Movie Reviews of RFK Must Die: The Assassination of Bobby Kennedy
Movie Review: Genuinely interesting!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was an intriguing look into the assassination of one of our countries greatest leaders. This documentary, or "mockumentary", however you choose look at it at, went to great lengths to suggest yet another conspiracy theory regarding the infamous Kennedy's. While I may be biased because of my affection for the legacy of this family, it's hard to dispute some of the allegations.
A provocative claim is that C.I.A. agent David Morales, the JMWAVE Chief of Operations was involved. David Morales was also alleged to be involved in the assassination of president John F. Kennedy. There is actually video footage of someone who appears to be Morales at the Ambassador Hotel on the night of RKF's assassination. Ex-operatives and colleagues have confirmed that it was indeed Morales seen in the footage. David Morales was an avid, professed adversary of both John and Robert Kennedy.
Sirhan Sirhan, the assassin of Robert Kennedy has claimed he has no recollection of the incident. His defense team suggests experimental C.I.A. mind control. The C.I.A. and the Kennedy administration, along with Bobby who was the Attorney General, were at constant odds with each other. We have recently learned that the C.I.A. was not opposed to experimental practices (see: LSD and Project MKULTRA).
The most poignant disparity is the number of shots fired, the proximity of Sirhan to RFK and the silenced witnesses. Who was the woman in the polka dot dress? At what point do conspiracy theories and coincidence become something else? Are the assassinations of RFK, JFK, MLK and Malcolm X just happenstance? (see: The Assassinations, by James DiEugenio and Lisa Pease) In the name of objectivity, I implore people to do their own research and sift through the facts, conspiracy theories and "white noise".
Summary of RFK Must Die: The Assassination of Bobby Kennedy
On June 5, 1968, shortly after winning the hotly-contested California primary, Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy was slain in the pantry of the Los Angeles Ambassador hotel. Charged with the assassination is Sirhan Sirhan, a 24 year-old Palestinian whose notebooks repeatedly declare RFK MUST DIE! While Sirhan Sirhan recants his confession, investigatory oversights leave many questions unanswered:Why was RFK rerouted from his original destination in the hotel straight into the path of an assassin s bullet?
Who was the girl in the polka dot dress seen fleeing the hotel screaming We shot him, we shot him ?
Why was there a CIA presence at the hotel that night?
Why were additional bullets recovered but never entered into evidence?
Writer-director Shane O Sullivan, highly skeptical of the official report, conducted his own exhaustive investigation. Through exclusive interviews with eyewitnesses and invesitgators, as well as rare archival footage and a wealth of expert testimony, this disturning documentary sheds new light on the murder of one of America's most beloved politicians.
