Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish.

Your opinion. You are entitled. I don't agree.
I haven't watched that show, but I have read Noguchi's book...I think he leaves some things out...

Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

Shaking with rage, he had attacked the four-poster bed and was doing his best to break loose one of its posts. "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" he screamed. "Roman Polansk is to blame for everything." We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

You are the one who brought up Noguchi's autopsy...

Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

Shaking with rage, he had attacked the four-poster bed and was doing his best to break loose one of its posts. "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" he screamed. "Roman Polansk is to blame for everything." We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

Then they told us not to make any more noise and left. Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

Shaking with rage, he had attacked the four-poster bed and was doing his best to break loose one of its posts. "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" he screamed. "Roman Polansk is to blame for everything." We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

Then they told us not to make any more noise and left. Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up..

Shaking with rage, he had attacked the four-poster bed and was doing his best to break loose one of its posts. "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" he screamed. "Roman Polansk is to blame for everything." We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

He was concerned by how drugged she sounded. When he learned that she had died, he was consumed with guilt at his failure to go to her place and obtain help for her. This was a likely factor in Lawford's own long, slow downward spiral.

Then they told us not to make any more noise and left. Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

He was concerned by how drugged she sounded. When he learned that she had died, he was consumed with guilt at his failure to go to her place and obtain help for her.

Then they told us not to make any more noise and left. Their visit had a sobering effect on Jesse, and he and [Jesse's girlfriend] Patti decided to leave soon afterward, taking their silent friend with them; I walked them to their car. As I stood on the street I heard John scream, "I hate Roman Polanski. He's no fuckin' good!" His voice was filled with equal parts of anger and anguish. He sounded just as he had on the night Spector had tied him up.

Shaking with rage, he had attacked the four-poster bed and was doing his best to break loose one of its posts. "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" he screamed. "Roman Polansk is to blame for everything." We had met Roman Polanski at a few parties, but John had never expressed any anger towards him. I watched as he systematically began to demolish the room.

But if she were participating in some sinister scheme against Marilyn, why would she have called the star's psychiatrist and summon him to the home?

Many of Goldman's supposedly outrageous claims -- e.g., about Lennon's drug use, violence, and bisexuality -- have since been confirmed (in some cases, by the same individuals who initially disputed them).

> > When I first approached Goldman I expected a balanced biography. I was simply horrified that anyone could say such terrible things about John and have them published. However, at that time, I was quite naive about how bad John's behavior and drug addiction were. So I just shut the door, and gave the book away.

However, now I know, as you have already said, that a lot of things Goldman says have been confirmed elsewhere, and now I have a much deeper understanding of what John got himself into..

> Goldman's portrait is dark compared to, say, Coleman's biography. But the Coleman book is an embarrassing and atrociously-written puff-piece. Greil Marcus gave it the thrashing it deserved.

> If you look at Goldman's sources, you'll see he spoke to all the right people. If you study his quotations from interviews and other authors, you'll see he was scrupulously accurate. And Goldman performed some amazing feats of research in delving into the pasts of many of the participants in Lennon's life. The more I study the book, the more I respect it.
