soundtrack excellent

The sound track behind this film would make a good atmospheric Cd. There are fine performances by the principles. The film has many good moments and several dark ones that include such racist behaviour by southern police officers, that if that is reflective of how they are,one would not want to go to the southern states of America ever. The film is crosscut with the assassination of J F K Kennedy moving from Dallas to Washington, the funeral of the President then the assassination of Lee Harvey Oswald. Remembering the paranoia in America at the time about conspiracy, Red plots, Castro involvement or Mafia killing and the condemnation of the Dallas police force that followed because they seemed to prefer Kennedy dead and wanted only to put it to bed as quickly as possible. The police would have been very twitchy, but that wouldn't excuse the kind of pure nastiness portrayed here.
