JFK is a sprawling beautiful shot piece of speculative historical fiction. There are so many A-List actors with bit parts that you can feel their passion for the content through the camera. Jack Lemon, Ed Asner, Walter Mathau, Joe Pesci, Kevin Bacon, the list goes on. Oliver Stone lives somewhere between fact and fiction. There's enough actual footage to make the implausible parts of the conspiracy theories seem like the gospel truth. The whole picture is an exercise in perception vs. Reality. You'll be spellbound from the opening quote the closing credits. JFK changed filmmaking for everyone. There's no Oppenheimer without JFK.
