Film Analysis: The Men Who Killed Kennedy

On November 22,1963 the United States took a major toll in history. President Kennedy was assassinated around 12:30 pm while driving around in an open open hooded convertible in Texas. The culprit was none other than a U.S. Marines man named Lee Oswald, but this is not the story told by the video called The Men Who Killed Kennedy.
