On Trial Lee Harvey Oswald (1986) [VHSRip (DivX)]

On November 22, 1963 in Dallas, Texas, a motorcade in which the President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was a passenger was shot at, the President fatally wounded in the head. In today's camera-intensive age it seems incredible that the only visual record of this horrific event was an 8mm film shot by an amateur cameraman, Abraham Zapruder - now described as the most viewed and analysed 20 seconds of film in history.

The accused killer was himself gunned down, this time live on television, by a local nightclub owner, Jack Ruby, two days after the Presidential assassination.

In 1986, a London Weekend Television production team headed by Mark Redhead set about the mammoth task (one never attempted even by the mighty US networks) of conducting a television trial of the accused assassin of President John F. Kennedy - Lee Harvey Oswald... the trial Oswald never had.

Although many TV shows and documentaries had recreated or surmised the outcome of such a trial, none had ever used a real courtroom, real witnesses, a real judge and real lawyers.

"On Trial: Lee Harvey Oswald" does just that. There are no actors, no scripts. The legal teams of Vincent Bugliosi and Gerry Spence were hired. The defendant's chair (which ordinarily would have contained Oswald) is empty. As many surviving witnesses as the producers could muster appear on screen - many had never before previously so much as spoken to the media on the subject.

The result was an unprecedented coup for LWT and a rivetting television event spanning 21 hours in its original form. For overseas distribution (including Australia from which this VHS recording originates) this was pared down to 5 hours.

The jury does reach a conclusion. If you know it, PLEASE do not post any spoilers!
