Let me put this straight, I love to hear conspiracy theories who does have an enigmatic and hooking atmosphere, like watching classified articles or something like that, I don´t like stupid conspiracy theories like this one of the moon or the flat earthers or the Anti vaccinaties or things like that i despise how humanity´s ignorance increased over the years instead of growing up.
However, i remember watching this documentary when i was a kid, and it wasn´t the conspiracy that hooked me into watching the whole thing, what it really hooked me is that type of cold and creepy atmosphere that i hasn´t watched (Unless it was DrossRotzank) in a documentary before.
The editing is limited, but the narration, the adding of those vintage clips and the great song "Starlight" composed by the genius of Bernard Hermann increased the creepyness of the documentary and i actually enjoyed it, its the first time a dumb conspiracy theory like this was enjoyful to me and that´s a win of course, i mean if more documentaries could use a creepy atmosphere into their themes it would be awesome!
My favorite scene was the ending, first it starts with a boring and impartial speech about "freedom" that almost killed the documentary, but then the zapruder film is shown of in slow motion with the typical American-Millitary-Heroic-Type of generic music, everything went normal, but then....
Silence...pure dreadful silence.... And JFK´s head gets blown of and there´s still that awful silence, no shot sounds, no screaming nothing, just silence...
That is the scene that gave this documentary a 5, it´s the creative use of editing and thematic atmosphere that makes a film memorable, and while this is a dumb film and i don´t recommend to nobody, i´d just recommend it to film editors like me, just to analize the creepyness and the discomfort of the images and sound, and its a worthly experience if you keep in mind those types of things without focusing on the story.
