The similarities were way too eerily close to Lee Harvey Oswald. It was Sinatra who took it out of the loop.Binghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680203136949315355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003345269984484749.post-21633627562270636792015-09-16T11:11:56.385-04:002015-09-16T11:11:56.385-04:00The story is that the Kennedy family pushed to hav...The story is that the Kennedy family pushed to have the film taken out of circulation.

What a great villain she is in this film. I've never cared much for Harvey, but he was perfect for this role.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11654733143289154960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003345269984484749.post-26322997562584986722012-03-21T11:11:59.803-04:002012-03-21T11:11:59.803-04:00Robert: Thanks for the comment!
