About this event
Let's honor the life and legacy of President John F. Kennedy on the 62nd anniversary of his death: November 22, 1963.
We invite you to join us for a film screening of "Parkland", starring Zac Efron, Billy Bob Thornton, Paul Giamatti, Marcia Gay Harden, and Ron Livingston
The first portion of our two-part program (approximately 20 minutes) will be a brief overview of the film "Parkland", including its historical context, plot summary, things to look for, accuracy, etc.
The second portion of our two-part program will be a full screening of the "Parkland" film (95 minutes).
During the film we invite you to participate in a discussion of the film with your fellow participants via Zoom.
We'll also have additional John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy online programming - stay tuned for details.
Parkland is a 2013 American historical drama film that recounts the chaotic events that occurred following the 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy. The film was written and directed by Peter Landesman, and produced by Playtone's Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, Bill Paxton, and Exclusive Media's Nigel Sinclair and Matt Jackson. The film is based on Vincent Bugliosi's 2008 book Four Days in November: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
Parkland weaves together the perspectives of a handful of ordinary individuals suddenly thrust into extraordinary circumstances: the young doctors and nurses at Parkland Hospital; Dallas's chief of the Secret Service; a bystander who captured what became the most famous home movie in history; the FBI agents who were visited by Lee Harvey Oswald before the shooting; the brother of Oswald, left to deal with his shattered family; and JFK's security team, witnesses to both the president's death and Vice President Lyndon Johnson's succession to office.
