John & Yoko Bed-In 2006

Directed by Jonas Mekas

In May 1969 John Lennon and Yoko Ono held their famous Bed-In For Peace event. It was attended by many of their close friends, including Timothy Leary. This is a record of the event. From the cycle of FIRST FORTY I made in late 2006 as an introduction to my work for my new, Internet audience. All of them are based on my earlier films but slightly, sometimes more than slightly, changed. I consider them works complete in themselves, seperate from the main body of my film work.
