“The Lost Weekend: A Love Story” explores the 18-month relationship (1973-1975) that John Lennon spent with May Pang, his Chinese American assistant turned lover (on Yoko Ono’s insistence). With May’s help, Lennon reunited with his son Julian and had his most artistically and commercially productive period post-Beatles – with the albums “Mind Games”, “Walls and Bridges” which included his only #1 Hit Single “Whatever Gets You Through the Night”, “Rock and Roll” and collaborated with Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger, and Ringo to name a few. Pang chronicles it all revisiting her younger self, a naïve 22-year old experiencing her first unforgettable love.
“For Beatles fans this stuff will serve an indelible window into this period in John Lennon’s life”
-The Film Experience
“This cinematic version of May Pang’s story is a visual treat and an emotional journey that offers intriguing photos and audio recordings, including rare chronicles of John Lennon’s reunions with his former Beatles bandmate Paul McCartney.”
