still be worthwhile, but that's the case withJohn and Yoko's Year of Peace. The year in question is 1969, when the newly married couple staged the notorious "bed-in" at a Toronto hotel to promote their somewhat naive but sincere campaign for world peace; they then moved on to Montreal, where "Give Peace a Chance" was recorded in another hotel room, before returning to Toronto, where Lennon (accompanied by Eric Clapton and others) became the first Beatle to perform in concert without his mates. There's no film of that event here, but there is a great deal of other Lennon footage, revealing him to be utterly honest, unpretentious, gentle and approachable. Ono and others who were there recall the events in interesting interviews conducted around the time of this 2000 documentary, but it's the scenes from 69 that make this an invaluable document.--Sam Graham

DVD Description
A look back at the summer of 1969 when John Lennon and Yoko Ono were married. Instead of going on a secluded honeymoon which would have been swamped by reporters anyway, they decided to hold a public honeymoon in their hotel bed and promote the word "peace" so that it would wind up on Page One of every newspaper that covered the event. Included in this video is footage of John and Yoko meeting cartoonist Al Capp, Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, and media expert Marshall McLuhan.
