happened before today.

579
00:32:01,986 --> 00:32:04,822
Right at the very beginning of the interview

580
00:32:04,889 --> 00:32:08,660
we realized
what John does everyday.

581
00:32:08,726 --> 00:32:11,462
Sean was his first thought.

582
00:32:11,529 --> 00:32:14,098
My life revolves around Sean.

583
00:32:14,165 --> 00:32:16,067
John was at home with Sean,

584
00:32:16,134 --> 00:32:18,970
He felt that the appropriate full one,

585
00:32:19,037 --> 00:32:24,108
and not to look at bad things
on TV and stuff like that.

586
00:32:24,175 --> 00:32:27,178
I was very surprised to hear that.

587
00:32:27,245 --> 00:32:29,380
Not what one would expect.

588
00:32:29,447 --> 00:32:31,449
So he consciously decided

589
00:32:31,516 --> 00:32:34,719
to give himself
to the relationship with the son.

590
00:32:34,786 --> 00:32:37,021
and he learned too.

591
00:32:37,088 --> 00:32:39,357
I learned a lot from the kid,

592
00:32:39,424 --> 00:32:41,859
because they are not fake and not fake.

593
00:32:41,926 --> 00:32:45,430
One day when you just
we lay on the faith

594
00:32:45,496 --> 00:32:47,365
got up and said

595
00:32:47,432 --> 00:32:49,467
"Do you know what I want to be when I grow up?"

596
00:32:49,534 --> 00:32:51,035
I said, "No, so what?"

597
00:32:51,102 --> 00:32:54,572
He looked straight into my eyes,
and he said, "Just daddy."

598
00:32:54,639 --> 00:32:57,041
Sean told him that when he got up,

599
00:32:57,108 --> 00:33:01,846
he wants to be "just a dad", you know
this resonated with John.

600
00:33:01,913 --> 00:33:05,850
He yelled unexpectedly because... "Just dad."

601
00:33:06,150 --> 00:33:08,453
I said: "You know, you don't hurt him,

602
00:33:08,519 --> 00:33:11,589
that I'm working now
And do I leave home often?"

603
00:33:11,856 --> 00:33:13,024
He said, "Yes."

604
00:33:13,091 --> 00:33:15,994
Because I didn't go to school until now,

605
00:33:16,060 --> 00:33:19,464
that is, he is used to
that I'm always there.

606
00:33:23,401 --> 00:33:27,705
We filled three and a half together
in the Dakota house,

607
00:33:27,772 --> 00:33:31,275
we talked about everything
from music to politics.

608
00:33:31,342 --> 00:33:33,344
I still believe in love
in peace.

609
00:33:33,411 --> 00:33:36,781
and I believe in positive thinking,
when I can.

610
00:33:36,848 --> 00:33:40,318
I'm not always positive
but when I do, I try to broadcast it.

611
00:33:40,885 --> 00:33:42,453
He just turned 40.

612
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,490
He said it was like
as if a new chapter had opened.

613
00:33:45,556 --> 00:33:47,392
Such was his mood that day,

614
00:33:47,458 --> 00:33:50,628
And he couldn't have been happier.

615
00:33:50,695 --> 00:33:53,998
We are waiting for an unknown future,
but we are all still here.

616
00:33:54,065 --> 00:33:56,501
All of us... As long as we live, we hope.

617
00:33:56,567 --> 00:33:59,070
When I remember this time,

618
00:33:59,137 --> 00:34:02,106
knowing what happened that day...

619
00:34:03,708 --> 00:34:05,443
completely disappointed.

620
00:34:15,019 --> 00:34:17,622
December 8-9, 1980

621
00:34:17,688 --> 00:34:22,060
John Lennon continues
the Double Fantasy album campaign

622
00:34:22,126 --> 00:34:25,930
with this RKO radio interview,
which was quite thorough.

623
00:34:27,465 --> 00:34:30,968
At the end of the interview,
after turning off the recorder,

624
00:34:31,035 --> 00:34:34,539
we will talk about some successful things.

625
00:34:34,605 --> 00:34:37,909
I brought it with me
an example of Grapefruit,

626
00:34:37,975 --> 00:34:41,212
which is Yoko's poem.

627
00:34:41,279 --> 00:34:44,715
To this they said: "We will give you an autograph.
Let's show it to you!"

628
00:34:44,782 --> 00:34:47,185
And of course I was delighted.

629
00:34:47,251 --> 00:34:48,786
I'm ready! It means a lot.

630
00:34:48,853 --> 00:34:50,188
It's an honor.

631
00:34:50,254 --> 00:34:52,957
You know, I'm also a fan of people,
did you know that

632
00:34:53,024 --> 00:34:56,828
I like signing autographs
when they give me their books.

633
00:34:58,963 --> 00:35:00,298
We packed the equipment,

634
00:35:00,364 --> 00:35:03,167
And we went down to Dakota's house.

635
00:35:03,234 --> 00:35:07,805
I remember when we left
it was a bit cold.

636
00:35:07,872 --> 00:35:11,609
The sun is shining
but the air was still cold.

637
00:35:12,777 --> 00:35:16,514
Paul Goresh, an amateur photographer
He just took pictures.

638
00:35:19,217 --> 00:35:22,487
and quite unexpectedly, guess what,
who are you?

639
00:35:23,788 --> 00:35:25,356
John and Yoko came to it.

640
00:35:25,423 --> 00:35:27,191
They are waiting for their limousine,

641
00:35:27,258 --> 00:35:28,726
but it hasn't gotten there yet.

642
00:35:28,793 --> 00:35:30,528
They were a little confused.

643
00:35:30,862 --> 00:35:35,066
The limousine that goes to school
he would have taken me, he wasn't there

644
00:35:35,133 --> 00:35:36,234
as it should have been.

645
00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:38,970
and then John walked up and down
on the road for a while.

646
00:35:39,570 --> 00:35:41,873
John asked, he said:
"Where are my fans?"

647
00:35:41,939 --> 00:35:43,541
It was calm.

648
00:35:43,608 --> 00:35:45,576
Only a few went there.

649
00:35:45,643 --> 00:35:47,945
There was a guy

650
00:35:48,012 --> 00:35:51,582
a Beatles fan trickled down the sidewalk,

651
00:35:51,649 --> 00:35:54,819
and he wanted an autograph.

652
00:35:57,421 --> 00:36:00,758
This young man approached John,

653
00:36:00,825 --> 00:36:05,630
And Double Fantasy drove it to him
an example from the album,

654
00:36:05,696 --> 00:36:07,198
without a single word.

655
00:36:07,732 --> 00:36:09,734
John asked:
"Do you want me to sleep?"

656
00:36:10,067 --> 00:36:12,670
John said: "John Lennon, 1980."

657
00:36:12,737 --> 00:36:14,972
He asked, "Would you like this?"

658
00:36:15,039 --> 00:36:17,041
He gave it to her, and when he

659
00:36:17,108 --> 00:36:19,810
Goresh photographed them.

660
00:36:21,379 --> 00:36:24,048
Their o car didn't come. Ours was there.

661
00:36:24,348 --> 00:36:28,986
Dave and his team offered it to them,
to be taken to the Record Plant.

662
00:36:29,587 --> 00:36:35,359
They got into the limousine and set off
to the studio with our staff.

663
00:36:35,426 --> 00:36:38,362
I stood there on the sidewalk,

664
00:36:38,429 --> 00:36:40,865
I just took the moment

665
00:36:40,932 --> 00:36:43,935
and I thought back to the past three.

666
00:36:44,001 --> 00:36:47,538
and it's the same guy all the same

667
00:36:47,605 --> 00:36:50,841
started nagging
and constantly inside me.

668
00:36:50,908 --> 00:36:53,211
"Did you talk to him? Did he get an autograph?"

669
00:36:53,277 --> 00:36:55,012
"What did he say? Did he talk to her?"

670
00:36:55,079 --> 00:36:57,181
He kept repeating this.

671
00:36:57,248 --> 00:37:01,385
I dodged, but he just kept coming towards me.

672
00:37:01,452 --> 00:37:04,522
There was something suspicious about this man.

673
00:37:10,061 --> 00:37:13,164
MIDORT MELON WHEN
Coca-Cola - Panasonic

674
00:37:14,932 --> 00:37:16,901
He said, "This song is Yok��."

675
00:37:16,968 --> 00:37:19,704
This is his poem entitled:
"walking on thin ice"

676
00:37:19,770 --> 00:37:21,706
"and I think it's a sl�ger."

677
00:37:21,806 --> 00:37:24,141
"and we want to do something about it."

678
00:37:25,409 --> 00:37:27,144
They were excited about their �j song.

679
00:37:27,211 --> 00:37:30,881
John was actually listening to this
non-stop all weekend.

680
00:37:30,948 --> 00:37:33,517
Loved this tune

681
00:37:33,584 --> 00:37:35,653
And he was ready to work in the studio.

