Whenever I rewatch JFK I forget that Gary is even in it. He is that amazing in the role you forget the actor.
Yeah definitely true
Have to agree.. Much later the band Manic Street Preachers made a song called 'I'm just a Patsy'. In that song there is an audio clip about Oswald arguing that he was just a patsy… For many years I believed it was Oswald's voice.. BUT it was Gary Oldman in JFK.
I've long held that Gary Oldman is one of only a very few actors who "disappear" into their roles. Alec Guinness was another. And Daniel Day-Lewis.
That said, in JFK, almost the entire cast pulls this off.
@@jondellar hello, you just named la crème de la crème of British actors (indeed of the world!!!!)
@@bernardtassart7225 Day-Lewis is irish.
Gary didn't play Oswald, he became Oswald.
Don't agree
Gary shot Kennedy.
........and should have been nominated for an Oscar for this.
STARTING TO BELIEVE OSWALD WAS A GOOD MAN SET UP
He did. He was so enigmatic you could never figure him out. Just look at his right wing Intelligence connections, that leads you right to the conspirators...
Gary Oldman did an excellent job in his portrayal of Oswald, getting all the mannerisms down.
'NIX Film' (RUclips 'Johnny Alpsed' version only)...You can see various gun shots from various directions - the white streaks. JFK Assassination.
He had been bought
Sublime. Disappeared into the role like Val Kilmer in The Doors.
@@mogadon7 Ridiculous.
Gary Oldman is hands down, one of the Very Best actors of our time !
Absolutely. In Harry Potter Gary portrayed a wizard. But it seems that in every film he's in, he not only gets the accent perfect, but he is like a chameleon, changing his face, mannerisms, etc. And portraying Oswald so flawlessly? Sheer wizardry. I've never known of any actor who could do what Gary can do
@@toddmayer6859 watch Romeo is bleeding, such an underrated movie with him
that movie is dynamite
oh yes he is
Gary’s such a good actor it took me years to figure out he’s British.
When one watches his performance in True Romance, that's when you realize how great he really is at portraying about anybody while fooling us into being what he portrays on screen.
Hell, I'm JUST realizing it myself!!!
Gary's not Welsh. South London man all the way.
@@zekejones2249 Thanks. I should've looked it up rather than taking a comment at face value and changed it to Welsh.
I just found out now!
When I first saw 'JFK' I actually thought, as many thousands of others also, that Gary's interpretation of Oswald was actually real film of the man himself. His visual likeness, married with his accent and characterisation were outstanding.
If you know Oswald was 23 it's obvious it can't be him in some close ups. Gary was 33 at the time. However, that doesn't take anything away for me.
i agree. he was 24. but having played him so well and knowing his young age the idea he had motive, dreamt up and executed the plan to kill jfk single handedly is laughable. like osama B L after him he was just a patsy
Robert richardsson is one hell of a director of photography... they manipulated those images so good its VERY hard to see what is original photage and not cuz i think there are some real shots in there
I remember walking through a supermarket one day and just immediately looking in the mirror and turns out I was Gary Oldman, that's how good of an actor he is.
🤣
I have told people that Gary Oldman is in JFK and they watch the movie and ask me "where is he?"
and that is call an Actor with capital ``A``.
I didnt realize it was him until after
WTF ???? Gary was playing Oswarl ???? Daaaaaamn. Nailed that role. Great actor. Love your work Gary !!!
First time I watched JFK was 91, I didn’t know Gary Oldman at that time , but after couple years , I was so shocked and surprised of Gary’s performance in “Leon the professional”. He is a excellent actor
Gary Oldman is one of the greatest unsung actors of our time. Fantastic performances. He makes you forget it's him and buries himself in the character. I didn't even know he's British until now.
Oliver Stone’s JFK (1991) wasn’t Gary Oldman’s initial film role, but it was my first time seeing him in a movie. I well remember being blown away by his depiction of Lee Oswald, who had prior to that time been a two-dimensional shadow in every film and documentary made. I immediately needed to know who this man was. I passionately followed his career, transported into other places and experiences like so many other theater audience members as well as his peers working along side him.
Oldman’s mastery of disappearing into characters provided him the well deserved reputation as a chamelion. By the time he received a Best Actor Academy Award for his portrait of Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour (2017), the only surprising part of the honor was that he hadn’t been presented one sooner. Even the role in his vast filmography that Gary personally can’t stand - Zorg in Luc Beeson’s The Fifth Element (1997) - is beloved by people everywhere.
Oldman is one of the humblest, most grounded and generous actors you will ever meet. More than that, he is unequivocally one of the greatest actors of his generation.
one of the best movies ever made. absolutley rivetting with titans in the cast.
How can it be one of the best movies made when it is mostly fantasy?
And I bet you most of those great actors will tell you its not real its fantasy fiction.
@@randyharris3175 It is not fantasy. You just shouldn´t believe everything you hear in the TV
@@krystofodehnal9448 I've studied this case extensively for almost 2 years I can tell you 100 percent that film was pure garbage.
@@randyharris3175 Ok, fair enough. So, what is your version?
