The U.S. Vs. John Lennon

David Leaf, Director
2006 | 99 min | Feature
Among the many legacies of the Nixon era was an effort by the Immigration and Naturalization Service to deport John Lennon as an "undesirable alien." The reason: many Nixon supporters, including Senator Strom Thurmond and J. Edgar Hoover, worried that Lennon - anti-war protester and New York resident since 1971 - might galvanize young Americans to vote Democratic in the 1972 election. Documentarians David Leaf and John Scheinfeld recount the fascinating story utilizing a rich selection of archive film clips and illuminating interviews.