682
00:37:36,187 --> 00:37:39,523
I was there, John and Yoko.

683
00:37:39,590 --> 00:37:42,093
We had a great time,
this song is still being prepared

684
00:37:42,159 --> 00:37:45,696
from a loop.
This became "Walking on Thin Ice".

685
00:37:45,763 --> 00:37:49,100
And then Yoko beat him
this great poem that...

686
00:37:49,166 --> 00:37:53,170
He sang this little tune...

687
00:38:03,748 --> 00:38:07,485
He was sure that this song,
"Walking on thin ice"

688
00:38:07,551 --> 00:38:10,655
it will open a new world for Yoko.

689
00:38:11,756 --> 00:38:15,126
Yoko asked:
"Shall we go to the Stage Deli?"

690
00:38:15,192 --> 00:38:18,162
But John wanted to go back to the Dakota house,

691
00:38:18,229 --> 00:38:21,532
to wish you a good night
to his son Sean before he falls asleep.

692
00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:24,035
They finished by that evening,

693
00:38:24,101 --> 00:38:26,771
and we agreed to come in tomorrow,

694
00:38:26,837 --> 00:38:31,242
and mastering the single.

695
00:38:31,309 --> 00:38:35,413
John and Yoko were both excited.
They loved how she gave birth.

696
00:38:35,479 --> 00:38:36,747
It was perfect.

697
00:38:36,814 --> 00:38:38,949
Things couldn't have been better
that evening.

698
00:38:40,084 --> 00:38:41,285
The future looks great.

699
00:38:41,352 --> 00:38:45,723
and I asked you to the elevator,
and they went home.

700
00:38:47,158 --> 00:38:49,994
and someone was waiting for him there.

701
00:38:56,033 --> 00:38:57,702
when they came back

702
00:38:57,968 --> 00:38:59,570
John got out of the car.

703
00:39:00,871 --> 00:39:04,108
Yoko went ahead,
he walked a few steps ahead of her.

704
00:39:04,642 --> 00:39:06,410
and John followed.

705
00:39:06,477 --> 00:39:11,382
He glanced at a guy in the shadows.

706
00:39:14,251 --> 00:39:17,188
The young man ran out of the window,
And he gave birth in his name.

707
00:39:17,254 --> 00:39:21,625
He was a former fan,
who slept with him unscrupulously

708
00:39:21,692 --> 00:39:24,061
the cover of the Double Fantasy album.

709
00:39:25,830 --> 00:39:28,666
A no, who lives above the yard
in the Dakota house,

710
00:39:28,733 --> 00:39:31,268
heard the gunshots...

711
00:39:34,538 --> 00:39:37,975
...seven, eight, five floors up
drifting in the yard of the Dakota house,

712
00:39:38,042 --> 00:39:39,777
which turned up the volume.

713
00:39:42,246 --> 00:39:45,850
We were just about to leave Ors,

714
00:39:45,916 --> 00:39:48,953
when it was announced in the radio station.

715
00:39:49,019 --> 00:39:51,655
Shots rang out
at Nyugati 72. utca no. 1.

716
00:39:53,591 --> 00:39:56,594
We immediately left for the place.

717
00:39:56,660 --> 00:40:00,030
I saw a man lying on the ground,
stretched out

718
00:40:00,097 --> 00:40:01,932
with outstretched arms,

719
00:40:01,999 --> 00:40:05,569
like someone running
tripped and fell.

720
00:40:05,636 --> 00:40:06,937
There was a no.

721
00:40:07,004 --> 00:40:09,440
He was sprawled over him,
in a state of shock,

722
00:40:09,507 --> 00:40:10,975
It was Yoko Ono.

723
00:40:19,650 --> 00:40:24,321
72nd Street and Amsterdam Avenue
we parked at an intersection,

724
00:40:24,388 --> 00:40:27,391
then the alarm came
possible shooters

725
00:40:27,458 --> 00:40:29,226
near the Dakota house.

726
00:40:29,293 --> 00:40:31,128
Our company is distributed throughout the country.

727
00:40:31,195 --> 00:40:35,065
They got out of the limousine
and they entered the gate.

728
00:40:35,132 --> 00:40:37,802
Then suddenly I heard five, six shots,
and that was it.

729
00:40:39,670 --> 00:40:43,073
As I walked across the street,
a guy ran up to me.

730
00:40:43,140 --> 00:40:46,143
He said, "Sure, sure!
A man is shooting there."

731
00:40:46,210 --> 00:40:49,447
In an instant he sped in front of me
my whole life.

732
00:40:49,513 --> 00:40:52,116
You know, we have to go inside
And we have to put an end to it.

733
00:40:52,183 --> 00:40:53,651
A couple of seconds later

734
00:40:53,717 --> 00:40:56,954
Herb Frauenberger arrived
and Tony Palma.

735
00:40:58,155 --> 00:41:00,357
I saw the bullet marks in the glass,

736
00:41:01,125 --> 00:41:03,394
Then we realized that this... this is true.

737
00:41:03,527 --> 00:41:05,529
BUN�GYI PLACE - SHOPPING AREA
DO NOT ENTER

738
00:41:05,596 --> 00:41:07,298
The porter, Jose, told me.

739
00:41:07,364 --> 00:41:08,866
He said, "The guy in the big box."

740
00:41:08,933 --> 00:41:11,836
He could have been a banker.
He would probably be the last,

741
00:41:11,902 --> 00:41:14,104
who you think
to lelo someone.

742
00:41:14,538 --> 00:41:17,408
He had a copy of Zabhegyezo.

743
00:41:17,475 --> 00:41:18,943
Steve threw the guy against the wall.

744
00:41:19,009 --> 00:41:21,946
He actually read the book.
He put the gun away.

745
00:41:25,382 --> 00:41:27,618
He said, "Sorry,
that I ruined the evening."

746
00:41:27,685 --> 00:41:29,119
To this: "Did you spoil my evening?"

747
00:41:29,186 --> 00:41:31,822
I said, "You know you just did it
your whole life for us?"

748
00:41:32,189 --> 00:41:34,959
Then he started talking
about a big man inside

749
00:41:35,025 --> 00:41:36,560
and about a little man.

750
00:41:36,627 --> 00:41:39,497
"Tonight," he said,
"the little man won the battle."

751
00:41:42,233 --> 00:41:46,303
John Lennon was shot by a .38 caliber,

752
00:41:46,370 --> 00:41:47,705
shot with a short-barreled revolver,

753
00:41:47,771 --> 00:41:51,008
with something like that
we used to wear it outside of service.

754
00:41:51,075 --> 00:41:53,944
Palma j�ror, what happened,
when did you answer the call?

755
00:41:54,011 --> 00:41:56,080
It was reported that someone was caught

756
00:41:56,146 --> 00:41:59,717
and when I asked who it was,
I was brought into the office.

757
00:41:59,783 --> 00:42:01,819
I ran into the office,

758
00:42:01,886 --> 00:42:06,423
a man was lying on the floor,
his wife stood above him.

759
00:42:06,490 --> 00:42:07,958
Did you know who it was?

760
00:42:08,025 --> 00:42:09,793
Not yet then.

761
00:42:09,860 --> 00:42:11,295
He was lying face down.

762
00:42:11,362 --> 00:42:13,497
Herbie and I translated,

763
00:42:14,231 --> 00:42:16,567
blood flowed from his mouth.

764
00:42:16,634 --> 00:42:18,936
He lost a lot of blood from his chest.

765
00:42:19,003 --> 00:42:21,105
He was still alive then.

766
00:42:21,171 --> 00:42:25,109
When I saw his face, I said:
"I know this guy from somewhere."

767
00:42:25,175 --> 00:42:28,178
But I couldn't put it anywhere. Then suddenly

768
00:42:28,245 --> 00:42:31,549
a voice behind me said:
"This is John Lennon."

769
00:42:31,615 --> 00:42:33,584
Naturally, I noticed it too.

770
00:42:33,651 --> 00:42:35,753
I said, "Holy shit, that's John Lennon."

771
00:42:35,819 --> 00:42:38,455
Then Tony said:
"No, that's not John Lennon."

772
00:42:38,522 --> 00:42:41,892
I looked at Tony and said:
"Tony, this is John Lennon. Trust me!"

773
00:42:42,026 --> 00:42:44,028
POLICE LINE
NO TRESPASSING - POLICE OFFICER

774
00:42:46,063 --> 00:42:48,198
John was put in a police car
for a week.

775
00:42:48,265 --> 00:42:50,568
We couldn't stand there idly
his mentor beat.

776
00:42:50,634 --> 00:42:52,803
Raised from the earth,

777
00:42:52,870 --> 00:42:55,306
and they took me about 50 meters away.

778
00:42:55,372 --> 00:42:56,373
Where did you fall?

779
00:42:56,473 --> 00:42:59,810
In the store entrance of the Dakota house,
where cars drive in.