His comment about the files, very astute. An even more astute question, that I have had for some time, is if it was so simple and straightforward a plan by a single, lone gunman, how did there come to be a million pages of evidence? Certainly the scenario that Jim Garrison exposed would need that much paperwork. The world has come unravelled, and it began in Dealy Plaza. Btw, first time I heard Gary Oldman's true voice. What an actor!
I think it was earlier than Dealy Plaza, I think it began in Sarajevo. But I agree on Oswald.
So now the problem is that there is too much evidence?
@@bojandolinar1535 I was 'excited' when trump announced the files were to be released, but WHY on planet earth would anything pertaining to a lone gunman nut job communist sympathizer whom pulled this off single handed 'possibly' be still be considered 'classified?' it makes no sense
@@patriceaqa288 Well lots of material that was once classified was already released, so you can take a look and decide what information was worth 'hiding'. While you're at it you can also check if new information implicates any other shooter or exonerates Oswald in any way.
Everything is in your hands.
@@bojandolinar1535 I agree with everything of what you said, However what on planet earth would be necessary to 'not' release? Why redact what you did? Why still deem certain things 'unreleasable' it just doesn't make sense. Show everything in its entirety
Gary Oldman is a gift to humanity
He was in the window with the rifle. He looked through the sight. He walked the same route as Oswald post shots. “No way! How on earth could anyone achieve this.” ~Gary Oldman.
That’s because there isn’t. And that new documentary has had 59 years to convince people there was a lone gunman. I will never believe Oswald acted alone nor do I believe we will ever know who/what exactly happened. The mystery lives on.
Oswald had 10-12 seconds to fire 3 shots from the sixth floor window, and that's plenty of time. Howard Brennan was 93 feet from the sniper's nest and told two DPD officers a description of who he saw in the window firing at JFK. That description led to officer JD Tippit to stop Oswald, and Tippit was killed. Oswald tested positive on his hand for nitrates for firing a weapon. His palm print and shirt fibers were found on the rifle stashed on the sixth floor connected to his alias, Alex Hidell. Back yard photos of Oswald with both firearms have been authenticated multiple times, and Marina Oswald said she took them.
@4kfrank276 are you a comedian?
Gary makes a valid point......If you have nothing to hide then let's reveal all of those old files!
But they have something to hide. That is the whole purpose of classified material. But it also doesn't automatically mean they are hiding some info that would cast doubt on the fact that Oswald did it.
spot on
He answered his own question with that statement.
These are all distractions from asking the real question: “Why was JFK killed?” Oliver Stone’s masterpiece film and documentary explain why.
*DECEMBER 2022* Just dropping in here to document it ... the files are coming out now...
The best portrayal of Lee Harvey Oswald ever. He WAS Oswald.
Great actor, amazing reflection
Horrible jim gordon.horrid
I love him as Jim Gordon. You don’t know what you’re talking about, dude.
Oswald did not fire a shot that day. If you don't know that you need to do more investigation because it is very apparent.
In that case we look forward to you explaining how the people framing him knew:
- Oswald would show up at the Paine house Nov 21
- Oswald wouldn't simply stand out on the sidewalk during the parade
- nobody would ever find any bullets or fragments that don't match to his gun
- Oswald would immediately flee the building and go to Oak Cliff
- Officer Tippit wouldn't simply outdraw and capture his attacker
- Oswald would agree to help frame himself trying to shoot a second cop
- Oswald would lie to police and refuse to cooperate
- Oswald would refuse help from the President of the Dallas Bar Association pending learning whether he could get his first choice, a lawyer he'd never met who specialized in left-wing causes
- Oswald would act so smug in jail he'd even convince his own brother he's guilty
- Oswald, asked on live TV if he shot Kennedy, would just shrug a hollow, rambling reply that all but dodges the question
- they can safely count on scores of police, FBI, military personnel, doctors, x-ray techs, ballistics experts, Oswald family members, journalists, whole commissions, to obey illegal orders to commit crimes and make themselves all accessories to murder and treason....
I hope that Oldman gets remembered as one of the greatest actors in the history of cinema. There has been no other actor that I have said "He was in that movie", "He played that character". He acts like a magician.
Rewatched JFK a few weeks ago and Oldman was as phenomenal as I remembered. It's not just the accurate recreation of Oswald that is so impressive, but also how much sub-textual depth he adds to the already amazing film all on his own, even though his character isn't the primary focus of the film in many scenes at all, more of a background character for the most part. The ambiguity of Oswald's part in the assassination and his unpredictable nature which Oldman also nailed to a frightening degree.
If I couldn't commend Gary's performance enough, he's in the middle of an ensemble cast full of recognized North American actors younger and older, particularly Costner, Pesci, Jones, Sutherland etc (all of those guys were also worthy of being nominated for an Oscar)... and he ultimately outshines the lot of them. Should've been a stonewall Oscar nomination, if not the award itself (not watched Palance so I can't say for sure!)
He was awesome actor in JFK.
Consider this: If Lee Harvey Oswald was positioned the way they said he was in the book depository, then why didn't he shoot Kennedy when the Presidential limousine was coming straight at him? He waited until the car made the turn and was driving away from him? The first shot missed the car entirely, hit the curb in front of the underpass and a fragment of the bullet hit James Tague in the face. Now imagine you're Oswald for a moment and you realize you missed the first shot. The shot you had in your sights the longest. What would that do to your pulse rate, which was probably already very high. What about your nerves? No. You miss the first shot under those circumstances, you wouldn't be able to hit the broad side of a barn afterwards....
