Oliver Stone’s epic, controversial recreation of the 1963 Kennedy assassination in Dallas. Focusing on the investigations of New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, and mixing documentary footage, reconstruction, and speculation, the film advances a conspiracy theory to account for one of American history’s darkest chapters., Oliver Stone’s JFK is based in part on On the Trail of the Assassins by Jim Garrison, which should be warning enough that the facts will not get in the way of a good story. The film centers upon the 1967 attempt by New Orleans DA Garrison (played by Kevin Costner) to prosecute prominent businessman Clay Shaw (Tommy Lee Jones) for complicity in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Most of the “facts” presented in the film–the opening-scene gangland hit of Rose Cheramie (Sally Kirkland), the connection between Ruby (Brian Doyle-Murray) and Oswald (Gary Oldman), the governmental interference during the autopsy, the “planted” bullet–are really nothing more than the familiar shaky theories that have been trotted out by conspiracy buffs for the past three decades. What Stone has done is to make a compendium of everyone of these theories (a dramatic device previously attempted in the TV movie The Trial of Lee Harvey Oswald), then to give them credence through the power of cinematic persuasion. He also contrives (brilliantly, it must be admitted) to make Garrison’s inevitable courtroom defeat seem like a moral victory. Subtlety is studiously avoided throughout the film, from the “casual” implication that self-styled witness David Ferrie’s (Joe Pesci) suicide was nothing of the kind, to the inclusion of a convenient “deep throat” government agent (Donald Sutherland) who, standing just outside the Lincoln Memorial, verbally provides Garrison with all the damning evidence that he needs–with the promise that he’ll deny everything if brought to court. Possibly Stone’s most remarkable achievement is making Jim Garrison appear to be a stable, totally reliable and scrupulously honest human being; a brief shot of the real Garrison, feverishly playing a cameo role as a wild-eyed Earl Warren, rather undercuts Stone’s deification of the man. Our favorite scene: After warning the public that the conspirators won’t be satisfied merely with JFK’s blood, Garrison witnesses live TV coverage of Robert Kennedy’s assassination (there wasn’t any); he tells his wife (Sissy Spacek) of the event, whereupon she cries “Oh, my God! You were right!” Nominated for several Oscars, JFK won awards for best photography (Robert Richardson) and editing (Joe Husching, Pietro Scalia)., Who really killed Kennedy? Oliver Stone’s provocative, spellbinding conspiracy classic stars Kevin Costner as the DA determined to dig up the truth., The Warren Commission claimed that one man was responsible for the assassination of President John F Kennedy. Director Oliver Stone has other ideas, linking shooter Lee Harvey Oswald with the Mafia, the Dallas underworld and the FBI. Excellent courtroom drama packed with great performances., The events surrounding JFK’s assassination are investigated by New Orleans DA Jim Garrison in this all-star docudrama examining one of the great controversies of the 20th Century., The events surrounding JFK’s assassination are investigated., The show features New Orleans DA Jim Garrison who investigates one of the greatest controversies of 20th century, that is, JFK’s assassination., Oliver Stone’s recreation of the 1963 Kennedy assassination in Dallas and its aftermath, focusing on the investigations of New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison. Mixing documentary footage, reconstruction and speculation, the film advances a conspiracy theory to account for one of American history’s darkest chapters, linking government corruption, the Vietnam war, and the intelligence community with the killing., Kevin Costner, Gary Oldman and Jack Lemmon star in Oliver Stone’s conspiracy thriller that masqueraded as historical document, but proved gripping enough to scoop two Oscars (photography and editing) and be nominated for a further six. Stone approaches his exploration of one of the most famous assassinations in history via the investigations of New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison. Like many in America, and around the world, Garrison felt the official investigation into the killing of John F Kennedy in Dallas, 1963, was far too cursory, and he set out to reconstruct the day’s events via every piece of information he could lay his hands on. His conclusions included the now long-established idea that Lee Harvey Oswald couldn’t have worked alone. Stone drags a wide range of other suspects into the supposed cover-up, including Lyndon Baines Johnson, the Mafia and J Edgar Hoover, and uses archive footage to bolster his various claims (though, interestingly, he’s not entirely sold on all of Garrison’s theories). Leaving the rights and wrongs of Stone’s interpretation of history aside, the director delivers and compellingly paranoid thriller that fairly fizzes along and whose cast is studded with the likes of Sissy Spacek, Joe Pesci, Tommy Lee Jones, Walter Matthau, Kevin Bacon, John Candy and Donald Sutherland., Details the actions of New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison, who takes it upon himself to investigate the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas, in 1963 Garrison is extremely suspicious of the official story presented by the Fbi, and what he already knows and what he subsequently learns lead him to suspect that there is more to the story than the public is being told., Oliver Stone’s investigation of the conspiracy theory surrounding the shooting of President Kennedy stars Kevin Costner, Sissy Spacek and Tommy Lee Jones., A New Orleans DA discovers there’s more to the Kennedy assassination than the official story.
