[Ghoulish Delight]

What I came away from JFK with was that the details aren't even important. Shaw, O'Keefe, Ferrie, note that none of them are even mentioned in Garrison's final courtroom rundown of the day.

The important thing is that once you see the Zapruder film and conclude that no rational human being could watch that and conclude that Kennedy was hit from behind, then you HAVE to believe that there was at least a 2nd shooter, and you HAVE to believe that the Warren Commission willfully covered that detail. That's the lynch pin.

Garrison's details are circumstantial. He knew as much. Those details may be right, may be wrong. In all likelihood, there's a good deal that is right and a good deal that is wrong. And, considering the nature of the conspiracy, in all likelihood every individual up and down the line has been fed a different truth, just enough to get them to play their part. So contraditctions are bound to appear, purpopsefully designed by whomever was really running the show.

As Garrison said in the film, Clay was nothing more than a toe hold. Maybe his version was inacurate, but Clay and all the others had SOMETHING to do with it, that is pretty clear, and worth taking the risk of being wrong just to shine a light on it.

That said, I found the film's attempts to be sympathetic towards Garrison to be a bit heavy handed. It was obvious that they were trying very hard to vindicate him and say, "Is he really crazy, or the sanest man in the country at the time?" The fact is, he was a paranoid consipracy theorist. He had to be to think like he did.

But then, I forgive it becuase while this movie perhaps went too far in being sympathetic to him, it's a fair bet that the portrayals in the media that have lead people like JWBear to vilify him are equally exagerated. So maybe he deserves a measure of vindication.
