A very confusing story concerning the assassination of JFK., 21 September 2000
Author:
Allan Ekstrom from Ontario, Canada
This story told via flashback and double and triple flashback is sort of
like the "Slaughterhouse Five"(1972)of JFK flicks. Only it is not nearly
as
coherent. The story centers on the problems incurred by Jack Ruby(Banner)
and Lee Oswald(Nuggette) as they are hiding in exile in the Orient during
the 1977 House Investigation. The flashback sequences are culled from
Banner's un-released movie "LHO" originally filmed in 1992. The more
current scenes were shot in Hong Kong and don't make a lot of sense. The
plot is hard to follow and there seem to be a lot of characters that float
in and out of this over-long story that don't even need to be there. Of
course the score is done by the G-men, it is not their best. Pass on this
one.

This hodge-podge of characters and events does not seem to have ANY rhyme
or
reason. The plot has something to do with an investigation into the JFK
assassination, and there is much archival news footage used, and much of
it
must have been filmed in Dallas, Texas, but somehow the central characters
end up in Asia with the CIA and researchers seeking them out. In the
midst
of all this the movie stops periodicly to break into meaningless songs.
Parts of it are poorly dubbed into English, and parts have sub-titles.
This
is just not a very good movie.
