David Leaf is an American documentary filmmaker and author, known for directing the music documentary The U.S. vs. John Lennon.

Focuses on music-related documentaries and historical subjects.

A DeBaser review by Confaloni rewatched David Leaf's documentary The U.S. vs. John Lennon and finds the film skilled but not wholly convincing. It traces Lennon's life, political activism, FBI surveillance, and exile/Green Card issues through the 1970s. The reviewer admires Lennon's musical legacy while questioning a hagiographic presentation.

For:Fans of music documentaries, Beatles/John Lennon researchers, readers interested in cultural and political history of the 1970s.

 Just the other night I rewatched the DVD of the film "The U.S. vs. John Lennon," a documentary made by David Leaf dedicated to the tumultuous relationship between musician John Lennon and the U.S. government in the 1970s (and until his tragic death in December 1980).
