Some of those images became a 1981 compilation called THE JOHN LENNON COLLECTION

Not wearing his specs and having lost weight and looking thinner in the face, I've never felt those last photos look like John. Of course it is him but not the JL that I remember from the 1960's and early 1970's.
John would be 78 now and I've occasionally found myself wondering what he would look like today had he still been alive?

Yes, me too. His totally unexpected"apearance" in "Yesterday" brought gasps from the audience....the unexpected, yes, but more so....the idea. The actor looked so much like John....maybe a little shorter and lacking John's sense of humor....that I was struck at the idea that for a moment....if only in a film....we could imagine that John hadn't been murdered. It brought tears to my eyes. How might it all have been? That movie is much better, to me, than some critics seem to think....even some fans of the Beatles. I cannot imagine how my life would be/have been had there been no Beatles. We were forced to go there and it was like being in an empty space.

I'll definately be buying the film on blu ray when its released (which these days won't be long).

Thanks for spoiling it for me! I haven’t seen it yet!
