Google is celebrating John Lennon’s 70th birthday with a Google Doodle.
This anniversary is exactly two months before the 30th anniversary of the day when Mark David Chapman shot five bullets from a .38 revolver and ended John Lennon’s life.
Yoko Ono, the late musician’s wife remastered eight of Lennon’s solo albums in order to celebrate this special event with a big concert dedicated to John’s memory. If the musician were to be alive today, how would he look like? What would his voice sound like?
John Lennon’s 70th birthday will be marked with a movie about the shot Beatles childhood. The movie is called “Nowhere Man” and reveals a Lennon that loved to tweak authority. He even made fun of one of the teacher who was more religious. John bought strips of white cardboard for all the boys and when the teacher entered the classroom, he found himself staying in front of a class full of priests.
The movie is directed by Sam Taylor-Wood and is focusing on Lennon’s teen life in Liverpool in 1955.
