This is really not a thread about John Lennon. Has anyone seen this documentary? It was an incredible expose of the 60's, 70's, 80's and gave unbelievalbe background into the Nixon years. I personally think it is something all high school students who are studying United States history and government should see. |

I agree with you that it was a very well presented documentary which portrayed the troubles of those times excellently. My respect for John's political views went up considerably when watching this film and I'm sure that his views would be quite refreshing in a time when teachers and politicians are constantly telling young people that things are 'too complicated' and that there are no simple solutions. |