To me, by shooting from this angle he would have other people in the car between him and Kennedy. It's dangerous, not the best at least. That's also why I doubt about the "back and to the left" thing. In fact when you watch the video in slow motion, his head bends down/front for a split second. Then, the head comes back to the left. + you can see that the front of his head is exploding, the entry point must be on the back of his head. Which is really strange to me, considering the "autospy pictures" of JFK, with a perfect face. ruclips.net/video/9T_dnO7dxLs/видео.html
(Anyway, it's painful to see when you think of Jackie and what she had to see/experience...)
Ha! Very true - BUT! - PUNK LBJ WAS DUCKING IN HIS CAR BEFORE THE TURN THOUGH!!!!
Watch Stone's latest film, a documentary called JFK Revisited. It's not distributed in the US, only in Europe. It proves beyond a doubt that there were at least two shooters for there is rock hard evidence that JFK was hit by a bullet in the throat. It reached him from the front. NOT the back. And Oswald was shooting at JFK's back. The Warren Commission went out of their way to hide the fact that there were at least two shooters for two shooters mean a conspiracy. And if there's one term they tried to suppress, it was just that. Conspiracy.
Wierd thinking! Gunshot from the front two bullet holes in the front wind shield made him back to the left.
the limo maitained and clean immediately and rushed to Michigan the next day for fixing and replacement to delete evidences that was severe violation of the universal law. But the us government is beyond any law in the world,esp., when leading by lbj.
Gary Oldman is a Great Actor!
Gary was right initially when he said Oswald couldn't have done it which is true. That movie was 95% historically accurate. I know because I've studied the assassination for the last 6 years.
Study why oswald brought curtain rods to work with frazier....oswald had now use for curtain rods as he lived in a rooming house....sooooo...what was the package if not curtain rods?
No he was wrong initially and if you believe that film was 95 % historically correct you need your brain cells analyzed.
@@herbpetrillo163 can I answer it was the rifle.
Randy Harris Lmao you’re doing their work for them
Let me get this straight you know JFK was 95 percent correct because you studied this case for the last 6 years.My question what in the hell have you been studying?
Gary Oldman does a good portrayal of Lee Harvey Oswald in "JFK." (1991.)
GOOD !!!!!!!!!???????
He WAS Oswald.
I'm sure he only said he "believes" the lone gunman thing because he thinks he has to... probably doesn't want to risk his reputation. Anyone who watched the movie, let alone _acted_ in it, cannot possibly believe one person shot three bullets in the span of 6 seconds with a bolt-action, one bullet of which caused seven different wounds. Give me a break.
Same. If you haven't already, look up Judyth Vary Baker. Read her book.
It been proven to have been done
@@LeighMet what’s been proven?
@@liamrees1106 that it was a lone gunman
IMO I think Gary is referring to the Discovery Channels “Unsolved History” documentaries. They did test whether Oswald’s magic bullet and flight down the stairs in the amount of time was possible and while they concluded both could have been done, I think the heart of the conspiracy lies in Oswald’s movement before the assassinations.
Went to dealy plaza and TSB depository yesterday. Gee, the sixth floor is pretty high. All bullets should have had an extreme angle downwards.
Possibly the best actor in the world an absolute genius
Gary… Gary Gary Gary… it tears me in half to hear you’ve changed your position on Oswald being the lone gunman
You know you've found a rare and special performer when they can make an understated and minor role one that can silently steal a movie.
Stone really collected an incredible ensemble in this film. And the cinematography ... truly spectacular.
Saw this film as a teenager and nearly 20 years later it remains one of my top 10 of the thousands of films I've seen. Even if one disagrees the films stance it can't be said the film isn't a cinematic triumph.
Truth Seeker it's fantasy.
Good point. That what I have always thought: if Oswald was the lonely shooter, why locking away all the files for so many years?
I believe Jim Garrison: who else was involved? Are there some powerful lobbists who were involved at that time? In JFK to 9/11, Everything is a Rich Man's Trick, some George Bush seemed to be present that day at the school book depository... What was he doing there?
Love, from Italy 💚❤️🇮🇹
That's been explained a million times but you guys keep asking the same old questions.
@@randyharris3175 I dare you to watch the documentary "The Men who killed Kennedy"?
@@cruisersism Already seen it the Corsican killers were proven to be fake.
George HW Bush was in Marshal, TX that day but he was in Dallas the night before at a party. In interviews he has said he doesn't recall where he was. No American alive at that time doesn't know exactly where he was when the news broke. George HW Bush deep CIA and later director CIA. Oswald defected to the USSR and renounced his citizenship. He was allowed to come back, regain his citizenship during the height of the Cold War and not tracked by the FBI. How does that happen? Oswald was a 'patsy' to distract from the real gunmen on the grassy knoll and several other locations.
@@randyharris3175 Except video of his coffin taken off the plane in DC was a different coffin than the one put on the plane in Dallas. The autopsy was performed by a doctor who had never done an autopsy before and the x-rays are 'doctored'. His preserved brain, which could show bullet trajectory, disappeared. "Nothing to see here, move along, citizen".
