JFK: The Smoking Gun

A significant portion of the American public, about seventy-five percent, remains skeptical of the official account of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. They suspect that his death was not the work of a solitary shooter but rather the result of a shadowy conspiracy. How is it possible that such a well-known crime, observed and scrutinized by countless individuals, still holds so many unanswered questions? This is the enigma that seasoned Australian detective Colin McLaren is determined to unravel. “JFK: The Smoking Gun” chronicles McLaren’s meticulous forensic investigation into this cold case, a process that spanned four years. The film revisits the fateful day in Dallas at Dealey Plaza where the assassination occurred, Parkland Hospital where Kennedy was declared dead, the Bethesda Naval Hospital where the autopsy took place, and the contentious findings of the Warren Commission that continue to spark debate.
