JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass

JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass is a 2021 American-British[1] documentary film about the assassination of John F. Kennedy directed by Oliver Stone, based on the 1992 non-fiction book Destiny Betrayed: JFK, Cuba, and the Garrison Case by James DiEugenio and on newly declassified evidence about the case.[2][3] It premiered on July 12, 2021 in the Cannes Premiere section at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival.[4][3] Stone described it as "an important bookend to my 1991 film. It ties up many loose threads, and hopefully repudiates much of the ignorance around the case and the movie".[2]
