The Friday April 1st 2005 Cindy Adams February 1970, only
weeks before The Beatles broke up, John Lennon and new buddy, Tony
Cox, Yoko's former husband, shot a cine'ma ve'rite', black-and-white,
no-hold-barred documentary about Lennon. Never shown, these 10 hours of
unseen, raw footage, now entitled "3 Days in the Life" are
getting cleaned, restored, reprocessed, cut to 90 minutes and marketed
by World Wide Video. This original
granddaddy of all reality programs will debut for music students at NYU;
be introduced by a professional panel; and arrive complete with photos
of Lennon composing, joking, reading the paper, strumming his guitar and
telling Yoko I'm "finished with the band." The film culminates
with him rehearsing his first post-Beatles solo, "Instant
Karma."
