I Grew up with the Beatles, I loved their music, even when it went wierd, I still tried to understand it. I listen to music, the lyrics and all, not just to the tunes. Words are Important to me, especially in song, so I have given great thought to this matter, many days and months, about this movie, it is made, is being shown all over the USA now. But when it comes to a theatre near me, I will not be watching it. I remember the breakup of the Beatles band, and the reasons for it, John wanted to go in a direction musically that paul and george did not want to go, the contention got so sharp between them that the band disolved because of it. we all were devestated by it. Music, especially the Beatles Music, had become a sort of philosophy to us, the peace songs, and love songs, and songs about a better dream for our Earth, we thought nothing could stop us from making the world that way. We did not know about the power of the dark side, the power of greed, the power of love for authority, which many men mistake for true power; and cannot have same, because all real authority comes from and ultimately belongs to GOD Himself, and he only lets us have our positions of authority to see how we will do good with them. He gives, and takes away, for it is HIS to do so. those who worship their supposed power of authority, usurp if they could His right thereof. The power of lust for ownership of possessions, which takes money, lots of it, so we get caught up in greed, which has it’s own motivations, most of which have contrary intentions to love and peace. Intentions which have nothing to do with doing good deeds for our fellow man/woman. These things got in our way, and we did not succede in the dream that was in the song. So the best thoughts of a generation of children, fell shattered and forsaken on the concreate of our high towers, for the name of commerce, we abandoned our goals, and woke up and realized that only a handfull of us really believed the message, the others were too busy making money off of it. The Beatles got rich too, and left off the path they tried to set us on with their words. When you are that wealthy, you don’t have the worry of whether the world is truly suffering or not. It becomes a thing in the background, like news heard in a far-off country, not close and personal. Johns death was meaningless, just a murder on the street, by a deranged person that no one stopped in time; and his killer robbed civilization of a truly great if somewhat flawed dreamer, who wasn’t done dreaming the world a better place, inspite of the capitolism he got drawn into with his personal fortune. Lindsay I Love You, and I support You, but this movie, like ” Bobby ” ( which I have seen ) I will not buy or add to my collection. Make no mistake on this All MADISON AVE. ever wanted was to make money on the whole phenomena, they never believed in it for a moment, their GOD is money, and their Credo is Profit, period. They marketed to US a whole generation, something they themselves did not believe in, because they saw a potential for enormous profits, and when WE started to believe in it, they Madison Ave tried to make the whole thing a FAD, so it would go away, because it threatend their livlihood, if the general public started to actually do what the songs suggested and enjoined us to do. They Succeded in making it a FAD, and we had the plastic hippies as a result, and the whole thing collapsed, the whole movement was undercut, and the Beatles, were left disillusioned as a result, this led to the contention about the direction in which their music was going to go or continue to go. So now you have the story, from one who lived through that time and saw it happen, and understood all that was going on. Madison Ave. didn’t fool me, I just couldn’t stop them. For all my power, I couldn’t stop that. Greed and Profit, triumphed that year.
GOD Bless You Always, Lindsay D Lohan, I Love You Always, me, Larry T Robinson O.R. Tn.

i’ve seen previews and bits and parts of this movie. and i think when i see it, it will be very hard. but this movie has a point and as much as we all hate chapman and we dont want to give him any more attention and just forget about lindsey this movie is about what was going threw chapman’s mind at the time which is a different perspective because anybody can make a movie about john lennon we have many of those but this is different and very deep. Very sad but not a bad movie at all.
