I Met the Walrus: An Animated Short Film with John Lennon

in Music | November 19th, 2009 Leave a Comment

It happened 40 years ago. A 14-year-old Beatles fan named Jerry Levitan managed to sneak into John Lennon’s Toronto hotel room and asked for an interview. And he got one. Now, there’s a short animated film that brings that encounter back to life. I Met the Walrus was nominated for the 2008 Academy Award for Animated Short. You’ll know why when you watch it. Another excellent find by Vickie. Find this video added to our YouTube Favorites.
