Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
This Italian documentary profile of John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert covers their lives up to their untimely assassinations. Stock footage of Viet Nam, Ku Klux Klan and Civil Rights marches are added, but nothing new is revealed in this feature. It is plagued by the Italian language dubbing of everyone except Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe, and Hitler. Surviving brother Edward (Ted) Kennedy is shown at the opening of the film delivering the burial elegy for his brother Robert. At that time, many thought he should be considering his own presidential aspirations.
