#207. JFK
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/84/JFK-poster.png
Dir: Oliver Stone
Genre: Drama, Mystery
Year: 1991

JFK is so historically inaccurate that it's insulting. It's so over-the-top that it's laughable. And it's so long (3+ hours) that you begin to wonder how it's still going on. And yet I love this movie to death.

JFK is basically Oliver Stone's cocaine-induced fever dream that offers a glimpse into how a crazy paranoid person views America. I am sure that he takes this movie very seriously, but if you dare to watch it, my suggestion is that you take it all with a grain of salt. When you view the film as an expression of a conspiratorial, delusional mind, the inaccuracies become moot, the extremism thematically appropriate--and you will wish that it never ended.
