JFK--An Adaptation of the JFK Assassination
This film shows Oliver Stone's feelings. It takes a lot of courage to shoot such a controversial and sensitive topic. The difficult road of pursuing justice expressed in the film and the theme of truth to the public are very important in any country. A serious topic is also the most basic trust and expectation of the people in the country. After understanding the details of the Kennedy assassination process, I felt that Stone's adaptation of this incident was indeed of a high standard. Many...

Chasing between truth and truth (2006.2)
What can I do with three hours and ten minutes? Have a meal with a girl, sing at the cash drawer until your throat is hoarse, read a 100,000-word novel and write a ten-minute press release? If you've seen "JFK", none of the above will be the answer. This 189-minute film from Oliver Stone will make you think of it all and sit still in front of the TV. read it. In fact, I've put in six and a half hours for this movie. If you can think of "Hero" as a bowl of delicious Yangchun noodles on a...

I went to the scene today, yes, it was the scene where President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, USA more than 40 years ago. The official The sixth-floor museum was set up on the sixth floor of the book building where the official murderer was located. I went in to see it, and after I came out, I met some democrats at the unofficial murder scene not far away, and they spittle. To explain, "unofficial history" is usually much more attractive than "formal history", which is another "museum"...

It's a really thought-provoking film, and aside from the final court statement, I also liked the clip of Garrison going to Washington to meet a veteran who knew the inside story, except the lines themselves were translated concisely, very well, and the veteran's voice-over It is also very charming. I later learned that it was the voice of Zhang Hanyu, who has recently become popular. And this part is the crux of the whole film. The reason behind Kennedy's stab was revealed scene by scene in the...

The film ended in defeat, because such a coup d'état was also the director's suspicion and could not be reached subjectively. In fact, we can draw conclusions from the images of the documentary and the constant flashbacks of the clips, but the significance of the film is not only that. The film hopes to use such cases to let more young people pursue the truth and strengthen their own...

Centering around a strictly advanced main point, the film logically and meticulously collages a series of memories and clues like fragments, and deduces them. It doesn't matter who the killer is, what matters is why Kennedy died. Whoever said that a democratic society is full of sunshine, the shady scene has always been a political norm. Oliver Stone's most outstanding performance, an Austrian narrative structure and a remarkable courage....
Jerry Johnson: You know, I must say, we have heard some strange things coming out of your office in New Orleans. First, we heard that the Cuban exiles killed the President. Then the mob. Now your latest theory seems to be that the CIA, the FBI, and the Pentagon, and the White House, all combined in some elaborate conspiracy to kill John Kennedy. Let me ask you, is there anyone besides Lee Harvey Oswald who you think *didn't* conspire to kill the president?
Jim Garrison: They killed Robert F. Kennedy. He won, and they killed him. They shot him down.
Liz Garrison: Oh God. Both of them? They got both brothers?
Bill Brousard: Clay Bertrand is Clay Shaw?