He looks exactly like Lee Harvey Oswald.
Maybe not 100% but he nailed his facial expressions and ticks as well as his vocal inflections.
Gary oldman is a superb actor
As a kid watching this I honestly thought they were using actual footage of Oswald. I didn't distinguish between the two. It was an unreal feeling.
I was nine when this happened and have long hoped for the whole truth to emerge. I now know this will never happen.
Interesting how at the time he thought Oswald could not have done it but was convinced otherwise by a documentary. He's entitled to his opinion though ... I do agree with what he said when if Oswald did do it why not release the declassified documents?
what documentary is he referencing?
He has to say that. He still wants work.
I love it when an actor becomes the character. First of all you really do need the resemblance factor or it flies out the window. I've seen a few of these types of films and if you have to say... "okay, who's that talking right now? Who? Bobby Kennedy? It doesn't even resemble him!" That's when I lose interest. I believe that a really good casting person goes a long way.
He did such an amazing job as Oswald
My God Oldman's likeness to Oswald is incredible they looked the spitting image of each other!
Ok, who threatened Gary?
INDEED!
Gary is amazing in everything he does. Really enjoy all of his work.
Bang_________Bang,Bang (bolt action doesn’t
work that way).
Zapruder film clearly demonstrates several seconds between each of the shots.
Gary drinks the Government grape 🍇 koolaid....no professional assassin puts his rifle out a window...they shoot from cover.
Oswald wasn't a professional assassin obviously
you are never ever going to convince me that oswald did this all by himself just no way!
Why not?
@@aaronz7056 Because it takes more than one person to commit a coup `de tat!
@@barbaracabello587 No, I mean what evidence rules out Oswald doing this and doing it himself?
Gary is one of the best living actors. And probably one of the greatest of all time.
But I strongly disagree that Oswald really was the lone gunman. Stones theories are off as well. Look up James Earl Files. His story is probably the most accurate
I dont buy Files story. He says he used a modified fireball and watch JFKs head explore though the sight. A modified fireball gives a massive kick theres no way he could have seen it the way he claims. The name I'm more interested in is Mac Wallace if you dont know about him look it up its mind blowing who hes linked to and what hes done and got away with.
@@TheSmokingGunmen . . .Now, you're getting somewhere! ! !
Gary have always thought you to be & continue to regard you as one of the finest actors of your generation. As for Lee Harvey Oswald's involvment in the Kennedy assassination leave that to the experts. LHO was as he said he was, a Patsy.
Bother watching the whole clip and Oswald only says he's a patsy in relation to being hassled by the cops for having lived in Russia, not because he thinks some coup is setting him up as the assassin of the President.
Gary should totally go on Joe Rogan. Just to share his thoughts. & Theories on the JFK assignation😮
Oliver Stone's latest documentary on the subject, JFK Revisited is well worth the watch
Also: the feature film was one hell of a picture. Almost perfect
Indeed! Incredible film. Just rewatched it earlier today. Just gets better and better every time I see it.
He tells over 80 demonstrable lies in the first movie so now we're supposed to grant him boundless credibility with the second....?
@@aaronz7056 Any time anyone states there are lies in Stone’s movie they never once include detail on any of the lies. The holes in the official narrative are plentiful and the evidence matches Stone’s version of events far more than the Warren Commission’s. Allen Dulles oversaw the Warren Commission. The man fired by Kennedy as head of the CIA. But no conflict of interest there right?
@@LeeH688 You want details? Okay:
Stone: 3 fake hobos fake arrested, disappear
Truth: the 3 men (Gedney, Doyle, Abrams) were ID'd, cleared and released and released with no evidence against them, their arrest records existing to this day, and investigators and TV shows even interviewed them years later
Stone: Mayor Cabell changes parade route to assist assassins
Truth: parade route was never changed and you can't drift between lanes in Dealey Plaza
Stone: conspirator has fake seizure in plaza, disappears
Truth: Jerry Belknap went to Parkland Hospital after recovering from real seizure
Stone: police invade theater to arrest man for not paying admission
Truth: the man was a good match for the suspect just seen killing a cop nearby
Stone: mean cops rough up helpless Oswald in theater
Truth: Oswald tried to shoot the first cop to approach him and fought so violently 3 officers were injured just disarming him
[Those officers risked their lives to capture their suspect alive as per their duty, but by now you can see Stone doesn't give a damn how many innocent people he portrays as conspirators in murder and treason so long as it suits him....]
Stone: big cloud of smoke on knoll
Truth: Stone couldn't find a gun that made that much smoke (unless he was saying the assassins used muskets), resorted to blowing smoke from bellows (seems appropriate)
Stone: 2 actors seated bolt upright, facing forward, demolish "gross lie" of single bullet theory
Truth: Connally was seated lower, inboard and turned sharply to his right, strengthening single bullet theory
Stone: bogus bullet planted at Parkland Hospital
Truth: bullet was matched to Oswald's rifle and hilariously Stone never explains how anybody could have known a bullet needed planting at all or that he wasn't simply planting one bullet too many into evidence and blowing the whole plot
Stone: Jackie pulls JFK down, allowing Connally to be shot
Truth: B.S.