780
00:42:59,877 --> 00:43:03,681
We put John face down on the floor,

781
00:43:03,747 --> 00:43:07,217
so as not to suffocate
Blood is leaking from the breast.

782
00:43:07,284 --> 00:43:09,787
He didn't look good.
He received at least four bullets.

783
00:43:09,853 --> 00:43:11,021
I closed the door.

784
00:43:11,088 --> 00:43:13,090
I said:
"To the Roosevelt, as fast as possible!"

785
00:43:13,157 --> 00:43:15,225
"As you can see, he's not doing well."

786
00:43:15,292 --> 00:43:17,494
Then Yoko came to tell me,

787
00:43:17,561 --> 00:43:20,764
but you know
Lennon was put to death in the hospital.

788
00:43:20,831 --> 00:43:24,935
So I grabbed Yoko and said:
"Come on, I'll take you in the other car."

789
00:43:26,837 --> 00:43:28,005
He was in a state of shock.

790
00:43:28,072 --> 00:43:29,607
He kept asking, "Are you okay?"

791
00:43:29,673 --> 00:43:31,141
"Will it be okay?"

792
00:43:31,208 --> 00:43:33,210
I drove and Herbie...

793
00:43:33,277 --> 00:43:35,346
he tried to calm her down.

794
00:43:35,412 --> 00:43:38,849
I thought, "This is not going to work."

795
00:43:38,916 --> 00:43:42,152
I was there in 1980
the deputy spinner at night

796
00:43:42,219 --> 00:43:44,722
in the emergency department of Roosevelt Parish.

797
00:43:44,788 --> 00:43:49,093
My working time is the 70s and 80s
For years, it lasted from four in the morning until noon.

798
00:43:49,159 --> 00:43:50,694
I picked up the phone

799
00:43:50,761 --> 00:43:53,430
they just said
that someone arrives with a wound

800
00:43:53,497 --> 00:43:56,100
it will be brought by a police car from the emergency police station.

801
00:43:56,867 --> 00:44:00,804
If we had heard it in the radio,
who was cast

802
00:44:00,871 --> 00:44:03,273
this news would have spread quickly.

803
00:44:03,340 --> 00:44:05,576
It was a straight shot.

804
00:44:05,643 --> 00:44:07,778
Young, healthy, white wine man.

805
00:44:07,845 --> 00:44:10,080
It seems like routine progress.

806
00:44:10,147 --> 00:44:13,550
I called the chief surgical resident.

807
00:44:13,617 --> 00:44:14,852
It was Dr. Halleran.

808
00:44:14,918 --> 00:44:17,287
I rushed to the emergency room,
I asked: "Who did they bring?"

809
00:44:17,354 --> 00:44:19,590
They said, "A man
lott with a chest wound."

810
00:44:21,892 --> 00:44:26,163
That was it
The night of December 8, 1980.

811
00:44:26,230 --> 00:44:27,965
I rode a motorcycle.

812
00:44:28,032 --> 00:44:29,299
I was in Central Park.

813
00:44:29,366 --> 00:44:33,971
According to him, a taxi hit him.

814
00:44:34,038 --> 00:44:38,208
I spent it in a Mentoaut,
which took me to the Roosevelt Hospital.

815
00:44:38,275 --> 00:44:41,745
There was blood in the corridor, which was not unusual.

816
00:44:41,812 --> 00:44:44,214
because there were always people in the corridor,

817
00:44:44,281 --> 00:44:45,883
as this is a small emergency department.

818
00:44:45,949 --> 00:44:48,619
I was lying in the corridor

819
00:44:48,686 --> 00:44:51,488
when the door suddenly opened behind me,

820
00:44:51,555 --> 00:44:53,223
and someone ran screaming

821
00:44:53,290 --> 00:44:55,359
"Late wound. Late chest wound."

822
00:44:55,426 --> 00:44:56,927
"It's coming now."

823
00:44:56,994 --> 00:44:59,163
Then this person was brought in

824
00:44:59,229 --> 00:45:02,833
to that place, according to
which I was lying in front of.

825
00:45:05,102 --> 00:45:09,006
I was taken to that room,
which we called small muton.

826
00:45:09,073 --> 00:45:11,975
It was equipped with everything you need

827
00:45:12,042 --> 00:45:13,577
for healing wounds.

828
00:45:13,644 --> 00:45:15,412
We had someone with four entry wounds

829
00:45:15,479 --> 00:45:18,816
in the left chest
And with three exit wounds on the thigh.

830
00:45:18,882 --> 00:45:22,019
We started soon.
The novâres and the sleeping novâre.

831
00:45:22,086 --> 00:45:24,254
Someone blocked the breathing tube.

832
00:45:24,321 --> 00:45:26,824
Others used scissors to remove the clothes from him.

833
00:45:28,025 --> 00:45:32,262
He wore a wine jacket,
which had a fur collar.

834
00:45:32,830 --> 00:45:35,332
He immediately opened the chest,

835
00:45:35,399 --> 00:45:39,837
took hold of the sword, took the lead,
and his hand was in his chest.

836
00:45:39,903 --> 00:45:41,071
Everything was full of blood.

837
00:45:41,138 --> 00:45:43,674
The chest cavity was full of blood.

838
00:45:43,741 --> 00:45:44,842
His hair was flat,

839
00:45:44,908 --> 00:45:47,277
which meant
that there is no blood on it.

840
00:45:47,344 --> 00:45:50,214
I entered the room.
All his clothes were taken off.

841
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,416
He looked at my feet.

842
00:45:52,716 --> 00:45:54,184
The chest was opened.

843
00:45:54,251 --> 00:45:56,987
The medical examination
He stood in a circle around him.

844
00:45:57,054 --> 00:46:00,457
They literally tried it by hand
to pump the heart,

845
00:46:00,524 --> 00:46:02,392
to get the blood flowing.

846
00:46:04,495 --> 00:46:06,730
Then I heard someone cry.

847
00:46:06,797 --> 00:46:11,602
A woman from Xia came in wearing a mink fur coat,

848
00:46:11,668 --> 00:46:16,807
sobbing
he was supported by a large policeman in a wine jacket.

849
00:46:16,874 --> 00:46:18,275
They didn't bring in a dead body.

850
00:46:18,342 --> 00:46:20,611
A mortal wound
they brought a suffering man.

851
00:46:20,677 --> 00:46:22,980
Either you don't like it, or...

852
00:46:23,046 --> 00:46:25,649
Maybe there is a small chance of winter.

853
00:46:38,796 --> 00:46:43,634
As for that December 8, 1980
It happened at night...

854
00:46:46,336 --> 00:46:47,738
It's unimaginable.

855
00:46:47,805 --> 00:46:52,309
It's so heightened physically
I was in the mood to...

856
00:46:53,811 --> 00:46:57,347
Like now, as if I'm watching the whole thing.

857
00:46:58,649 --> 00:47:00,250
About that night

858
00:47:00,317 --> 00:47:03,253
I remember everything crystal clear.

859
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,556
It was like a football game.

860
00:47:05,622 --> 00:47:06,924
Everything happened at once.

861
00:47:06,990 --> 00:47:08,625
We pumped the heart in rhythm.

862
00:47:08,692 --> 00:47:10,494
This was what we had to do.

863
00:47:10,561 --> 00:47:14,431
You do your job and you think
how is it

864
00:47:14,498 --> 00:47:17,701
until the moment comes
when you already know he won't.

865
00:47:20,304 --> 00:47:22,039
Just then someone said:

866
00:47:22,105 --> 00:47:23,707
"He looks like John Lennon."

867
00:47:27,511 --> 00:47:29,179
I think I'm speechless.

868
00:47:29,246 --> 00:47:31,515
It's not just that
the opening of anyone's chest.

869
00:47:31,582 --> 00:47:33,717
You stop for a moment, but still...

870
00:47:33,784 --> 00:47:37,154
You are in the middle of sharing,
literally no... you won't stop.

871
00:47:37,221 --> 00:47:39,890
Because he was so famous,
I had to call security

872
00:47:39,957 --> 00:47:41,558
we had to close the entrance.

873
00:47:41,625 --> 00:47:45,128
I had to do it
the hospital administration.

874
00:47:45,395 --> 00:47:50,267
S�RGOSS�GI DEPARTMENT
ROOSEVELT DISTRICT

875
00:47:50,334 --> 00:47:54,071
My wife came to the study in tears,

876
00:47:54,805 --> 00:47:58,408
And he said, "To Roosevelt Parish
you must come. John was shot."

877
00:47:58,475 --> 00:48:00,911
Short John
the friend of the woman who arrived

878
00:48:00,978 --> 00:48:03,146
including Jack Douglas, the record producer,

879
00:48:03,213 --> 00:48:05,883
who was with Lennon earlier that day
worked in the studio.

880
00:48:05,949 --> 00:48:09,286
It sounded incredible.

881
00:48:09,953 --> 00:48:12,189
-Tell me I'm here.
- He is our closest friend.

