John Lennon was an icon of the 1960s and 1970s, We fell in love with him as the "funny Beatle" with a laconic wit. His songs "Imagine" and "Give Peace a Chance" are timeless anthems. John's anti-war protests are legendary. And his music will live on forever in our hearts and minds. But John Lennon was a very complex human being haunted by childhood demons and who also had a very dark and violent side that we never really heard about. John was a self-admitted woman-abuser. He once nearly beat a man to death over being insulted. He abused LSD and heroin and went on a self-destructive 18-month "Lost Weekend." Revolver: John Lennon (1940 - 1980) uses research and archived interviews to tell the little known story of the dark side of a man who inspired millions with the ideas of peace, love and light.
