Really the first person

A week after the assassination of President Kennedy, when faced with an interview with Jacqueline by a reporter from Life magazine, Jacqueline was sometimes in a trance and sometimes excited about the great changes in her life. A first lady who appeared in front of the public calmly and powerfully after her husband was assassinated. She wanted to participate in her husband's state funeral, explain her father's departure to the two young children, and even have questions about inheritance. When Vice President Lyndon Johnson was sworn in as President of the United States on the plane, she wore a blood-stained pink suit, showing her courage and composure to the American people. However, outside of the TV broadcast, she lost control of her emotions and was unable to calm down. . For most people around her, it was the president of the United States who was assassinated. The first priority was state affairs. For her, it was the father of her husband and children. The first thing was the grief of losing a loved one.

    Biographical films that pretend to be familiar from the title are dangerous, because the audience is likely to be confronted with a lot of homely babble that only acquaintances find interesting. This film is obviously no exception :)

Jackie quotes

  • The Priest: Take comfort in those memories.

    Jackie Kennedy: I can't. They're mixed up with all the others.

  • [first lines]

    The Journalist: Mrs. Kennedy? They told me to come up. And I'm so sorry for your loss.

    Jackie Kennedy: Have you read what they've been writing? Krock and Merriman and all the rest?

    The Journalist: Yes, I have.

    Jackie Kennedy: Merriman's such a bitter man. It's been just one week. Already they're treating him like some dusty old artifact to be shelved away. That's no way to be remembered.

    The Journalist: And how would you like him remembered, Mrs. Kennedy?

    Jackie Kennedy: [stammering] I...

    Jackie Kennedy: You understand that I will be editing this conversation just in case I don't say exactly what I mean?

    The Journalist: With all due respect, that seems very unlikely, Mrs. Kennedy.

    [pause]

    The Journalist: Right. Okay. Uh, so this will be your own version of what happened?

    Jackie Kennedy: Exactly. Come in.
