Think for yourself

I was excited for this documentary as it contains updated info. If you actually believe the Warren commission report, you probably won't like this. I am stunned that this farce (warren commission) was believed by anyone. Issues with the magic bullet, witness reports, evidence, the autopsy, all cannot be denied. This material is fascinating and Stone knows how to tie all of the information together for the viewer. Every time I delve into the JFK era, I learn something new. Hopefully you will too. Stone tears apart the government's narrative, piece by piece in this documentary. Of course this material will be divisive, but it raises some alarming questions/possibilities and leaves no doubt of a vast cover up and conspiracy that continues to this day. Here we are almost 60 years later, still waiting for information to be declassified. Some of this material is amazingly still a matter of "national security" says the government.

We will never know what actually happened, that is clear. But I hope projects like these can both shed light on the past and help us in the future. Those responsible for tragedies need to be held accountable. I hope this film is educational for everyone, and lights a fire in others. Everyone should be angry about nonsense like this.

More JFK, but still not enough

This makes a good double bill with the movie JFK - also by Oliver Stone. It does have a few new things that have been uncovered in the meantime ... that is since the movie was released 30 years ago. Of course we still will not get totally satisfied. This again raises questions and cannot answer them all ... it can answer a few from the movie (we see clips from it here),but raises new ones too.

Stone seems to have an obsession when it comes to JFK ... and maybe he is on to something. But maybe not... we know that a lot of things are possible and a few connections are being made ... but no overall conclusion can be made. Not yet at least ... but at least we get to see Oliver Stone wandering the streets ... and of course a lot of archive material and so forth.

For one time, i could have answered her with " I'm fine: I watched an amazing documentary ! "

My diet of Pay Tv movies ended after 4 long empty months because as soon as I have noticed this Stone's return to JFK case on my channels, i knew that a good evening was ahead me. Last time I heard about it, it was for Deauville festival and i asked then: " so now, who killed JFK?"

The documentary fails to give an exact answer if you want names, occupations and strategy. However, as in his movie, Stone's opinion points towards the military complex and rogue CIA with help from FBI.

But unlike the movie which was a fast paced fiction, here Stone slows down the tempo and let the footages run a long time. Several thematic are analysed: the bullets, the gun, the autopsy, New Orléans, the bay of pigs, the international politics, the Vietnam,...

At the end, it's an excellent, useful embellishment to the movie as both are about the same thing but deliver in different ways.

What i keep is the feeling that JFK and 9/11 resonate with the same vibes: a national tragedy, a official report and a lot, much questions...

And ice of the cake, this documentary achieves to learn me a new fact.. What happened in Chicago in August 1963 is indeed very chilly....
