From Chris: Apparently Oliver Stone originally made this documentary as a  television mini-series, exploring his examination of the JFK  assassination and attempting to debunk the official Warren Commission  report. No channel picked it up, so he cut it down to 2 hours and  released it like this. He mentions how Shout Factory was the only label  willing to distribute it.

The audio commentary  is fascinating - Stone and his writing partner speculate how JFK branded  him a troublemaker in Hollywood and how he believes it hurt his  filmmaking career. He despises LBJ, who he blames for Vietnam. Almost  more entertaining than the actual documentary.

Bonus fact: My mother waited six hours in line with relatives to pay respects at JFK's casket in 1963.
