Director Kevin McDonald (“The Last King of Scotland”) is behind a brand new documentary, “One To One: John & Yoko,” that explores the lives of iconic musicians John Lennon and Yoko Ono while they were living in Greenwich Village in the early 1970s.
A new trailer has been released by Magnolia Pictures alongside an announcement that the pic will be heading to IMAX on April 11 and then subsequent theaters on April 18.
The doc also focuses on their One To One benefit concert that took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City during the summer of 1972 after Lennon had left the beloved Liverpool rock band, The Beatles.
John and Yoko’s son Sean Ono Lennon (who also produces music in the film), Brad Pitt (via Plan B), Marc Robinson, David Joseph, Steve Condie, Dede Gardner, and Jeremy Kleiner make up the doc’s producing team.
Magnolia has provided us with the following synopsis for “One To One: John & Yoko”:
