Two of Us - coming to HOME this September
Preview by Steve Cooke
What was said, the final time John Lennon and Paul McCartney met?
Six years after the bitter break up of The Beatles, Two of Us asks what happened when Paul pays John a visit in New York City - unannounced.
With a cast including Barry Sloane (The Sandman, Passenger) and Jay Johnson (Nowhere Boy, Boiling Point) Two of Us is the story of two musical legends meeting for the final time.
In 1976, tired of the spotlight, John Lennon chose to be a stay-at-home dad to his baby son, Sean.
Paul McCartney was number one all over the world with his new band, Wings, and about to embark on a global tour.
Once inseparable, both men were now worlds apart. Six years after the bitter break up of The Beatles, Paul paid a visit to John’s apartment in New York City – Unannounced - It would be the final time they EVER met.
Two of Us ruminates on what may have happened. Truths that may have been spoken and traumas that may have been shared. Their apologies and eulogies, what was said and what was left unsaid. It is the story of two working class boys who loved each other.