Stone: D.C. phone system goes down after assassination
Truth: system was overloaded but most calls went through
Stone: open windows in plaza prove conspiracy
Truth: Kennedy was often filmed riding in open parades in other cities surrounded by open windows all over the place
Stone: 112th Military Intelligence Group ordered to "stand down"
Truth: flatly contradicted by Group's C.O.'s sworn HSCA testimony, Group provided extra men to assist Secret Service in Dallas
Stone: Lee Bowers murdered
Truth: Bowers' car crash came some 2 years after he had already testified and was investigated by the police, the HSCA and researcher David Perry, none of whom found any evidence of foul play
Stone: guilt-ridden David Ferrie starts cooperating with Jim Garrison, is murdered
Truth: Ferrie died of Berry aneurysm after failing health, always hotly denied any assassination knowledge, and was preparing to sue Garrison for harassment
Stone: 2 women on TSBD stairs never see Oswald fleeing from above
Truth: he came downstairs after they did and hilariously Stone never explains how the "real assassins" got away because they never saw them either
Stone: Officer Tippit shot by 2 killers
Truth: Clemon's words make it clear enough she saw at best a shooter and bystander, who was standing right where a homeowner who ran outside on hearing the shots would have been, and hilariously Stone never mentions other witnesses closer to Tippit than Clemons firmly said their was only one shooter
Stone: Kennedy's brain "stolen"
Truth: Bobby Kennedy had his brother's brain matter quietly taken care of after the investigation was concluded and its findings released
Stone: Jean Hill sees knoll shooter, is immediately seized, sequestered and menaced by sinister agent
Truth: Hill was saying no such things in the 1960's, or when she was interviewed on live TV the day of the assassination
Stone: everything pertaining to Beverly Oliver character
Truth: Oliver is a notorious grifter and demonstrable liar who could not have been the Babushka Lady
Stone: 3 shots over 5.6 seconds
Truth: 3 shots over 8-9 seconds
Stone: limo full of bullet holes
Truth: only damage to limo was a crack caused by a bullet fragment to the windshield and chrome plating interior, both in National Archives
Stone: Garrison makes stirring speech to jury
Truth: never happened
Stone: Justice Department "does nothing" with regard to HSCA's conclusion of "probable conspiracy"
Truth: JD had Ramsey Panel investigate evidence used to lead HSCA to that conclusion, the dictabelt recording, and found it to be erroneous and invalid as evidence, firmly debunking it over 40 years ago
Stone: Garrison advised by mysterious "Mr. X"
Truth: Mr. X never existed, was based on notorious fruitcake Fletcher Prouty, who solemnly lectured flying saucers are real
Stone: Garrison makes convincing case for conspiracy
Truth: Garrison's case hinged on a star witness so unreliable he never appears in the movie, it fell apart within minutes of reaching his hand-picked jury, and he was soundly condemned by the ABA for his despicable and unprofessional conduct....
Not worth nothing so many fallacies.
I believe every minute of this movie. The US Government could for sure do this back then. Also, if they could make this happen back then just think what they’re capable to do now.
I have same question he does. If he was the lone gunman. why can't we see all the files?
because the redacted parts are the IDs of people who are still alive
@@prpwnage9296 . . . how convenient . . .
Gary, you were right with your first gut feeling. Nothing should have changed your real world experience of actually trying to hit the moving target out that window. Experience is knowledge.
Gary Goldman is a great actor. Oliver Stone created a Hollywood movie where he wants you to think that everything in the film happened exactly the way you see it in history. Stone was able to convince only the gullible.
Go away, sheep.
Yes, but Gary: back, and to the left.
Direction a person's head goes after being shot is meaningless regarding what direction the bullet came from.
No bullets were ever found that did not match to Oswald' rifle.
Somebody assumed they would frame this on a lone shooter from behind while firing from multiple directions?
@@aaronz7056 You absolutely, positively do not know what you're talking about. Give it up!
@@barbaracabello587 Would you care to actually argue how my points above are wrong or are you just going to make a cynical and condescending zinger like that settles the matter?
Seen the movie lots. Love Oldman. Never realised it was him until now!
Oldman’s version way better than 11.22.63 despite limited screen time
Anyone know what documentary Oldman watched that led him to the conclusion that Oswald was the lone gunman?
Best actor.
Not even close
As great a performance Gary gave, he's wrong. Oswald killed no one. That movie is the only one about the assassination that's historically accurate. Not 100% accurate obviously, but very close. Been studying the assassination for almost 8 years.
Papers released today Dec 2021, that Oswald met with an KGB Agent 2 weeks prior to the assassination.
And it came out last year 2020, that Shaw was indeed CIA.
@@balung Yes I know
Rubbish, movie is packed with scores of lies.
@@aaronz7056 Back to sleeple, sheeple . . .
I miss good movies. Super Heroes can be over anytime now
One of his best performances
Great actor. Does anyone have a clue which documentary Oldman refers to?
C'mon Gary. Oswald didn't even fire a shot that day. You have to know this.
