One To One: John & Yoko

Directed by Kevin Macdonald
United Kingdom
2024
100 mins
In this astonishing doc by Oscar-winner Kevin Macdonald, the rock royalty duo let loose onstage at their historic “One to One” concert and let their hair down at home in NYC.

In the early 1970s, John Lennon and Yoko Ono spent 18 months in a small Greenwich Village apartment, absorbing the New York scene and, by their own admission, watching a lot of TV. Both things would shape the music they were making and their activism too – culminating in what would be Lennon’s only full-length post-Beatles performance, alongside Yoko: the “One to One” benefit concert at Madison Square Garden. Interweaving the incredible live footage – vividly restored and remastered – with a trove of candid photos and never-before-seen home movie clips, Oscar-winner Kevin Macdonald (Whitney, SFF 2018) and co-director Sam Rice-Edwards immerse viewers in this fraught but fecund time in American history.
