John and Yoko Film 'One to One' Picked Up for Distribution - Imax Release and Streaming Announced

Magnolia Pictures has picked up U.S. distribution rights for the new documentary "One to One: John & Yoko" and plans an April 11 release for the film exclusively on Imax screens. The film also is set to start streaming on Max later this year. Via Deadline : The docu is a revelatory look at the 18 months John Lennon and Yoko Ono spent living in Greenwich Village in the early 1970s with never-before-seen material and newly restored footage of Lennon’s only full-length, post-Beatles concert.

He liked the old country singers like George Jones and people like that, and he was a big fan of that. So I think, you know, maybe, it suits his personality. He’s a very sincere, straightforward guy, and I think that’s the sort of theme behind a lot of country music. Ringo was the perfect drummer for The Beatles. But why?