882
00:48:12,256 --> 00:48:14,358
Five minutes before leaving for home
we got divorced.

883
00:48:14,424 --> 00:48:15,425
Wait, miss!

884
00:48:15,492 --> 00:48:17,227
O is John's best friend. No.

885
00:48:17,294 --> 00:48:18,362
He needs someone.

886
00:48:19,263 --> 00:48:21,398
I'm completely out of it.

887
00:48:30,641 --> 00:48:32,276
The end is here.

888
00:48:34,711 --> 00:48:38,448
I lay there
my eyes are closed, my head hurts.

889
00:48:38,515 --> 00:48:39,917
And the two policemen came out.

890
00:48:39,983 --> 00:48:44,087
and one said to the other:
"Can you believe it? John Lennon."

891
00:48:44,821 --> 00:48:46,156
I opened my eyes and looked up.

892
00:48:46,223 --> 00:48:49,426
I said, "Sorry, sure,
what did he say?"

893
00:48:49,693 --> 00:48:53,697
Then he leaned against the wall,

894
00:48:54,264 --> 00:48:56,566
to enter the room.

895
00:48:56,967 --> 00:48:59,369
Then one of the security or
he said to me

896
00:48:59,436 --> 00:49:00,904
"Do you know who this is?"

897
00:49:00,971 --> 00:49:03,640
I replied, "Yes, Mr. Weiss."

898
00:49:03,707 --> 00:49:06,543
Erre o: "A reporter."

899
00:49:10,047 --> 00:49:13,016
I was there in 1980

900
00:49:13,083 --> 00:49:17,020
starts at six on Channel 7
Producer of optical news.

901
00:49:17,087 --> 00:49:20,123
We definitely need that material, okay?

902
00:49:20,190 --> 00:49:22,626
As a producer of a series of pears
it is your responsibility to resolve

903
00:49:22,693 --> 00:49:25,062
what kind of news should be broadcast,

904
00:49:25,128 --> 00:49:27,097
judging by the accuracy of the news.

905
00:49:27,164 --> 00:49:31,368
I said:
"Get him out of the corridor quickly."

906
00:49:31,435 --> 00:49:33,637
That he went to the emergency room that very day,

907
00:49:33,704 --> 00:49:35,639
when any other day
it would have been boring

908
00:49:35,706 --> 00:49:37,741
a long wait there?

909
00:49:40,410 --> 00:49:44,448
I really wasn't sure
that I heard "John Lennon".

910
00:49:44,514 --> 00:49:45,716
Who would have believed it?

911
00:49:45,782 --> 00:49:47,985
Who would have believed that the patient

912
00:49:48,051 --> 00:49:51,054
who was brought in with the
that "chest wound",

913
00:49:51,121 --> 00:49:53,523
the world history
one of the most famous bands

914
00:49:53,590 --> 00:49:56,827
can one be a member?

915
00:49:56,893 --> 00:49:59,696
He greeted her and took her to the shopkeeper's office

916
00:49:59,763 --> 00:50:03,133
and he found it in a small vestibule
a lone gunman.

917
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,702
We read you your rights, took away your gun,

918
00:50:05,769 --> 00:50:07,938
the data of the eye doctors were recorded,

919
00:50:08,005 --> 00:50:11,108
we took care of it
to make all arrangements.

920
00:50:11,174 --> 00:50:13,343
Was it cool? What did he look like?

921
00:50:13,410 --> 00:50:15,278
I said before that he felt calm.

922
00:50:15,345 --> 00:50:16,446
Peter Cullen Jr

923
00:50:16,513 --> 00:50:20,150
There were a lot of policemen at the police station.

924
00:50:20,217 --> 00:50:24,121
He was there on Saturday
And Mr. Lennon asked back.

925
00:50:24,187 --> 00:50:27,691
He was there on Sunday too,
and Mr. Lennon asked back.

926
00:50:27,758 --> 00:50:29,393
and he was there that afternoon as well.

927
00:50:29,459 --> 00:50:31,028
He seemed to be a fan.

928
00:50:31,094 --> 00:50:33,530
I couldn't figure out what brought him on.
to loi�n.

929
00:50:33,597 --> 00:50:36,800
What drives people
how to shoot someone?

930
00:50:36,867 --> 00:50:38,502
I don't know. I can't answer.

931
00:50:41,004 --> 00:50:45,308
Why couldn't I say that?
the security measures:

932
00:50:45,375 --> 00:50:47,377
"Shouldn't have left it there"?

933
00:50:47,444 --> 00:50:50,447
To this day, I can't believe it.

934
00:50:50,514 --> 00:50:53,850
You know, there's always someone
who wants to gain

935
00:50:53,917 --> 00:50:56,319
on the reputation and creativity of others,

936
00:50:56,386 --> 00:50:57,888
and there is no other option for this.

937
00:50:57,954 --> 00:51:00,891
It will go the furthest if it eats you up.

938
00:51:02,692 --> 00:51:04,661
I know that sounds a little bloodthirsty.

939
00:51:04,728 --> 00:51:07,431
i don't think
that anyone else is a professional health care provider

940
00:51:07,497 --> 00:51:13,303
he wouldn't have thought that he wasn't the best
completed his work to the best of his knowledge,

941
00:51:13,503 --> 00:51:16,973
if you don't try everything
it is possible to deliver the news.

942
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,910
The reporter's �st�nei caught a whiff.

943
00:51:19,976 --> 00:51:23,280
He was a reporter and he did
which reporters are used to.

944
00:51:23,346 --> 00:51:26,383
But there was a case for me that night.

945
00:51:26,450 --> 00:51:28,251
I woke up with a word,

946
00:51:28,318 --> 00:51:31,822
And I jumped on one leg.

947
00:51:32,289 --> 00:51:36,860
I walked down the corridor,
and this voice said, "Where is he going?"

948
00:51:36,927 --> 00:51:40,831
I asked:
"Would you allow me to make a phone call?"

949
00:51:40,897 --> 00:51:44,534
He picked up the phone and Channel 7 was on
I called a spectacle of optical news.

950
00:51:44,601 --> 00:51:48,572
I said, "I know
that I've beaten my head, but listen until the end!"

951
00:51:48,638 --> 00:51:52,142
"I think
John Lennon was shot tonight."

952
00:51:53,143 --> 00:51:55,312
The show editor said:

953
00:51:55,378 --> 00:52:00,484
"I heard them calling for help
to 72nd Street, Central Park West.

954
00:52:00,550 --> 00:52:03,019
"There's the Dakota house."
I said, "Yes, it is."

955
00:52:03,086 --> 00:52:04,754
"This is the third piece of the puzzle."

956
00:52:04,821 --> 00:52:06,690
I heard John Lennon's name.

957
00:52:06,756 --> 00:52:10,327
I saw a note from Xia,
who I already knew for sure was Yoko Ono.

958
00:52:10,393 --> 00:52:12,629
and you say they called me a mentor

959
00:52:12,696 --> 00:52:14,264
to Central Park West, 72nd Street?

960
00:52:14,331 --> 00:52:15,932
Get here as fast as you can!

961
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,402
About 45 minutes
we tried to save it.

962
00:52:19,469 --> 00:52:21,605
Pulse, blood pressure. He didn't wake up.

963
00:52:21,671 --> 00:52:24,174
and in the room
a gloomy mood prevailed.

964
00:52:24,241 --> 00:52:26,309
Finally everyone was with him,

965
00:52:26,376 --> 00:52:29,179
"Ok�, this is John Lennon. That's it."

966
00:52:29,246 --> 00:52:32,482
But at some point we all do
we agreed that it was over.

967
00:52:40,056 --> 00:52:43,293
My work does not last until death,
or until they bury me,

968
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:44,961
And I hope that it will be for a long time to come.

969
00:52:45,462 --> 00:52:47,898
When John talked about death,

970
00:52:47,964 --> 00:52:52,936
and he wished
to have many, many more years to come,

971
00:52:53,003 --> 00:52:54,905
he hoped that

972
00:52:54,971 --> 00:52:58,775
this is the most moving part of the interview,

973
00:52:58,842 --> 00:53:01,678
considering the events of that day.

974
00:53:02,012 --> 00:53:03,914
As long as we live, we hope.

975
00:53:06,917 --> 00:53:12,255
I heard a �les noi scream,
It was Yoko Ono

976
00:53:12,722 --> 00:53:17,994
who is record producer David Geffen
she sobbed in his arms.

977
00:53:18,628 --> 00:53:20,096
I picked up the phone

978
00:53:20,530 --> 00:53:22,132
and I said:

979
00:53:22,599 --> 00:53:25,902
"Deeds confirmed: John Lennon is dead."

980
00:53:29,372 --> 00:53:30,840
Then the news started.

981
00:53:30,907 --> 00:53:32,842
Inside a room
heard all over the world.

982
00:53:32,909 --> 00:53:37,581
The news of an unspeakable tragedy
confirmed by ABC News.

