One to One: John & Yoko trailer

March 12, 2025

Concert movie featuring John Lennon and Yoko Ono opens in IMAX theaters April 11, and theaters everywhere April 18. Full movie details.

On August 30, 1972, in New York City, John Lennon played his only full-length show after leaving The Beatles, the One to One benefit concert at Madison Square Garden, a rollicking, dazzling performance from him and Yoko Ono. By 1971 the couple was newly arrived in the United States—living in a tiny apartment in Greenwich Village and watching a huge amount of American television. The film uses a riotous mélange of American TV to conjure the era through what the two would have been seeing on the screen: the Vietnam War, The Price is Right, Nixon, Coca-Cola ads, Cronkite, The Waltons. As they experience a year of love and transformation in the US, John and Yoko begin to change their approach to protest—ultimately leading to the One to One concert, which was inspired by a Geraldo Rivera exposé they watched on TV.
