“John Lennon: The Last Interview” captures an extraordinary and intimate moment in music history – the final in-depth conversation John Lennon ever gave. On December 8, 1980, Lennon and Yoko Ono sat down with a small radio crew in their New York apartment to promote the release of their album Double Fantasy. What followed was an unfiltered, wide-ranging discussion about music, politics, fatherhood, and life. Just hours later, Lennon was killed. Directed by Steven Soderbergh, the documentary presents the complete interview for the first time, framed by reflections from those who were present, revealing a man at the height of his creative and personal powers, openly looking toward the future he would never see.