983
00:53:38,582 --> 00:53:41,685
My eyes remained closed.
My collar fell off.

984
00:53:50,327 --> 00:53:51,895
It's amazing what adrenaline does.

985
00:53:51,962 --> 00:53:56,333
I felt no pain,
except for the pounding in my head

986
00:53:56,399 --> 00:53:59,236
I couldn't believe it
that this will actually happen.

987
00:53:59,302 --> 00:54:03,940
That's why I called Channel 7
Editor of the Optometry news show.

988
00:54:04,007 --> 00:54:07,277
The editor-in-charge called him
the ABC channel,

989
00:54:07,344 --> 00:54:11,014
and reported
that he is a producer of influential news

990
00:54:11,081 --> 00:54:12,716
it's in roosevelt circle

991
00:54:12,782 --> 00:54:16,820
And he was strengthened
Regarding the death of John Lennon.

992
00:54:18,521 --> 00:54:21,925
Monday night football went on.
I think it was longer.

993
00:54:27,530 --> 00:54:29,399
Then Howard Cosell noticed,

994
00:54:29,466 --> 00:54:33,203
that this story is bigger,
like that football game.

995
00:54:33,270 --> 00:54:35,805
What is the ethical solution in this case?

996
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:43,179
I think the situation of the game does not allow
to deliver the news. Do you think so?

997
00:54:43,713 --> 00:54:45,148
Absolutely. I think so.

998
00:54:45,215 --> 00:54:47,550
-Yes?
-You can be sure of it.

999
00:54:47,617 --> 00:54:49,452
If we know, we will submit it.

1000
00:54:49,519 --> 00:54:53,490
Howard Cosell didn't want to talk about it,

1001
00:54:53,556 --> 00:54:56,393
but the manager of the ABC channel said

1002
00:54:56,459 --> 00:54:58,662
of this news anyway
you have to go on air.

1003
00:54:58,728 --> 00:55:01,298
John Lennon,
perhaps the most famous member of the Beatles,

1004
00:55:01,364 --> 00:55:03,433
at the gate of the house,

1005
00:55:03,500 --> 00:55:06,336
in western New York,

1006
00:55:06,403 --> 00:55:10,840
I got hit twice,
then he was taken to the Roosevelt hospital.

1007
00:55:10,907 --> 00:55:13,209
He died in Mentoben.

1008
00:55:14,144 --> 00:55:18,348
The crowd held its breath,
when the weather went down.

1009
00:55:20,750 --> 00:55:24,654
It is difficult to return to the game
after such an extraordinary news.

1010
00:55:24,721 --> 00:55:27,691
Man for those musicians
or you think of celebrities,

1011
00:55:27,757 --> 00:55:29,392
who are already dead.

1012
00:55:29,459 --> 00:55:34,364
Food poisoning, suicide, accident.

1013
00:55:34,831 --> 00:55:40,303
A fan shoots him at the gate of their house,

1014
00:55:40,370 --> 00:55:43,006
when he goes home to scold the boy.

1015
00:55:43,073 --> 00:55:44,774
This is a very...

1016
00:55:45,775 --> 00:55:48,678
An upsetting story.

1017
00:55:49,612 --> 00:55:52,515
I just asked for photos
in the baking room,

1018
00:55:52,582 --> 00:55:56,086
when one of my friends called me
from California.

1019
00:55:56,152 --> 00:55:59,723
He said, "I just heard in the radio,
that John Lennon is dead."

1020
00:56:00,223 --> 00:56:01,458
I remember it was the news

1021
00:56:01,558 --> 00:56:03,993
the most lasting I've ever heard.

1022
00:56:05,895 --> 00:56:08,798
I immediately went into Roosevelt Parish,

1023
00:56:08,865 --> 00:56:10,300
and when i got there

1024
00:56:10,367 --> 00:56:13,436
I saw Yok through the vegetable gate.

1025
00:56:13,503 --> 00:56:18,074
I saw him find someone

1026
00:56:18,141 --> 00:56:20,677
she squeezed it between tears.

1027
00:56:20,744 --> 00:56:24,481
It was as if I felt the memory.

1028
00:56:26,783 --> 00:56:28,118
You know, the act of an idiot

1029
00:56:28,184 --> 00:56:31,154
it can suddenly change everything.

1030
00:56:31,287 --> 00:56:36,259
John Lennon sang
he was happy and excited about his album,

1031
00:56:36,326 --> 00:56:38,661
and a minute later he was dead.

1032
00:56:39,396 --> 00:56:43,166
I was there with Yok at the church,
I took him home that night.

1033
00:56:43,233 --> 00:56:46,169
He took a picture of me,

1034
00:56:46,236 --> 00:56:49,773
York and David Geffenrol,
as soon as we leave the church.

1035
00:56:49,839 --> 00:56:52,609
Yoko headed home to the Dakota house.

1036
00:56:52,675 --> 00:56:55,078
In front of the house, the knowledge was

1037
00:56:55,145 --> 00:56:56,780
it was a complete horror.

1038
00:56:58,915 --> 00:57:02,051
Crowds were waiting for
to be touched just because...

1039
00:57:02,118 --> 00:57:03,420
Because he died in my arms.

1040
00:57:03,787 --> 00:57:06,289
I needed a police escort
to get out.

1041
00:57:06,356 --> 00:57:08,024
I sent it out, and unfortunately

1042
00:57:08,091 --> 00:57:10,593
my pants were covered in blood

1043
00:57:10,660 --> 00:57:12,228
the bottom of my white pants.

1044
00:57:12,295 --> 00:57:15,598
There was an idiot on the street,
who decided

1045
00:57:15,665 --> 00:57:18,568
to offer me
Five hundred dollars for my pants.

1046
00:57:19,269 --> 00:57:23,072
Every effort was made,
to write

1047
00:57:23,139 --> 00:57:24,808
but they did not succeed.

1048
00:57:24,874 --> 00:57:26,643
They tried blood transfusions.

1049
00:57:26,709 --> 00:57:28,178
Nothing could save his life.

1050
00:57:28,244 --> 00:57:30,046
This could not be changed.

1051
00:57:30,113 --> 00:57:31,448
It couldn't be fixed.

1052
00:57:31,514 --> 00:57:33,149
It couldn't be fixed.

1053
00:57:33,216 --> 00:57:36,186
I remember dreaming
I collapsed on the floor.

1054
00:57:36,252 --> 00:57:38,721
Then the phone rang several more times.

1055
00:57:39,489 --> 00:57:41,758
Then I realized
that the whole world is watching.

1056
00:57:41,825 --> 00:57:44,260
The world is late tonight
one of the greatest eload artists,

1057
00:57:44,327 --> 00:57:47,030
John Lennon, musician,
the former Beatles member,

1058
00:57:47,096 --> 00:57:49,599
shot in front of his New York apartment.

1059
00:57:49,666 --> 00:57:53,903
I thought:
"How could something like this happen in my city?"

1060
00:57:53,970 --> 00:57:55,638
You know, I...

1061
00:57:56,606 --> 00:57:58,341
I lost my voice.

1062
00:57:58,408 --> 00:57:59,843
No one knew what to do.

1063
00:57:59,909 --> 00:58:02,745
Like when you have no idea
what to think

1064
00:58:02,812 --> 00:58:05,715
and then immediately

1065
00:58:07,250 --> 00:58:10,753
all close to John Lennon
wants to turn to for comfort.

1066
00:58:11,387 --> 00:58:13,623
A huge crowd of fans gathered

1067
00:58:13,690 --> 00:58:17,494
on 72nd Street in Central Park West.

1068
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,663
I remember how touched I was by all this.

1069
00:58:21,865 --> 00:58:27,203
My primary role was to
to be by Yoko's side.

1070
00:58:28,972 --> 00:58:31,274
He was inconsolable.

1071
00:58:32,775 --> 00:58:35,378
We both heard

1072
00:58:35,445 --> 00:58:39,482
as the children danced in the street.

1073
00:58:46,456 --> 00:58:48,091
The vigil before the party,

1074
00:58:48,157 --> 00:58:50,493
where John Lennon and Yoko Ono lived,

1075
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:52,295
it opened into the night.

1076
00:58:52,362 --> 00:58:53,963
He was in there, all of a sudden.

1077
00:58:54,030 --> 00:58:56,399
And he had to listen to these people

1078
00:58:56,466 --> 00:58:59,369
in front of their house
as they sang John's songs.

1079
00:58:59,435 --> 00:59:00,803
He couldn't run away.

1080
00:59:00,870 --> 00:59:04,340
I got a call from Roosevelt Parish.

1081
00:59:04,407 --> 00:59:08,978
They wanted to return John's belongings.

1082
00:59:09,846 --> 00:59:13,283
The bloodshot eyes...

1083
00:59:14,817 --> 00:59:16,386
and the disc.

1084
00:59:17,053 --> 00:59:19,589
It was all that was left of John...

