Yoko Ono is getting set to battle against a Lawrence, Massachusetts-based World Wide Video. The video dealers are claiming ownership of nine hours of footage that show Lennon smoking pot, writing songs and discussing putting the hallucinogenic drug LSD in Nixon's tea. Their plan is to release it as a two-hour film titled "3 days in the life."
So who really owns it?
World Wide paid more than $1 million for the footage after legal costs and other expenses. Ono is asserting copyright ownership and I hope she gets it. While I would love to see John Lennon in his own environment, there is also a lot to be said about respecting the privacy of legends.