In that case we look forward to you explaining how the people framing him knew:
- Oswald would show up at the Paine house Nov. 21, otherwise they can't pretend he smuggled the rifle
- Oswald wouldn't simply stand out on the sidewalk during the parade
- nobody would ever find any bullets or fragments that don't match to his gun
- Oswald would immediately flee the plaza and go specifically to Oak Cliff
- Officer Tippit wouldn't simply outdraw and capture his attacker
- Oswald would agree to help frame himself getting caught red-handed trying to shoot a second cop minutes later
- Oswald would lie to police and refuse to cooperate
- Oswald would act so smug in jail he'd convince his own brother he was guilty
- Oswald, asked point blank on live TV if he shot Kennedy, wouldn't make the slightest attempt to blurt out anything about any conspiracy and would instead just shrug a hollow, rambling reply that all but dodges the question....
Comme dit Big Famous Gary : "Si Oswald, est le seul tueur… Alors pourquoi bloquer des documents, des décades durant ?" ;-)
The secret files show incompetency of the government. None of the released files have shown anything.
Everyone on this movie was great
Gary oldman finelly won an Oscar! Dude Leonardo DiCaprio and Gary oldman and Shia LaBeouf in the same film!
Oldman was very good as Oswald, but...he was G R E A T as Drexl...
An excellent movie, but after seeing footage of the real Jim Garrison, I wonder if John Lithgow should have played the role. Costner was great, but Garrison is taller than Costner and so is Lithgow.
Lithgow isn’t bankable like Costner
Crazy that he did not get an Oscar nomination for this!
Just some of the lies Oliver Stone tells in his movie:
Stone: Oswald lousy shot
Truth: Marine Oswald scored 18 out of 20 in rapid fire at targets 200 yards away
Stone: conspirator has fake seizure in plaza, disappears
Truth: Jerry Belknap went to Parkwood Hospital after recovering from real seizure
Stone: Mayor Cabell changes parade route to assist assassins
Truth: parade route was never changed
Stone: cops invade Texas Theater to arrest man for not paying admission
Truth: the man (Oswald) was a good match for the suspect just seen killing a cop nearby
Stone: mean cops rough up Oswald in theater
Truth: Oswald tried to shoot the first cop to approach him and fought so violently 3 officers were injured just disarming him
[Those officers risked their lives to capture their suspect alive as per their duty, but as you can see Stone doesn't care who he accuses so long as it suits him...]
Stone: 2 actors seated bolt upright, facing forward, demolish Single Bullet Theory
Truth: Connally was seated lower, inboard and turned sharply to his right, strengthening single bullet theory
Stone: bullet planted at Parkland Hospital
Truth: bullet was matched to Oswald's rifle and Stone never explains how anybody planting a bullet within one hour of the shooting could possibly have known a bullet needed planting at all or that he wasn't simply planting one bullet too many into evidence and blowing the whole plot
Stone: Jean Hill sees knoll shooter, is menaced by agents
Truth: Hill was saying no such things in the 1960's, or on live TV the day of the shooting
Stone: everything pertaining to Beverly Oliver character
Truth: Oliver is a demonstrable liar, fraud and grifter who could not have been the "Babushka Lady"
Stone: Jim Garrison advised by mysterious Mr. X
Truth: Mr. X never existed, was based on notorious crackpot Fletcher Prouty
Stone: Lee Bowers rubbed out
Truth: Bowers' car crash came long after he had already testified, was investigated by police, HSCA, and researcher David Perry, who found no signs of foul play
Stone: guilt-ridden David Ferrie starts cooperating with Garrison, is murdered
Truth: Ferrie died of Berry aneurysm after failing health, always hotly denied any assassination knowledge, and was preparing to sue Garrison for harassment
Stone: D.C. phone system goes down after assassination
Truth: system was overloaded but most calls went through
Stone: 112th Military Intelligence Group ordered to "stand down"
Truth: never happened, Group provided extra men to assist Secret Service in Dallas
Stone: limo full of bullet holes
Truth: only damage was to the windshield and chrome plating from bullet fragment, both still in the National Archives
Stone: 3 fake hobos fake arrested, disappear
Truth: hobos were ID'd, cleared and released with no evidence against them, their arrest records existing to this day
Stone: Zapruder film establishes 3 shots in 5.6 seconds
Truth: real time is 8-9 seconds
Stone: Garrison makes stirring speech to jury
Truth: never happened
Stone: Garrison makes compelling case for conspiracy
Truth: Garrison's "case" hinged on a star witness so unreliable he never appears in the film, it fell apart within minutes of reaching his hand-picked jury, and his conduct got him soundly condemned by the ABA....
. . . and the bleat goes on . . .
There is no way Oswald shot JFK. No way.
He owned the rifle.
He smuggled the rifle.
His print was on the rifle.
His prints were on the sniper nest boxes in exactly the places they would have been had he been firing from it.
No bullets or fragments were ever found that did not match to his gun.
A man was seen in the window who could plausibly have been Oswald.
Witnesses under the window said the shots all came from overhead.
He was the only employee inside the building during the assassination to immediately flee the plaza.
He lied to police and refused to cooperate.
He acted so smug in jail he even convinced his own brother he was guilty.
Asked on live TV if he shot Kennedy, he just shrugs a hollow, rambling reply that all but dodges the question....
