I wouldn’t call it a Kennedy tragedy; it was a Mary Jo Kopechne tragedy.

Bob Shrum, trashed the movie (likely without even seeing it) as “a disservice both to the victim and the truth.” (as those of us still pushing the Kennedy-hero-worship so desperately want you all to continue believing).....
To: Kipp
Mary Jo’s tragedy, the Kennedy’s travesty.

Absent the (D), JFK would be trashed by today’s communist Left.

The accident literally turns his life upside down. ...but in 1965, managed to turn American life upside down as well...

Chappaquiddick Island isn’t “off” Martha’s Vineyard——it IS Martha’s Vineyard and part of the town of Edgartown.

At the time, I already knew his brother had stolen the election from Nixon. This was my second lesson in DC corruption.

Kate Mara is typecast as a Washington intern who gets killed by an a hole (didn’t Kevin Spacey push her into a moving subway on House of Cards?)

Haven’t yet seen the movie, but major kudos if this review is accurate.

I actually want to see this. This was one of my true crime obsessions for some time. Sounds like they did this right.

No, it was a tragedy for Mary Jo. She’s the victim and the movie should have been made about her, not that alcoholic womanizer.

I haven’t seen it either, but the preview they have shown on FNC is quite good. (That’s the only channel I watch)

And it only took a 1/2 century! I’m anxiously waiting for the 2057 release of the movie about the Clintons.
To: Kaslin
One of the things that helped Kennedy escape scrutiny is because this incident occurred during the Apollo 11 lunar mission. Lots of people were focused on that historic event big time, giving the media a good excuse to soft peddle Chappaquiddick.
To: Kaslin
Howie Carr,a Boston talk host,columnist and genuine expert on the Kennedys says he's seen it and that it's excellent.I,personally,don't visit theaters but I'll surely borrow it from my library when it comes out on DVD.
