And so it’s once more to the grassy knoll and the Zapruder film, as the two men walk us through a multimedia presentation designed to poke holes in the Warren Commission Report (the official 1964 postmortem) and propose an alternative explanation involving ruthless mob bosses arranging to have Dealey Plaza overrun with hit men. Mitchell and Ulrich are assisted by Anthony Churchill’s sophisticated media design, which incorporates a slew of archival documents and images.
