' John Lennon: The Last Interview' is the fab new 100 minute film directed by L.A. movie maker Steven Soderbergh that features me and the 2 guys on my RKO Radio team - co-interviewer/ music director Dave Sholin and engineer/producer Ron Hummel, and we were all thrilled to experience the final in-depth interview John Lennon ever gave! The movie is being excitingly showcased at the most admired, popular, famous film fest in the entire world – France’s Cannes Film Festival - from May 12th to the 23rd, 2026! The film has already been seen and super complimented by John and Yoko’s son Sean Lennon – so happy to hear!  I can't wait for it to start playing in movie theaters around the country and all over the world so everyone will also be able to find out plenty of the content of my book that I wrote wrapped around December 8th. 1980 - the day my team and I spent at the Dakota with John and Yoko!  It’s my memoir -  Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading Up to John Lennon's Last Interview!

According to Steven Soderbergh, key themes in our upcoming film ' John Lennon: The Last Interview ' include John's reflections and actual quotes from our final time spent with him and Yoko Ono talking about everything from their family life and reunion to their awesome meaningful and creative process behind their latest  music, and John’s desire to move beyond his past with The Beatles!  Enjoy! 

Thanks to documentary producer Nancy Saslow, it was not long ago that director Steven Soderbergh was presented with the singular opportunity to exclusively access our RKO Radio final interview with John Lennon, recorded mere hours before John’s death, as the much anticipated foundation for a major documentary!

Award winning British director Alan G. Parker's feature film documentary BORROWED TIME - John Lennon’s Last Decade - will finally be released this summer or possibly this May/June! Dave Sholin and I were among Alan's interviewees 3 years ago since thanks to RKO Radio we both conducted what tragically turned out to be John Lennon's final interview way back on December 8, 1980 ! Director Alan G. Parker says "What a trip! A long journey from idea to movie!" He says there's a commercial version (2 hours 8 minutes) and director's cut (3 hours 28 minutes), and the BORROWED TIME trailer should be out shortly!
