1967
Directed by Bruce Conner
This is an extremely upset 13 minutes that is somewhat hard to find, so if you are on a List quest you should start looking for it early.
I am not going to spend to much time on this film, since it is not exactly something that I can review. There is some reediting of found footage after the Kennedy assassination but thankfully, nothing too graphic.
A very powerful film and one that definitely deserves to be on The List.
RATING: *****
Interesting Facts:
None, sorry. Let me know if you can't find a link and I will try to help!
What is it about this film that makes it almost impossible to find?
ReplyDeleteI happened to hit lucky and found it via a link suggested somewhere and got there before it was taken down.
It's not as if it's that controversial... It is in bad taste, it doesn't tell us who really did it (LBJ, with the candlestick , on the grassy knoll)
I don't know. I couldn't find Me and My Gal for eons, so I have no idea what that is about. Ooo so you think LBJ was involved? Can't wait to get to JFK and see your comments!
DeleteSounds interesting, might check it out sometime.
DeleteDefinitely worth the thirteen minutes.
DeleteReminds me of The Motorcade Sped On (www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLwWIIqObkg), which Annie Nightingale always used to play on her show.
ReplyDeleteContinuing the Radio 1 theme, John Peel of all people was in the police station when Oswald was brought in and can be seen in some of the photos.
Dessie .. the John Peel thing .. really? Wow, never heard of this ...
ReplyDeleteAccording to his (semi-auto)biography, yes
DeleteHe was living in Texas at the time and was a big fan of JFK. So when he heard the news of the shooting he rushed over to the police station to find out what was going on and happened to be there when they dragged Oswald in.
