Lost Weekend: A Love Story
A fascinating, revealing, and sometimes moving portrait of John Lennon unmoored, trying to find himself in a world that had caught up to him.
The Lost Weekend: A Love Story
THE LOST WEEKEND: A LOVE STORY explores the 18-month relationship (1973-1975) that John Lennon spent with May Pang, his Chinese American assistant-turned-lover (on Yoko Ono’s insistence). With May's help, Lennon reunited with his son Julian and had his most artistically and commercially productive period post-Beatles with the albums Mind Games, Walls and Bridges -- which included his only number one hit single "Whatever Gets You Through the Night" -- and Rock and Roll and collaborated with Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger, and Ringo Starr, to name a few. Pang chronicles it all, revisiting her younger self, a naïve 22-year-old experiencing her first unforgettable love.