@@aaronz7056 - If you say so!!!! That's a very cool story, bro...
I mean, it's complete bullshit, but entertaining.
@@journeyintococo6996 Everything I've said is right there on record, but I know: for paranoid types like you, every last person with any involvement in this case is a dirty liar and part of the conspiracy and cover-up. Everybody's a liar... except Lee Harvey Oswald....
@@journeyintococo6996 Of course, we look forward to you explaining how the people framing Oswald knew:
- he would show up unexpectedly at the Paine house Nov. 21, otherwise they can't pretend he smuggled the gun from there the next morning
- he wouldn't simply stand out on the sidewalk during the parade
- nobody would ever find any bullets or fragments that don't match to his rifle
- he would immediately leave the plaza
- he would definitely go specifically to Oak Cliff
- an Oswald imposter who looks so much like him he will fool witnesses needs to be hanging around 10th and Patton
- a cop will be driving at 10th and Patton at exactly the right moment
- the cop won't simply outdraw and capture his attacker
- Oswald will obligingly help frame himself hiding in storefronts, ducking into theaters, trying to shoot other cops and fighting so violently 3 officers will be injured just disarming him
- the Dallas PD can be safely relied on to help in the murder of a brother officer with a wife and 3 children
- Oswald will not make the slightest attempt to blurt out anything about any conspiracy while addressing the entire world on live TV
- Oswald is guaranteed to just shrug a hollow, rambling reply when asked on live TV "Did you shoot the President?"
- they can safely approach scores of police, FBI, Secret Service, military personnel, doctors, witnesses, photographers, x-ray technicians, ballistics experts, journalists, staffs in embassies in another country, Oswald family members, shoe store clerks, senators, congressmen, lawyers, the D.A., the Chief Justice, whole and multiple commissions, etc. and persuade them all to obey illegal orders to commit crimes, bend over backwards helping an evil coup overthrow their own government, and make themselves all eternally loyal accessories to murder and treason...
Thanks in advance for persuasively and convincingly addressing and answering every one of those points and questions.
@@aaronz7056 - I look forward to you providing sources.
The Route they designed and the lack extra diligence appled to secure the short cut ... confuses me ... the stage was set ...
That was the standard parade route through downtown Dallas and a concrete divider in Dealey Plaza prevents you from drifting between Main and Elm to get to the onramp for the Stemmons Freeway to go to the Trade Mart. The route was never changed either.
@@aaronz7056 Incorrect
@@barbaracabello587 How the heck is that incorrect? LOL
Incredible performance
Certainly one of the most important films ever made and probably one of the best.
The documentary Gary Oldman is referring to is Oswald's Ghost. Here's a review of it by Jim DiEugenio, who had been studying the Kennedy assassination for decades and had even written a book on the Jim Garrison case, Destiny Betrayed.
kennedysandking.com/john-f-kennedy-reviews/oswald-s-ghost
One of the most fictitious films in history you should say.
@@randyharris3175 Yeah, you could say that . . . but then, you wouldn't know what you're talking about.
JIm is just as bad as Stone though his critique of Stone's film may be accurate he is just as bad and considered a phony by serious Kennedy researchers.
11.2 seconds from first shot too the third and final, fatal shot. 4.9 seconds from second shot too the third final, fatal shot on an easy too follow target going downhill and away in a car that the driver was slowing down! Then what does LHO do? He goes too his rooming house and gets his pistol and kills J.D. Tippet and then when he was cornered and being arrested LHO pulls his pistol and tries to shoot Officer McDonald! One shooter fired three shots from an elevated position behind his target! End of story!!!
Sorry Gary,. Anyone I spoke too with military experience of firearms dismisses the possibility of Oswald doin the shooting, even governor Connelly in the car knocks that on the head,
That's hilarious, since:
- no bullets or fragments were ever found that did not match to Oswald's rifle
- witnesses under the sixth floor window said the shots all came from overhead
- Connally's said the shots came from behind
- autopsy shows the shots came from behind
- 3 shots over 8-9 seconds (as victims' reactions in the Zapruder film clearly demonstrate) at a target a maximum of 88 yards away is child's play to a marksman who scored 18 out of 20 in rapid fire at targets 200 yards away in the Marines
- the shooting was successfully recreated with Oswald's gun by investigators
Apparently Gary is unfamiliar with the book "The Girl On the Stairs" by Barry Ernest.
Are these imaginary girls?
@@randyharris3175 Victoria Adams and Sandra Styles. Interviewed by the Warren Commission.
@@okc_facts okay they obviously did not go down at the same time everything is a estimation.
@@randyharris3175 you obviously dont know what you're talking about.
@@okc_facts well Oswald got down there after shooting Kennedy.
The shot came from in front from bridge.
That's right: somebody assumed they would frame this on a lone shooter from behind while standing in front of the limo (where exactly?) and shooting Kennedy in the face.
@@aaronz7056 THAT'S RIGHT! The devil's truly, always in the details, isn't it! So, once Plan A went south - - no problemo - - bring on Plan B (Triangulation of Fire) which unfortunately devolved into a messy cluster"F" but ultimately ensured the success of the "mission" (and unequivocally proved CONSPIRACY)!
