I Met the Walrus
Director: Josh Raskin
Showing: May 30, 2pm, MTC

Insightful and incredibly clever animation illustrates an impromptu interview by a Canadian teen with musician and peace activist John Lennon. Fourteen-year-old Jerry Levitan managed to sneak into the hotel room where John and Yoko were having one of their notorious “bed-ins” for peace and recorded a piece of history.
