JFK
“The story that won't go away.”
Director
Oliver Stone
Screenplay
Zachary Sklar, Oliver Stone
Oliver Stone's sprawling conspiracy epic follows New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (Kevin Costner) as he builds an increasingly elaborate case alleging a vast government conspiracy behind the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Blending documentary footage, reenactments, and rapid-fire editing across multiple film stocks, Stone constructs a dizzying, paranoid mosaic that treats the official Warren Commission account with open contempt. The film ignited fierce public and journalistic controversy over its historical accuracy, even as it won Academy Awards for editing and cinematography and helped pressure Congress into releasing previously classified assassination-related documents. Regardless of one's stance on its conspiracy theories, it remains a landmark of formally daring, politically incendiary studio filmmaking.
