NY judge: Film can use Lennon song
NEW YORK - Yoko Ono lost her legal bid today to stop the playing of a 15-second excerpt of John Lennon’s song "Imagine" in a film challenging the theory of evolution.
Lennon’s widow had sued the makers of "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed," saying they used the ex-Beatle’s anthem without her permission.
U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein ruled that the filmmakers are protected under the fair use doctrine.
The plaintiffs, including Ono and Lennon’s sons, Sean and Julian, "have not shown a clear likelihood of success on the merits because ... defendants are likely to prevail on their affirmative defense of fair use," Stein wrote in his decision in Manhattan federal court. "That doctrine provides that the fair use of a copyrighted work for the purposes of criticism and commentary is not an infringement of copyright."
Attorneys from both sides did not immediately return calls for comment.
The movie, which opened on U.S. screens in April and is set for release in Canada on Friday and on DVD in October, presents a sympathetic view of intelligent design, the theory that the universe is too complex to be explained by evolution alone.
At a hearing last month, the filmmakers’ lawyer, Anthony T. Falzone, said that if the judge granted Ono’s request for an injunction against the film, it would "muzzle" the filmmakers’ free-speech rights.
Falzone said the segment of the song in the film — "nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too" — was central to the movie because "it represents the most popular and persuasive embodiment of this viewpoint that the world is better off without religion."
The film, he said, is "asking if John Lennon was right and it’s concluding he was wrong."
Ono countered by saying, "One of the most basic rights I control by reviewing and choosing licenses is the right to say ’no.’ The filmmakers simply looted me of the ability to do so."
The film features Ben Stein (no relation to the judge), an actor and former speech writer for Presidents Nixon and Ford, defending intelligent design.
The defendants were Premise Media Corp. of Dallas, Rampant Films of Sherman Oaks, Calif., and Rocky Mountain Pictures Inc. of Salt Lake City.

She said: "I think she is delighted that we could reach an amicable settlement. Nobody really wants to go to court. It would have been hard going for her.

The payment includes compensation for money the actress would have earned had she been able to carry on working.

The calling of San Francisco dark metallers Weakling remains shrouded in mystery and local legend, partly the resultant of their possess efforts. Some of what is known is that they formed in the late '90s and consisted of singer John Gossard, guitarist Josh Smith (better known as a member of the (Ass) Champs), keyboardist Casey Ward, bassist Sarah Weiner, and drummer "Small Sunshine." The band's sole recording, Dead As Dreams, barely even came out, as the original plan had been to only release one copy of the album and give it to a stripling in Europe. (In that respect were besides plans to bury copies of the album and and then give customers maps so that they could attack to find oneself and dig up the album for themselves.) In addition, the band did not duty tour, and by the time Dead As Dreams did come out -- which it did in 2000, to surprising hail in parts of the metallic element metro and on the fringes of the indie careen globe -- the band had already busted up. After their dissolution, Weakling's members stayed busy with a kind of unlike projects -- Smith with the Champs, Gossard with the barbarian metallic element band the Gault, Little Sunshine with death/black metallers Sangre Amado, and Ward with the Kill Rock Stars band the Lies.
Mariah Carey plans to marry again next year
“Instead of trying to be like, ‘you’re invited, but, shhh, don’t tell anybody,’ we’re just going to have another [wedding] next year,” Carey told Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show Tuesday. “[Nick’s] plan is to have one every year.”
Those who attended her top-secret ceremony last month were “mainly people there to do my hair and help me with the dress.” The happy couple only brought along three friends each because, “we wanted to be on the beach and we didn�t want other people taking pictures,” said Carey.