1085
00:59:22,191 --> 00:59:23,993
In this brown paper bag.

1086
00:59:24,928 --> 00:59:26,062
My God!

1087
00:59:27,230 --> 00:59:29,832
Why would anyone want to do this
With John Lennon?

1088
00:59:29,899 --> 00:59:31,167
I asked him:

1089
00:59:31,234 --> 00:59:34,103
"Do you realize what you've done?"

1090
00:59:34,170 --> 00:59:36,839
He looked at me and said:

1091
00:59:36,906 --> 00:59:38,341
"I killed myself."

1092
00:59:38,408 --> 00:59:40,810
He said, "I'm John Lennon."

1093
00:59:40,877 --> 00:59:42,946
I thought he was screaming.

1094
00:59:49,452 --> 00:59:52,221
Sad news dawned on the world today.

1095
00:59:52,288 --> 00:59:54,791
John Lennon,
former Beatles member, passed away.

1096
00:59:54,857 --> 00:59:57,126
Lennon, the former Beatles member
shot down...

1097
00:59:57,193 --> 00:59:59,095
At least five shots rang out...

1098
00:59:59,162 --> 01:00:01,230
The former Beatle was on the stairs, then

1099
01:00:01,297 --> 01:00:02,899
"It's a terrible lottery," he said, and they took him away...

1100
01:00:03,533 --> 01:00:06,903
John Lennon died here
in New York's Roosevelt District.

1101
01:00:11,140 --> 01:00:14,444
I once heard from someone
that is the most outrageous word

1102
01:00:14,510 --> 01:00:16,746
"dead" in our language.

1103
01:00:17,981 --> 01:00:19,682
I felt it too.

1104
01:00:24,153 --> 01:00:26,689
He was more than a president or a pope.

1105
01:00:27,056 --> 01:00:30,093
That was John Lennon.
A true cultural icon.

1106
01:00:31,427 --> 01:00:33,796
A vigil was held in front of the Dakota house

1107
01:00:33,863 --> 01:00:35,431
all those who love and...

1108
01:00:35,498 --> 01:00:36,766
It was a moment

1109
01:00:36,833 --> 01:00:40,703
like the assassination of John F. Kennedy,

1110
01:00:40,770 --> 01:00:45,241
if you think back on it,
he knows where he was and what he was doing then.

1111
01:00:46,943 --> 01:00:49,846
This happened on all fronts
and culturally different.

1112
01:00:51,381 --> 01:00:54,784
It's not very common for someone to have this much
mean to the masses.

1113
01:00:56,285 --> 01:00:58,621
Many people sang with him and the Beatles.

1114
01:00:58,688 --> 01:01:00,890
It had an impact on the world.

1115
01:01:02,625 --> 01:01:05,428
A whole generation,
which is to the music of John Lennon

1116
01:01:05,495 --> 01:01:08,331
danced and sang,
he conquered death today.

1117
01:01:08,398 --> 01:01:11,601
He was a genius and funny.
he gave a lot to people.

1118
01:01:11,668 --> 01:01:13,503
I always liked John because he was a fighter.

1119
01:01:15,772 --> 01:01:17,907
One of the original characters of the century.

1120
01:01:17,974 --> 01:01:19,042
This is not even a question.

1121
01:01:19,108 --> 01:01:20,643
The loss of Lennon, according to some,

1122
01:01:20,710 --> 01:01:22,879
it's like losing a family member.

1123
01:01:22,945 --> 01:01:25,381
I don't believe
that John had any idea

1124
01:01:25,448 --> 01:01:28,384
how important it was to many.

1125
01:01:28,451 --> 01:01:31,487
Music, radio and television
today all over the world

1126
01:01:31,554 --> 01:01:34,824
constantly about Lennon's death
informed.

1127
01:01:34,891 --> 01:01:38,261
They played songs from the Double Fantasy album

1128
01:01:38,327 --> 01:01:39,729
Day by day.

1129
01:01:39,796 --> 01:01:41,864
Only his music could be heard.

1130
01:01:41,931 --> 01:01:44,967
Everyone from Madrid to Moscow saw it
the murder.

1131
01:01:45,034 --> 01:01:47,804
Polish television reported today
about the details,

1132
01:01:47,870 --> 01:01:49,672
so did other Eastern European countries.

1133
01:01:49,739 --> 01:01:51,941
John Lennon, after a two-year absence,

1134
01:01:52,008 --> 01:01:53,910
finally released an LP.

1135
01:01:53,976 --> 01:01:56,312
Today, here in Liverpool and all over Europe

1136
01:01:56,379 --> 01:01:58,247
Lennon's record is sold out.

1137
01:01:58,314 --> 01:02:00,283
Following John's murder

1138
01:02:00,349 --> 01:02:03,052
the album reached the top of the charts.

1139
01:02:03,119 --> 01:02:04,954
They had three snipers.

1140
01:02:05,021 --> 01:02:09,726
In death he truly returned,

1141
01:02:09,792 --> 01:02:11,160
as he wished in his mouth.

1142
01:02:11,227 --> 01:02:13,329
Not only in the music world.

1143
01:02:13,396 --> 01:02:14,731
He was there for everything

1144
01:02:14,797 --> 01:02:17,100
And a small part remained
people exist.

1145
01:02:17,166 --> 01:02:19,035
and now he will never come back.

1146
01:02:19,102 --> 01:02:21,704
Simply unfathomable
how could this happen.

1147
01:02:24,607 --> 01:02:29,812
Julian, who was a teenager at the time,
flew here from England.

1148
01:02:31,881 --> 01:02:34,550
He arrived alone.

1149
01:02:35,184 --> 01:02:38,087
Yoko asked me to

1150
01:02:38,154 --> 01:02:42,091
to keep Julian away from the party,

1151
01:02:42,158 --> 01:02:44,827
away from the events,

1152
01:02:45,194 --> 01:02:48,164
to protect the public
from examination

1153
01:02:48,831 --> 01:02:50,767
and media attention.

1154
01:02:50,833 --> 01:02:53,836
The truth is that none of us knew
how to handle it

1155
01:02:53,903 --> 01:02:58,608
a beast of such volume.

1156
01:03:06,015 --> 01:03:09,085
The NYPD
took a suspect into custody

1157
01:03:09,152 --> 01:03:11,087
Defending the murder of John Lennon.

1158
01:03:11,154 --> 01:03:13,523
By virtue
murder is rational,

1159
01:03:13,589 --> 01:03:14,924
it was a premeditated punishment.

1160
01:03:14,991 --> 01:03:17,426
A confused, fanatical man.

1161
01:03:18,427 --> 01:03:20,229
The Kid Who Shot John Lennon

1162
01:03:20,296 --> 01:03:22,665
was someone
to whom life did not end,

1163
01:03:22,732 --> 01:03:24,000
in any respect.

1164
01:03:24,066 --> 01:03:27,904
But John Lennon's life is everything
can be said to be successful from this point of view.

1165
01:03:28,538 --> 01:03:30,540
The suspect was taken into custody

1166
01:03:30,606 --> 01:03:33,176
the 25 �ves, Hawaii
He has been identified as Mark David Chapman.

1167
01:03:33,242 --> 01:03:35,578
I heard some reports,

1168
01:03:35,645 --> 01:03:38,514
in which they said that they had been captured.

1169
01:03:38,581 --> 01:03:42,118
Suddenly, he was thrown into a frenzy
they defended me with murder.

1170
01:03:42,185 --> 01:03:46,622
Without seeing the picture,
I knew it was him.

1171
01:03:46,689 --> 01:03:50,359
He was with Lennon at the time of the attack
also his wife, Yoko Ono.

1172
01:03:50,426 --> 01:03:53,296
When the doctors told him
that Lennon died

1173
01:03:53,362 --> 01:03:55,131
he exclaimed: "Say it's not true!"

1174
01:03:56,132 --> 01:03:59,435
Yoko, who witnessed this
for the moment

1175
01:03:59,502 --> 01:04:02,071
suffered beyond measure,

1176
01:04:02,138 --> 01:04:04,774
never once uttered the killer's name,

1177
01:04:04,841 --> 01:04:07,109
which I think
they mostly agreed.

1178
01:04:15,318 --> 01:04:17,653
It was a great love, I think.

1179
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:19,522
Lennon thought

1180
01:04:19,589 --> 01:04:21,691
Yoko is the Sun, the Moon and the stars.

1181
01:04:23,059 --> 01:04:24,694
Very impressive, really.

1182
01:04:26,762 --> 01:04:28,631
John happily talked to Yok about it,

1183
01:04:28,698 --> 01:04:30,766
what will it be like when they get old.

1184
01:04:30,833 --> 01:04:32,735
and they imagined they would return to England,

1185
01:04:32,802 --> 01:04:35,571
and in a small coastal settlement
they will be

1186
01:04:35,638 --> 01:04:38,507
Sean will send them postcards

1187
01:04:38,574 --> 01:04:40,743
about his great adventures and travels.

