In this clip, filmmaker Kevin Macdonald breaks down John Lennon’s political transformation during the early 1970s, a tumultuous period after The Beatles’ breakup when John and Yoko were living in the West Village. Macdonald explains how Lennon briefly aligned with radical activist Jerry Rubin, flirted with revolutionary ideas, and ultimately realized he was being used—leading him to recommit to peace.
This moment is part of Macdonald’s powerful new film One to One, now available to watch on HBO, offering an intimate portrait of John and Yoko’s life, activism, and vulnerability during their New York years.
