In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatles fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed only with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon’s hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview about peace, love, and not being allowed into the United States.
Nearly 40 years later, that audio was adapted into the animated short film, I Met the Walrus by Josh Raskin.

Man. That was awesome. I couldn’t help get a little teary-eyed listening to Lennon’s voice. I wasn’t born in the sixties or anything but I can see a lot of what he’s saying in today’s world. Great find!