1188
01:04:40,810 --> 01:04:43,613
Ok, as two fan letters,
possibly capitalized,

1189
01:04:43,679 --> 01:04:48,784
they will be swimming on the beach.

1190
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,590
Lennon's wife
Yoko Ono said this afternoon,

1191
01:04:54,657 --> 01:04:56,759
that she does not organize a funeral for her husband.

1192
01:04:56,826 --> 01:04:59,095
Instead, it will be on the week
a certain time when

1193
01:04:59,161 --> 01:05:01,764
all friends and fans
you can pray for the soul together.

1194
01:05:06,235 --> 01:05:10,072
When Yok� had to tell
to Sean that his father is not coming home,

1195
01:05:10,139 --> 01:05:11,274
that he died

1196
01:05:11,340 --> 01:05:13,309
Sean said: "It's everywhere now."

1197
01:05:19,181 --> 01:05:21,918
and I think that was one of the things

1198
01:05:21,984 --> 01:05:24,921
which made Yok
to ask for ten minutes of silence

1199
01:05:24,987 --> 01:05:27,056
everyone in the whole world

1200
01:05:27,123 --> 01:05:30,660
because John is everywhere from then on
and was present in everything.

1201
01:05:35,831 --> 01:05:39,402
That Sunday in Central Park
it was really incredible.

1202
01:05:43,572 --> 01:05:46,175
We went outside for a walk,
of which ten minutes

1203
01:05:46,242 --> 01:05:48,411
it was a time of silence.

1204
01:05:48,477 --> 01:05:51,447
We also took several cameras with us.

1205
01:05:54,917 --> 01:05:58,621
And the moment came when
the only thing that could be heard

1206
01:05:58,688 --> 01:06:01,457
the news helicopter had a rotor.

1207
01:06:11,667 --> 01:06:13,169
The tears I saw

1208
01:06:13,235 --> 01:06:16,472
sadness, victory,

1209
01:06:16,539 --> 01:06:19,275
all this was due to

1210
01:06:19,342 --> 01:06:22,678
that this man, John Lennon,

1211
01:06:22,745 --> 01:06:24,313
how many people's lives he touched.

1212
01:06:24,413 --> 01:06:25,948
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

1213
01:06:26,015 --> 01:06:27,917
JOHN, WE HOPE FOR PEACE

1214
01:06:32,455 --> 01:06:36,092
Yoko wanted the world to stop
for a moment, taking a deep breath,

1215
01:06:36,759 --> 01:06:39,061
And he listens to his own cheese.

1216
01:06:49,138 --> 01:06:51,173
It was really incredible.

1217
01:06:51,307 --> 01:06:57,747
WE LOVE YOU JOHN
1940 - 1980

1218
01:07:07,123 --> 01:07:10,226
She never wanted to be a widow.

1219
01:07:11,027 --> 01:07:13,496
He took it hard.

1220
01:07:17,566 --> 01:07:20,369
In the weeks following John's death

1221
01:07:20,936 --> 01:07:23,906
from days to nights,
the nights became days.

1222
01:07:24,573 --> 01:07:26,442
The days went by.

1223
01:07:29,045 --> 01:07:31,313
Yoko finally went back to school,

1224
01:07:31,380 --> 01:07:34,417
and finished the disc,
on which they were working on the day of the murder.

1225
01:07:35,284 --> 01:07:38,421
When the album was released,
i went to the dakota house

1226
01:07:38,487 --> 01:07:40,756
And I listened to the last word.

1227
01:07:48,697 --> 01:07:52,868
As we listened,
the sun rose over Central Park.

1228
01:07:52,935 --> 01:07:55,805
Sean woke up and walked inside
at his mother's breast.

1229
01:07:55,871 --> 01:07:59,375
They were like
like the Madonna and child.

1230
01:07:59,442 --> 01:08:02,778
I managed to grab my camera
And I took some photos.

1231
01:08:05,181 --> 01:08:08,117
It was on Mother's Day in 1981.

1232
01:08:11,353 --> 01:08:14,790
With the loss of his father
Sean was stripped of everything,

1233
01:08:14,857 --> 01:08:18,327
what he did after he got older
He could have done with it.

1234
01:08:21,197 --> 01:08:22,832
If it hadn't been for Sean

1235
01:08:22,898 --> 01:08:25,668
I would have left a tap and a priest,

1236
01:08:25,734 --> 01:08:27,837
I would have invested in a hotel,

1237
01:08:27,903 --> 01:08:31,373
And every night in some kind of skin
I would have put it out or something.

1238
01:08:31,440 --> 01:08:33,476
I shouldn't have done anything.

1239
01:08:33,542 --> 01:08:35,611
Always when they are irresponsible
I was shaking

1240
01:08:35,678 --> 01:08:41,450
I thought
that I have to continue the life

1241
01:08:41,517 --> 01:08:43,385
what we did with John

1242
01:08:43,452 --> 01:08:46,455
in the same apartment
following the same routine,

1243
01:08:46,522 --> 01:08:48,390
Sean liked me.

1244
01:08:56,298 --> 01:09:00,803
The negotiation was scheduled for June 1981,

1245
01:09:00,870 --> 01:09:03,839
six and a half months after the murder.

1246
01:09:03,906 --> 01:09:06,775
it was
that he will refer to impossibility.

1247
01:09:09,111 --> 01:09:11,647
But he planned this months ago.

1248
01:09:12,781 --> 01:09:15,784
The day he killed John Lennon

1249
01:09:15,851 --> 01:09:18,387
the defendant went up to Sean,

1250
01:09:18,454 --> 01:09:20,322
ready for him and shook hands with him.

1251
01:09:21,891 --> 01:09:24,727
what kind of person is he
who tries to contact you

1252
01:09:24,793 --> 01:09:27,696
to that man with the child
who do you want to meet later?

1253
01:09:28,164 --> 01:09:33,135
After that, he stayed there
on the spot to arrest me.

1254
01:09:34,503 --> 01:09:37,239
The fact that he chose
that blood is out of place

1255
01:09:37,306 --> 01:09:40,843
indicated that he was aware of

1256
01:09:40,910 --> 01:09:43,579
that he acted wrongly.

1257
01:09:44,313 --> 01:09:46,916
So the defense is practically broken.

1258
01:09:47,850 --> 01:09:50,719
He said God said
to plead guilty.

1259
01:09:53,489 --> 01:09:56,559
This is ABC, World News Today.

1260
01:09:56,992 --> 01:09:58,727
...which John Lennon
they defended themselves with murder,

1261
01:09:58,794 --> 01:10:01,497
sentenced to life imprisonment,
he can be released after 20 years at the earliest.

1262
01:10:02,431 --> 01:10:04,800
He was a narcissistic person,

1263
01:10:04,867 --> 01:10:07,403
who thought he deserved attention.

1264
01:10:07,469 --> 01:10:10,973
But the attention is very violent
how did he try to get it.

1265
01:10:11,674 --> 01:10:13,342
He was afraid of himself,

1266
01:10:13,409 --> 01:10:17,313
that it was all about that man,
who shot John Lennon.

1267
01:10:17,813 --> 01:10:20,749
He only met John Lennon because

1268
01:10:20,816 --> 01:10:22,885
to become famous.

1269
01:10:22,952 --> 01:10:26,255
We should never have given up
to this man

1270
01:10:26,322 --> 01:10:29,758
the glory of being talked about
throughout the country,

1271
01:10:29,825 --> 01:10:31,193
and everywhere in the world.

1272
01:10:31,260 --> 01:10:35,030
In many ways, I think we
Unfortunately, we did you a disservice.

1273
01:10:37,099 --> 01:10:39,301
They decide today
about his release,

1274
01:10:39,368 --> 01:10:40,936
who killed John Lennon 20 years ago.

1275
01:10:41,003 --> 01:10:42,504
The release panel

1276
01:10:42,571 --> 01:10:45,040
he rejected it yesterday
Request for Lennon's killer.

1277
01:10:45,107 --> 01:10:49,144
State law provides that every two years
you must apply for release.

1278
01:10:49,211 --> 01:10:51,046
I was rejected every time.

1279
01:10:51,113 --> 01:10:54,283
They dealt with John Lennon's killer,
to stay behind

1280
01:10:54,350 --> 01:10:56,418
I was rejected for the seventh time...

1281
01:10:56,485 --> 01:10:58,887
...I was rejected for the eighth time.

1282
01:10:58,954 --> 01:11:02,858
Release of the defendant
I have been rejected eleven times so far.

1283
01:11:09,098 --> 01:11:11,667
I still haven't gotten over John's death.

1284
01:11:11,734 --> 01:11:14,236
I'm still trying to get up in it.

1285
01:11:15,871 --> 01:11:19,441
Something inside...

1286
01:11:22,044 --> 01:11:23,312
I feel pressure.

