1991 was not the first year that a film’s story revolved around a conspiracy theory of the JFK assassination. Executive Action was very obscure, and we were lucky to find it. It makes one wonder where the filmmakers got their information, since obviously Oliver Stone wasn’t the first to think there was more that met the eye to the assassination.
Congratulations to The Esteemed Edward G. Robinson, our most recent inductee into the Hall of Fame!
