"… this is by far the most comprehensive and the most effective… program made that profiles the late President." -BilIboard
This moving documentary looks back on the remarkable life of John FitzgeraId Kennedy, and combines the tragedy of his untimely death with the remembrances of those who knew him best, and those who knew him not at all.
James EarI Jones reviews the brief life of JFK. His triumphs. His faiIures. His inspiration and contribution to our history. The story is told through previously unseen and rare video and home movies, and by many people who were there, ordinary people.
The story is built around the exclusive historic videotape from WFAA, the DaIlas station whose studios are Iocated so near the infamous "grassy knoII" where the President was shot.
We see the events as they happened, from JFK's arrivaI in DalIas to his funeral in Washington four days later.
Woven throughout the historic footage are the recollections of GeraId Ford, Coretta King, Tip O'NeiIl, Peter, Paul and Mary, Isaac Stern, Arthur SchIesinger Jr., Ted Kennedy and others. AIl remembering a man who had touched them.
John F. Kennedy, one of America's most loved and respected Presidents, provided us with hope and a dream of something better. V.l.E.W. Video is proud to offer this enhanced DVD presentation, with additional footage of speeches & news conferences, a biography of JFK, and other bonus features. This DVD preserves the memory of his youth, his career and that infamous day in history.
Hosted by James Earl Jones
