Decent For What It Is

Freedom (1970)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

This short film from Yoko Ono and John Lennon certainly won't win any awards. Heck, I'm not sure even fans of theirs will really enjoy it. The basic "plot" has a woman (Ono) standing in front of the camera and struggling to take her bra off.

Yes, that's the entire film. This clocks in at just under a couple minutes so obviously one shouldn't be expecting any sort of plot or anything like that. The title alone and the suggestive nature of the film tells you everything you need to know. Is this a good movie? Not really but at the same time it's mildly interesting as an experimental movie. I'm sure Ono and Lennon were wanting to push a message and for the most part that's what they do.

Freedom filmed by Yoko Ono

On April 29th 1967 at Alexandria Palace ( Ally Pally) in London, was a huge 'happening'. The event was all night long for hipsters and tripsters (see the 14 Hour Technicolour Dream) and was headlined by many future rock stars. Pink Floyd was the headliner. On this night Yoko Ono attended and had a young lady be the model ( as Yoko backed out) and Yoko filmed the bra and panties being cut off. Now all this was done with ending the Viet Nam war. There was one man in the audience that was smitten, and just had to meet Yoko and that was John Lennon.
