Fascinating doco - thanks!

This doc seems fairly reasonable for the most part but i almost fell out of my chair laughing when it came to this conclusion at the end of the film: 51:36 "[...] A single story can lead to murder." Okay then.....

The Beatles arrived in America on Feb. 7, 1964, not August. You'd think a effing Brit would know that. All ya gotta do is look at the airport footage with the coats and scarves to know it isn't summer in New York.

It's ironic that Lennon always said that he felt safe in New York. It's also ironic that Lennon was more or less out of the public eye. (Yoko Ono said that Lennon was wanting to revive his music career with a new singing tour)

i don't think new york had much to do with it. Chapman traveled from Hawaii to do this. if Lennon was living in Peoria, it would have happened there.

That forensic psych at the end was laughable when he said that Chapman "chose" to emulate the hero in the book. The man was clearly mentally ill. He was progressively deteriorating over the years. Idiots like that psych show how poorly mentally ill people are treated by the legal system. There are literally more mentally ill people in America's prisons than there are in American mental hospitals. Instead of honestly trying to understand people like Chapman to prevent future tragedies, the system simply dismisses them by saying that they consciously "chose" to act out insanely. ... jkulik919@gmail.com

It's asking, who was Mark Chapman?

I first became a Beatles fan when I was a little boy. Yellow Submarine was my favourite Beatles film. I was ten when my mom came into my bedroom one morning and said that John Lennon had been killed. I didn't recognize the name at first, being that as a child I didn't know the names of the singers-though I was a fan of them-but of course I soon learned all the details. Chapman can rot in jail!Jail is too good for him! These women who knew him and talk about wonderful he once was towards them...... they'd been manipulated by a selfish monster. His wife is just as guilty. She knew that he was planning to kill Lennon and said nothing to law enforcement. She should have been put in jail along with him! It's a shame Chapman never succeeded in commiting suicide.

When John Lennon was shot dead there was a pop show in the U.K top of the pops and at the end they played a tribute to Lennon Imagine, it was in some New York venue the audience were sitting around tables it wasn't like a stadium ,tho in the front row there was a guy who looked very much like Mark Chapman ,when Top of the Pops ended the BBC were getting call after call about it .I was 15 when he died my dad came home from night work and called up to my mam saying John Lennon was shot dead . hard to believe it's almost 40 years ago. He was also on Richard Nixon's book of enemies ,I'm not saying Nixon had him killed because there were many more like Barbra Streisand and others in show business in his book.

Why does Chapman’s voice sounds too resemble to Winding Refn’s one. quiet and steady as well

Nothing against fans (l'm one myself) but they shouldn't be allowed to congregate around celebrity residences. Too many kooks in the world. Unfortunately, Lennon found out the hard way.

Not true. Geffen Records had just started up and was doing very well, having success already with Donna Summer, John and Yoko, and the signing of Elton John.

John’s interview with Melody Maker was published in the UK five or six months before it was released in the US, leading to the ridiculous moral panic of fundamentalist wack jobs.

This video is misleading and skips over a lot of very important facts.. in the timeline of his life history skips back and forth and only gives Snippets...

This is the typical mainstream FF about how John Lennon died. In truth he was killed by the cia and another organization I’ll leave out for now. As Chapman pulled and began to fire blanks with his pea shooter, John ran up the sidewalk to the Dakota hotel. As he ran he went up to and passed by the newly hired security guard, named Caesar. As John passed by, Caesar turned, raised his arm under his coat and let off a quick, quiet, silenced, 3 round burst from his tiny mac10-like submachine gun. He was after all a professional hitman, a cia assassin who had previously been involved in shooting JFK! If you look up ‘ole damnegard’, “ole damnegard John Lennon”, “Dave McGowan” or “Dave McGowan strange days in laurel canyon”, and do just a little research, you’ll soon find out a lot about it. They’ll cover some amazing topics, things like: Manson, the Beatles, JFK, RFK, MLK, Maury Terrey the ultimate evil, how they fake serial killers in the U.S., and more. In short, these assassinations and events were staged demoralizing, morale-crushing, psychological operations. Code named Operation Gladio B in Europe, they’re basically psyop events which are played out on the public at large. They even killed Bob Marley: Marley died from a fast acting cancer he got from putting on an old pair of ‘mark-five’ army boots, given to him by the son of the director of the CIA. He gave Bob some *new MK-5* army boots for his birthday. As soon as Bob put on the boots, his big toe was pierced by something. Upon later inspection the boot was found to have an embedded wire which poked inside the boot, in the big toe area. Not long before this event, Bob Marley had been shot, point-blank in anoter obvious assassination attempt, but he survived, and he even performed onstage not long after. Instead, this teensy little puncture from a wire developed into fast-spreading cancer which killed him. To me it’s obvious why they did it. His music is so positive, so uplifting, it makes people happy, it brings people of all types together, it’s endlessly trendy and popular, it’s infectious, incredibly ‘cool’ and Bob spoke a lot about God. He spoke of the Most High, calling him Yah, says we don’t need the preacher men just the Bible itself, he talks about Zion, how Adonai will see us through, how people can directly ask God to help them, to fight for our rights, how preachers only tell half the story, how the greatest gift is God and His return, that we should love our neighbor and fight the oppressor ... and so on and so on. He was *too good, so he was whacked.* Notice how rarely you’ll hear him or his deeper songs on the radio. If you’re interested about the cia connections and the crazy stories about JFK, RFK, MLK, etc, here is a link to get started kzread.info/dash/bejne/gWiE1blyc7vWhM4.html God bless you.

John 8 v 44

"Like all of us do when the relationship comes to an end"- she says at 13:35. then she goes:" and we learn from that and we go on, that didn't happen with Mark" Well, first of all she should speak for herself only when she mentions "WE" in "we go on" , cause not everybody equally relives as easily a break up as herself just to "go on" and jump soon into the laps of a next guy. Obviously apart from Chapmen she had never really loved the guy and easily dumped him and easily went on. She is as phony as a lying bi..ch can be hiding behind that convenient "WE" I don't wanna blame her in choosing to end their relationship as everybody should have the right to choose whatever they want to do with themselves but i reckon had she stayed with Chapman back then and tried to work things out, the world might have gotten much more greater songs then just a single-"imagine"
