Gene Siskel Film Center says…

Political documentaries aren't entertaining unless controversy or conspiracy is involved, and director Robert Stone's Oswald's Ghost has both in spades. Looking back at the by-now-mythic circumstances surrounding President Kennedy's 1963 assassination, the film launches enough new theories to make Bigfoot jealous. Everyone has heard the terms "grassy knoll" and "second shooter," but in the 40 years since, only more questions have surfaced; Ghost proposes a few answers, through interviews with such pivotal figures as Dan Rather and Norman Mailer.
