Zapruder film/Tear Jerker


 * Everything about this film:
 * President Kennedy himself; this was a man struck down in his prime, a man who gave so much to so many and was shot down before he could forfill more.
 * Jackie Kennedy's reaction.
 * John Connally, the Govenor. He was haunted for the rest of his life and always wondered why he lived when the president died.
 * Nellie Connally; she always found it unfair that her husband lived while Jackie's died.
 * Clint Hill, the secret service agent who jumped into the car as it sped away. If you watch the Zapruder film, he is running full speed, and reaches the back of the car just in time for the bullet to hit the president in the head. The fact that Hill, being an agent, was risking his life to save the President's life, and his greatest failure was that he lived, makes it painfully tragic.
 * Abraham Zapruder was deeply disturbed by the nightmare that he caught on film, he never used another camera again. He didn't even keep a copy of the footage.
