Review Page
Directed By: Oliver Stone
Starring:Kevin Costner,Gary Oldman, Sissy Spacik, Kevin Bacon, Tommy Lee Jones, Joe Pesci,and Donald Sutherland

****Highly controversial examination of President John F. Kennedy's 1963 assassination, from the viewpoint of New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison. Debated widly because of Stone's conspiracy theory, it caused new calls to open old government records from the 1977 House Commitee of Assassinations investigation. Outstanding performances from principal and supporting cast, stunning cinematography and excellent editing. Even Garrison himself shows up as Cheif justice Earl Warren. Claimed by some to be a cinematic masterpiece (one person being me) and other see it as a revisionist piece of history that deserves as much examination as a grain of salt.
