Kaleidoscope Entertainment is excited to announce that the new John Lennon documentary, Borrowed Time: Lennon’s Last Decade, will be coming to UK cinemas from 2nd May, with special Q&A events to be announced soon.

From Alan G. Parker, director of Hello QuoLove Kills: The Story of Sid and the Pistols and It Was Fifty Years Ago Today… Sgt Pepper and Beyond, Borrowed Time: Lennon’s Last Decade explores the final decade of Lennon’s life in extraordinary detail.

Follow the legend as he evolves beyond The Beatles, creating revolutionary music and standing at the forefront of anti-war protests that would make him one of the most influential pop culture icons of all time.

Hear musicians, journalists, and close friends of the man himself set the record straight on the truth behind many famous Lennon moments, brought to life by rare archive footage, including never-before-seen interviews. For the first time ever, the full story of how John and Yoko met is revealed and watch as the curtain is lifted on the 1981 comeback tour that never came to be. This monumental film is a must-see for Lennon, Beatles and music fans alike.

In addition to the film hitting cinemas on 2nd May, fans can also enjoy the 3.5-hour Director’s Cut, streaming the same day for one month exclusively on the Icon Film Channel (available for subscribers on Amazon Prime Video Channels or via the standalone app).

Speaking on the upcoming release, Director Alan G. Parker said: “I am so excited to share Borrowed Time: Lennon’s Last Decade with UK audiences. I’ve made a number of films, but this is the first one that feels personal. I never met John Lennon, but through his music, he became the older brother that this bullied kid needed”.

The film opens in UK cinemas from 2nd May, with an exclusive Director’s Cut available on the Icon Film Channel on the same day.
