"The Lost Weekend: A Love Story" explores the 18 months (1973-1975) that John Lennon spent in a relationship with May Pang, his 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, producing the albums "Mind Games," "Walls and Bridges," (which included his #1 hit single "Whatever Gets You Through the Night") and "Rock and Roll" and collaborating with Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger and Ringo, among others. Pang chronicles it all, revisiting her younger self: a naïve 22-year-old experiencing her first, unforgettable love. This film is not rated.
