JFK: 3 SHOTS THAT CHANGED AMERICA

Oct 17, 2009 10:13 PM
I can't believe that there have been no comments posted on this show !!! I think it is a great "History" documentary, and the best show that has been on HISTORY since "102 MINUTES THAT CHANGED AMERICA"- maybe even better than "102 MINUTES.....".

For those who did watch the program, in the opening and closing film clip- taken from I guess what was a car checking out the route preceeding the motorcade ?

Anyway, the clip shows the car making the right turn from Main onto Houston, and traveling up Houston toward Elm and the TSBD- it looks like the clip shows a good shot of the 6th Floor window- window looks closed at the time.

I had always thought there was no film of the 6th Floor window prior to the shooting- only scanned as high as the 5th ??? Anybody have any info or insight on this ?

I found the series fascinating in terms of the footage that has never been seen on national television prior to the debut of this program. I will pose a question to the online community viewing the History Channel forums. During part two of "JFK: 3 Shots That Changed America", a clip is shown from the Monterey Pop Festival in May of 1967. David Crosby of The Byrds makes his famous statement about the JFK conspiracy prior to starting the group's musical set. The song that followed was not "He Was A Friend Of Mine" which would have been appropriate. Instead, another Byrds song was inserted which sounded similar but was probably used because the rights to "He Was A Friend Of Mine" could not be secured. What is the title of the Byrd's song that was used in its place? The song title does not appear in the closing credits.
