Background
In 1969, 14-year-old Beatle fan named Jerry Levitan snuck into a Toronto hotel room that Lennon and Yoko Ono were staying in. Lennon allowed the boy to stay and agreed to do an interview. Levitan recorded his conversation with Lennon on a reel-to-reel tape recorder. Levitan preserved the tape, and 38 years later, director Josh Raskin created an animated film using the artwork of James Braithwaite and Alex Kurina to illustrate the audio.BravoCanada: I Met the Walrus-
