Title: Oliver Stone's masterpiece
Review: This controversial film by Oliver Stone on the JFK assasination has taken on a life all its own. I recently saw it again on HD Net and I was drawn into it all over again by the brilliant performances, Stone's direction and the story itself. Many people have criticized Stone for taking liberties with the story but this is not a documentary this is a drama!! Costner is brilliant in particular and his summation scene in court is belongs to his best work (also counting his role in Eastwood's "A Perfect World"). The aim of an artist is to make us question the truth and Stone has certainly succeeded at that. Remember how many people felt the plot in "The Manchurian Candidate" grows eerily factual as time goes by!! If you are repelled by the current events now unfolding before us--the Iraq war, the recession--do see this film again!!
