What happens

JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass is a 2021 documentary film about the assassination of John F. Kennedy directed by Oliver Stone, based on the 1992 non-fiction book Destiny Betrayed: JFK, Cuba, and the Garrison Case by James DiEugenio and on newly declassified evidence about the case. It premiered on July 12, 2021, in the Cannes Premiere section at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival. Stone described it as "an important bookend to my 1991 film. It ties up many loose threads, and hopefully repudiates much of the ignorance around the case and the movie". Originally conceived as a four-hour epic under the title JFK: Destiny Betrayed, the film is narrated by Whoopi Goldberg and Donald Sutherland. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
