A must-see for any John Lennon disciple or music aficionado, Gimme Some Truth chronicles the evolution of Lennon’s 1971 landmark album—Imagine. This intimate, homemade “rockumentary” presents the quotidian elements of Lennon’s life: the frustrations of recording, the passion of his marriage, the challenges of being a pop culture deity. Spliced with campy, rollicking music videos (“Crippled Inside,” “Oh, Yoko”), the film inspires nostalgia for an era predating the advent of slick and stylized video production techniques while relishing the creative innovation, insouciance, and flamboyance manifested in the Lennon-Ono duo. Turning the camera on themselves, John and Yoko capture ephemeral images of gifted brilliance, tender love, and larger-than-life vivacity, all of which combined transform a legend into a man and transform the daily efforts of a work-in-progress into a legendary album.
