This artfully constructed five-part series offers chilling evidence that American democracy has become a convenient lie; that a conspiratorial coup d'état removed a sitting president and then hid that fact from the American people. This sounds like the stuff of wild-eyed paranoia, but these filmmakers did their homework well--interviews include levelheaded witnesses, suspicious government agents, and Dallas cops present in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963. Some of the "proof" (especially in Episode 2, "The Forces of Darkness") seems a bit far-fetched, but the sheer number of unexplained facts is riveting. An autopsy attendant describes a procedure botched by meddling Secret Service agents. A deaf-mute eyewitness shares his recollection of uniformed men hiding a rifle and leaving the site of the assassination unchallenged. Eisenhower's security chief, present at the shooting, discusses fatal safety lapses--as well as mysterious shots coming from the opposite direction of the Texas School Book Depository. District Attorney Jim Garrison points out that Lee Harvey Oswald, a Marine assigned to Russian reconnaissance, operated a "Communist" organization out of a government intelligence office. Senator Ralph Yarbrough, present in the motorcade, tells of Kennedy's order to recall the troops from Vietnam--an order rescinded by the Pentagon three days after his death. But the most powerful elements of this documentary are the most personal, as hardened cops confess to lasting nightmares, as senatorial investigators tearfully recall the moment they realized the official story did not match the facts, and as simple bystanders share their lasting grief at having witnessed the gory death of America's innocence. --Grant Balfour

I love this series. About seven years ago I spent all day recording that off of the History Channel with no commericals. Its that good! I'm glad to see that its finally on DVD, but they do need to include everything. I think its a great overview of the assassination along with Jim Marrs Crossfire. This is a good primer to kick start any entry level JFK researcher.

This is the only History channel production that I believe. Of course they had to apologize for the original airing, they exposed the truth. They are owned by The Walt Disney Co., one of only 4 companies (GE, Time Warner/AOL & The News Corp) that own & control every major network, newspaper & magazine in the US and abroad.
Even if you exclude all of the witnesses in the DVD, many of whom are intelligent professionals, think on your own regardless of what the corporate owned mainstream media ... Read More

we have been trying to get this show for a long time and had problems getting it every where else. we are very impressed with amazon and will continue to buy things there. they were very prompt in sending it to us and it was at a very good price. i would also recommend this show to anyone who is interested in the kennedy assasination it was very informative.

This DVD is well presented, and is filled with some wonderful historic footage.
Unfortunately, its worth ends there.
The conspiracy theories in this documentary are just plain false.
After many years of research into this case, I have come to the rather disappointing and prosaic conclusion that Lee Harvey Oswald was indeed the murderer of JFK. He acted alone, there was no conspiracy.
So why do I say disappointing? For years I believed that Kennedy's assassination ... Read More

I said when I first watched the episodes on the History Channel in 2003 that this was the greatest programming I've ever seen on television. My wife had the insight to buy the DVDs for me and I have watched them again. The entire series is extremely well done. I am not a conspiracy theorist, but this is absolutely riveting, gut wrenching material, and I encourage everyone to watch it.
