Imagine a movie all about John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
The pair met in 1966 at a London art gallery, where Yoko was showing abstract art.
The Beatle asked his future bride about her piece, “Painting to Hammer a Nail In”, and if he could do just that by hammering a nail into the painting. She asked him to pay five shillings per nail, but the two then agreed that John would pay imaginary money to hammer an imaginary nail.
Their engagement blossomed into a marriage which ultimately led to John leaving the fabulous four.
John and Yoko remained united (except for a period of 2 years in the mid-70s) until the singer’s assassination in 1980.
38 years after his death, Yoko is collaborating with Michael de Luca Productions to immortalize her and John’s love story on screen.
Big Little Lies director, Jean-Marc Vallee, will helm the film which is being produced by Universal Pictures, as well as rewrite the screenplay with Anthony McCarten.
All we are saying is give it a chance.
