Marie M. Muchmore (August 5, 1909 – April 26, 1990) was one of the witnesses to the assassination of United States President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963. A color 8 mm film that Muchmore made is one of the primary documents of the assassination. The Muchmore film, with other 8 mm films taken by Abraham Zapruder and Orville Nix, was used by the Warren Commission to investigate the assassination and to position the presidential limousine in a forensic recreation of the event in May 1964. Early years Muchmore was born Marie Mobley in Ardmore, Oklahoma. Her mother was Chickasaw, listed as half Chickasaw by blood on the Dawes Rolls. One of her sisters was Tessie Mobley (1906–1990), who became a notable operatic soprano. Marie had no children.

The Muchmore film consists of seven sequences: six before the assassination, and one during the shooting.

She then turned and walked with Wilma Bond several yards northwestward to again film the President's limousine as it went down Elm Street. Her film then captured the fatal shot to the President's head, seen from about 138 feet (42 m) away.
