Watch the first trailer for new John Lennon & Yoko Ono documentary ‘Daytime Revolution’

We've just got our first look at the upcoming documentary Daytime Revolution, which looks at the week in February 1972 when John Lennon and Yoko Ono produced and co-hosted the popular daytime talk show The Mike Douglas Show.

The trailer shows footage of the couple’s takeover of the show, with clips of their guests including Chuck Berry, George Carlin and activist Ralph Nader, the latter of whom is interviewed for the film. There’s also a clip of Lennon performing his classic tune Imagine.

According to the description, the doc “takes us back in time, as we observe John and Yoko interacting with a transfixed studio audience in revealing Q and A sessions where John Lennon was astonishingly candid about his life after the Beatles.”

We don't yet know when we'll be able to watch Daytime Revolution in New Zealand, but it is set to premiere at the Hamptons Film Festival from October 4-14 before opening in U.S. cinemas on October 9th, which would have been John's 84th birthday.

Watch the trailer above.
