| Unique Look

Finally a look at Joe Kennedy and how he influenced so much. His place in history is seen as it was for the most part. His ambition and influence used on his family to effect great events in US history is brought to life in dramatic fashion. Do not know of any other project out there that captures his Godfather like persona that he had. Very good drama. The life of the Kennedy's is unique part of history and it being captured like it was is a good look into the power and influence that existed during that time. Found it educational and entertaining. Putting history and entertainment together is difficult but this project succeeded in doing just that. Acting performances where sporadic. Some excellent and others weak. Worth seeing.

Goofs

When "Dr. Feelgood" is injecting Jackie Kennedy the camera shows him withdrawing the needle. As the needle exits her skin, you can see it is a flat spring loaded "Special effects" needle and not a real hypodermic needle.