Kennedy Assassination:
Retired Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock is likewise skeptical of Oswald's alleged shooting feat. Hathcock is a former senior instructor at the U. S. Marine Corps Sniper Instruction School at Quantico, Virginia. He has been described as the most famous American military sniper in history. In Vietnam he was credited with 93 confirmed kills. He now conducts police SWAT team sniper schools across the country. Craig Roberts asked Hathcock about the marksmanship feat attributed to Oswald by the Warren Commission. Hathcock answered that he did not believe Oswald could have done what the Commission said he did. Added Hathcock:
"Let me tell you what we did at Quantico. We reconstructed the whole thing: the angle, the range, the moving target, the time limit, the obstacles, everything. I don't know how many times we tried it, but we couldn't duplicate what the Warren Commission said Oswald did". (KILL ZONE, pp. 89-90).
Craig Roberts, sniper (USMC), 26-year police veteran, specialist in sniper and counter-sniper tactics, author of the book Kill Zone, which is a professional sniper’s perspective of the JFK assassination, which blows the lone nutter theory right out of the water. (Note: I consider Craig a personal friend and collaborator on the JFK case, and I strongly recommend careful study of his book.
Craig can be reached via email at craig@ionet.net, if memory serves.
Carlos “Gunny” Hathcock, sniper (USMC), the Marine Corps’ premier sniper with 93 confirmed kills including history’s longest single kill-shot of 2,500 meters, nominated for the Congressional Medal of Honor for action in Vietnam, former chief instructor of the USMC Sniper’s School, at Quantico, Virginia. (Note: Gunny Hathcock proved the impossibility of the lone-nutter scenario during tests he personally conducted at Quantico, and although he is now suffering from MS he is still more than happy to poke holes in the lone-nutter scenario. He can be reached through Craig Roberts.) (NOTE: Since the writing of this article, Gunny has gone on his final patrol. God keep you Gunny!
Victims' reactions in the Zapruder film clearly demonstrate 3 shots over 8-9 seconds with several shots between each.
A target at a maximum of 88 yards is hardly a superhuman feat.
The shooting was successfully recreated using Oswald's rifle.
Oswald scored 18 out of 20 in rapid fire at targets 200 yards away in his training.
So ruby stepped toward and assisted Oswald!
Oswald said he was a 'patsy'. They sure couldn't let him flesh that statement out in court.
. . .Thereby assisting the CIA and all other co -conspirators!
They got to Gary
If you want to understand how many doubles Oswald had and who they were and who shot JFK from the front go look up Cory Hughes.
The lady that was renting a room to Lee Oswald said on that Friday, Lee showed up at her residence (where Lee was living) and that she heard a car horn sound off while Lee was in his room getting something. When she looked outside, she seen a Dallas officer standing near a squad car. And before she knew it, Lee ran out of the house.
Now, if there had been a officer there, at Lee Oswald's residence, after the assassination. And the news was made known to the Dallas police force. Does anyone really believe if Oswald was guilty he would've ran out of his house with a cop right there?
The other part of that afternoon that is known is that the officer that was killed (that they claim Oswald as his killer) that officer went into a business across from the movie theater to use the phone. The same theater the Oswald was found in. The officer made a call, then hung up without saying a word. No one had answered his call.
Now, maybe that call was to inform someone that Oswald was at the theater? And the officer was later murdered to cover up his involvement in the whole incident.
All of it ads up to a lot more unanswered questions.
Story is bogus and highly suspect. This is paranoid rubbish.
Whoa what a brilliant actor
ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED ACTORS OF OUR CENTURY🎭🎞️🎥🎬. GARY IS A COMPLETE CHOOSING OF HIS OWN TERMS, METHODICAL 🎭 SO PURPOSEFULLY SO. HE PREFERENCES IT THAT WAY. IT IS AS THOUGH WE SAY THAT, "INSTEAD OF INGRID BERGMAN BEING HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW AT ONE TIME;
SHE WAS HIS MOTHER.😇😎🎤. HE IS SUPERB..........HE IS QUITE AN INTRIGUING
FELLOW. A COUP D' ETAT FROM START TO FINISH. FOR KENNEDY AND FOR OSWALD.
The best Dracula ever
AMAZING actor
The Gary Oldman performance of shooting the rifle made the lone gunman more plausible than any of the other information that I have seen.
Come on Gary, have some balls !!!!! For the love of God, grow a spine buddy !!!!!
No, he's gotten to!!!
Didn't like the film even though i love Gary's acting and loved all the John Williams music.
Alot of new evidence has sadly debunked the film.
Bring me everyone
What do you mean 'everyone'---?
EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
. . . saith the DEVIL! . . .
It's still to hot a topic to cover.
I tried to reveal who the man on the grassy knoll was,
and George Noory on Coast to Coast cut me off cold.
"...no way, how could anyone achieve this?" (referring to LHO's alleged world class accuracy) Right?
I agree it is possible Oswald could have been the lone gunman. But I’m convinced it was bigger than him.
There are a lot of comments here that say Oswald was the lone gunman. Some say there was a conspiracy. But what scares the crap out of me is, if Oswald really was the lone gunman, that means the government, FBI, Secret Service and CIA all got caught with their pants down.
Awesome 👏
It is spookiest performance by far
