Yoko Ono Puts Lennon Documentary on Hold

The documentary, Three Days in the Life, consisting of two hours of footage, shot just months before the Beatles called it quits, has been put on hold for public viewing by the late John Lennon's wife, Yoko Ono.

Three Days in the Life was supposed to have its world premiere at Berwick Academy, a private school in Maine. The plan was to show it for free at several schools and colleges. But the academy chose not to show it, due to legal disputes of ownership.

"Mrs. Lennon owns all rights, title and copyrights in and to all film, outtakes and videotapes embodying the images of the late John Lennon and herself as filmed by Anthony Cox in 1970," attorney Dorothy Weber wrote in a letter to Berwick's head of school. Cox was Ono's first husband.

The ten hours of footage shot, included Lennon being interviewed by Ono's daughter, Kyoko Chan Cox, in the back of a limo, Lennon strumming on a guitar with "Mind Games," and him walking around the garden of his U.K. estate.
