Full title:

Searing Big Screen “Chappaquiddick” Thriller: Mary Jo Kopechne as First #MeToo Victim of Kennedy Family Money, Power and Corruption

Text of excerpt:

I think John Curran’s masterful “Chappaquiddick” was shown once in Toronto for a handful of critics and distributors. Byron Allen was very smart to pick it up for his new Entertainment Studios Motion Pictures company–it’s going to be a big hit. What he could never have predicted back in September that by now the movie would have a whole new layer of meaning: Mary Jo Kopechne, left to drown in the waters of Martha’s Vineyard in July 1969, was the first #MeToo victim. Her death, suggested here as caused by the late Senator Edward Kennedy, is the paradigm for everything being discussed today.

Good review. Looks like this may be a good one to go out to see, unless it becomes available on Netflix or Amazon Prime, or PPV. An 80" HD TV gives me so may options.

Mary Jo Kopechne as First #MeToo Victim of Kennedy Family

I doubt she was the first victim of the Kennedy Family.

That said, I'm highly surprised that the liberal entertainment industry is taking on this subject, since it involves a liberal icon.

They lobotomized Rosemary Kennedy in 1941.
Turned her into a drooling infant.

The Democrats will sacrifice anyone for the cause. This is all about 2018 and 2020!

Have any of the other young women who attended the infamous “reunion” ever spoken out? Did they all support the cover story? Or were they all buttoned up with non-disclosure agreements?

Hoping that teddy kennedy is burning in hell for killing Mary-Jo, and for turning this country into a third-world country.

Made her a better dem. I'm surprised they didn't try to run her for office.

The post-Obama left has moved beyond the old liberal whores who began and have carried out the destruction of the nation for the best part of a century.

Leftists like Ted Kennedy are not far enough left for today's ultra-left radicals.

Look at what just happened in Californis -

The democrat party refused to back Dianne Feinstein - one of California's most faithful leftist stalwarts for 40 years.

I was born July 9 1969
Kennedy fatso Ted should have gone to jail for this and NEVER been the “lion of the senate “
The death of Jack and Bobby is still incredibly sad
Those two actually had the right stuff and were wiped out by the powers of fedguv. Like it or not
MLK too