1287
01:11:31,053 --> 01:11:32,755
Yoko called.

1288
01:11:32,821 --> 01:11:35,758
He asked me to help him
take a photo of the eye,

1289
01:11:35,824 --> 01:11:38,460
what John wore that night
when they were shot.

1290
01:11:40,229 --> 01:11:42,398
He caught John's eye.

1291
01:11:42,464 --> 01:11:45,200
The eyeball was torn and bloodshot.

1292
01:11:45,801 --> 01:11:49,705
and we both hurt.
It was horrible to see.

1293
01:11:51,373 --> 01:11:52,941
But if you see this eye,

1294
01:11:53,008 --> 01:11:56,178
you can relax a little

1295
01:11:57,046 --> 01:11:58,847
the horror

1296
01:11:58,914 --> 01:12:01,850
because this is not just a problem
image of bloodshot eyes.

1297
01:12:01,917 --> 01:12:07,323
It's a terrible moment
which was disclosed to the public.

1298
01:12:08,223 --> 01:12:14,296
He wanted to let the world know that
he was killed by armed violence.

1299
01:12:14,363 --> 01:12:18,000
Why not share this?
Why not share?

1300
01:12:18,067 --> 01:12:19,501
He was there too.

1301
01:12:20,169 --> 01:12:22,538
The next album Yoko released was

1302
01:12:22,604 --> 01:12:25,207
was named Season of Glass.

1303
01:12:25,607 --> 01:12:29,278
It says on the cover of this record
and John's eyes,

1304
01:12:29,345 --> 01:12:30,913
to have an understanding.

1305
01:12:32,981 --> 01:12:35,884
The picture speaks volumes,

1306
01:12:35,951 --> 01:12:38,854
and with the same effect now,
than 40 years ago.

1307
01:12:49,064 --> 01:12:51,900
after John's death,
surveyed at the beginning of the 80s,

1308
01:12:51,967 --> 01:12:54,670
to erect the statue
in Central Park.

1309
01:12:55,237 --> 01:12:56,805
John always admired the statues,

1310
01:12:56,872 --> 01:13:00,376
saying, there is a famous man
with pigeon traps on his head.

1311
01:13:00,442 --> 01:13:03,045
we didn't want
that pigeons would fly on John's head.

1312
01:13:03,579 --> 01:13:06,615
And Yoko created a park
around the world.

1313
01:13:06,682 --> 01:13:09,084
The Beatle, John Lennon
he would be 45 years old on this day.

1314
01:13:09,151 --> 01:13:12,221
Today, his wife, Yoko Ono, is in New York
city officials

1315
01:13:12,287 --> 01:13:15,224
a one-hectare plot is dedicated to him
area in Central Park.

1316
01:13:15,290 --> 01:13:18,927
It was a place where�,
I think they often went with Yok.

1317
01:13:18,994 --> 01:13:22,264
Not far from that place,
where Lennon lived and died

1318
01:13:22,331 --> 01:13:23,899
the people of New York in his memory

1319
01:13:23,966 --> 01:13:26,935
they named this small part of the park
to "Strawberry Shirts",

1320
01:13:27,836 --> 01:13:29,805
after the famous Beatles song.

1321
01:13:34,676 --> 01:13:36,979
Yoko worked together
with someone from the UN,

1322
01:13:37,045 --> 01:13:39,548
to get in touch
with the leaders of the countries,

1323
01:13:39,615 --> 01:13:41,550
asked you to donate something

1324
01:13:41,617 --> 01:13:44,920
that the whole world
to be together at Epermezok.

1325
01:13:47,890 --> 01:13:49,525
This is a memorial.

1326
01:13:49,591 --> 01:13:53,896
Something that needs to be nurtured and taken care of.

1327
01:13:54,363 --> 01:13:55,831
123 nations

1328
01:13:55,898 --> 01:13:58,700
donated trees and plants
In memory of Lennon.

1329
01:13:59,668 --> 01:14:02,037
You know, there's a big memorial there

1330
01:14:02,104 --> 01:14:03,505
and a beautiful mosaic,

1331
01:14:03,572 --> 01:14:05,941
which was a gift to the city of Naples.

1332
01:14:06,008 --> 01:14:08,510
It says: "Imagine".

1333
01:14:08,577 --> 01:14:11,313
This is a place
which reminds us

1334
01:14:11,380 --> 01:14:13,282
who he was, what he accomplished,

1335
01:14:13,348 --> 01:14:16,351
and the manifestation of
what he wanted to express with his art.

1336
01:14:16,418 --> 01:14:18,520
Lennon, imagine, peace and love.

1337
01:14:19,855 --> 01:14:21,924
If you live on an airplane above the park,
and you see

1338
01:14:21,990 --> 01:14:25,861
the place because of the shape of the roads surrounding it

1339
01:14:25,928 --> 01:14:27,763
It looks like a teardrop.

1340
01:14:28,397 --> 01:14:33,735
This garden is all of us
it is the result of close life.

1341
01:14:34,269 --> 01:14:39,741
This is the way to
how to make a sad song better.

1342
01:14:41,143 --> 01:14:43,078
I went there three years ago.

1343
01:14:43,145 --> 01:14:45,547
There were a lot of people.

1344
01:14:46,682 --> 01:14:48,884
People come there to remember.

1345
01:14:49,685 --> 01:14:51,353
This is what John Lennon wanted, peace.

1346
01:14:52,521 --> 01:14:54,857
And, you know, we are serious about peace.

1347
01:14:54,923 --> 01:14:57,292
If they shoot us, even if we can say,

1348
01:14:57,359 --> 01:14:59,461
what you need about leather and everything else.

1349
01:14:59,862 --> 01:15:01,330
GY PEACE

1350
01:15:01,396 --> 01:15:04,700
It appears in the world every few days
one such artist.

1351
01:15:05,267 --> 01:15:08,537
And luckily for us, it was here
John Lennon, who we shared

1352
01:15:08,604 --> 01:15:12,741
here is your art collection
his words and thoughts.

1353
01:15:13,675 --> 01:15:15,844
He worked on
for his songs to be included

1354
01:15:15,911 --> 01:15:17,579
America's favorite song treasure.

1355
01:15:18,747 --> 01:15:20,516
We were robbed of every moment

1356
01:15:20,582 --> 01:15:22,518
as long as he lived.

1357
01:15:22,584 --> 01:15:24,119
It's impossible to count.

1358
01:15:25,387 --> 01:15:27,723
If anyone ever wanted to do something

1359
01:15:27,789 --> 01:15:29,925
In memory of John Lennon,

1360
01:15:29,992 --> 01:15:32,361
I'd say go for it
the words of the c�mu song "Imagine".

1361
01:15:35,264 --> 01:15:38,166
Imagine that all people live in peace.

1362
01:15:42,905 --> 01:15:44,172
Everyone thinks so

1363
01:15:44,239 --> 01:15:47,342
but John gave it to the people
the words that could be used to express this.

1364
01:15:49,678 --> 01:15:52,481
It became an anthem for the world,

1365
01:15:52,548 --> 01:15:55,984
which breaks down the religious
and racial barriers,

1366
01:15:56,051 --> 01:15:59,021
and it looks like
Even with music for a short time.

1367
01:16:00,422 --> 01:16:05,460
It's hard to listen to his songs,
not to be sad or angry,

1368
01:16:05,994 --> 01:16:07,763
that you don't want more from John.

1369
01:16:09,698 --> 01:16:12,167
Let's dance proudly on the Hall of Fame

1370
01:16:12,234 --> 01:16:13,869
Mr. John Lennon!

1371
01:16:15,537 --> 01:16:19,675
I think it's his music and his spirit
with great significance

1372
01:16:19,741 --> 01:16:22,144
for many people
and this is still the case today.

1373
01:16:23,745 --> 01:16:26,782
I think it's important to
to keep my father's music

1374
01:16:26,848 --> 01:16:29,518
and music in people's minds,

1375
01:16:29,585 --> 01:16:32,988
because it's such music
which everyone can relate to.

1376
01:16:33,855 --> 01:16:39,461
We came here to pay our respects, Father
before his memory and pray for the skin.

1377
01:16:43,732 --> 01:16:46,435
and the holy divorce
still reached John Lennon,

1378
01:16:46,501 --> 01:16:48,804
although he would have laughed at this situation.

1379
01:16:49,538 --> 01:16:51,273
I was loved because

1380
01:16:51,340 --> 01:16:53,976
because it was so far away,
to be holy.

1381
01:17:00,482 --> 01:17:03,719
Here we are, and 40 years later

1382
01:17:04,486 --> 01:17:07,255
about this man
And we're talking about music.

1383
01:17:07,990 --> 01:17:12,294
Music lasts because it is authentic.

1384
01:17:13,428 --> 01:17:17,265
Music reaches its goal and survives.

1385
01:17:19,468 --> 01:17:21,136
IMAGINE IT

1386
01:17:21,203 --> 01:17:23,205
