A new documentary premiering Tuesday night on the Paramount+ video streaming service ahead of the anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination reveals exciting new details about that fateful day in Dallas, Texas. We used ChatGPT to hear a bit about what's included in the movie in question.
JFK: What the Doctors Saw includes unpublished excerpts and the testimonies of seven doctors who were present in Parkland Hospital's emergency room and desperately tried to save the life of the then-president after he was shot on November 22, 1963.
One of the most interesting aspects of the film is its challenge to the conventional narrative surrounding the assassination of President Kennedy. According to the Warren Commission, assassin Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, firing two shots from the window of the Texas library. The first shot penetrated Kennedy's upper back and exited near his throat, while the second entered the right side of his head and exited through his forehead. According to the official report, the fatal shot came from behind, leaving Kennedy critically wounded.
However, the new film raises serious doubts about this version of events. The doctors in the film claim that one of the bullets penetrated Kennedy's throat – that is, in the opposite direction from Oswald's. This version challenges the conclusion of the commission of inquiry and raises the possibility of two armed men, with Oswald shooting from behind and another person shooting from the front.
The film's executive producer, Jacques Loat, reveals that doctors' interviews and research led her to believe in a government cover-up. "I have no doubt there was government coverage," she says. In a clip from the film, two of Parkland's doctors recalled the initial testimony of Dr. Malcolm Perry, the surgeon who treated JFK. Dr. Robert McClelland and Dr. Ronald Jones recount how Dr. Perry, in describing the wound in the throat, described it as an entrance wound. Dr. McClelland reveals a chilling moment after a press conference in which someone, possibly a Secret Service agent, warned Dr. Perry not to say it was an entry wound "if you know what's good for you."
The new film could open a Pandora's box when it comes to Kennedy's assassination. The American establishment has insisted for years that Oswald acted alone, and even the president's nephew, Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., who is now running for president as an independent, has been ridiculed for years for even considering alternative theories about the assassinations of his uncle and later father.
