Wilkes, Jr. “It is difficult to understand why the [presidential limousine] came to a complete stop after the first shot. The natural inclination… would be to step on the gas and accelerate as quickly as possible. However, if the driver were under the impression that the shots were from the front, one could understand his hesitation in not wanting to drive closer to the sniper or snipers.”—Mark Lane “The most productive mindset you can have is simply this: always, always, always have a belief system that doesn’t resist change. Go wherever the information leads you, without fear, because surely the truth is never something to dread.” —Darryl Sloan The Zapruder Film Only one person filmed from start to finish the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, which occurred in a matter of seconds at 12:30 p.m. on Nov. 22, 1963 on Elm Street in Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas, TX.

    MEMORANDUM (DRAFT) January 22, 1996 TO: Jeremy Gunn CC: David Marwell FROM: Doug Horne SUBJECT: Issues for ARRB to Pursue with Kodak in Response to the Kodak Letter of January 7, 1997 1. Following review of Kodak’s letter to ARRB dated January 7, 1997, I recommend ARRB consider further pursuit of the following issues with Kodak: a. Highest Priority: (1) Roll of 120 Film from Autopsy: Digitally scan, and enhance to the greatest extent possible, the 3 extremely dark positive images (apparently post mortem autopsy photographs of President Kennedy) found on the roll of 120 Ektachrome color transparency film which is part of the Kennedy family deed-of-gift (i.e., the autopsy photograph collection); produce varied-exposure reproductions of the enhanced images in the most appropriate imaging format(s), preferably 8" X 10" in size. [Furthermore, ask Kodak whether Earl McDonald’s hypothesis--that this is simply a roll of Ektachrome E3 color transparency film which was exposed only to ambient room light (without properly synchronized flash illumination) when the shutter was opened to expose the three images in question, subsequently “flashed” (i.e., intentionally pulled out of the camera and exposed to ambient light), and developed normally--could be valid.] (2) Zapruder Film (Original): Digitally scan the original Zapruder film, analyze the image content, and record the digitized film image content on CD ROM for retention in the National Archives. [Types of analysis should include motion-related questions (such as whether or not the image content

  • A 3-D Lighting and Shadow Analysis of the JFK Zapruder Film (Frame 317)
    A 3-D Lighting and Shadow Analysis of the JFK Zapruder Film (Frame 317) Hany Farid Department of Computer Science 6211 Sudikoff Lab Dartmouth College Hanover NH 03755 603.646.2761 (tel) 603.646.1672 (fax) [email protected] Abstract Claims of a broader conspiracy behind U.S. President John F. Kennedy's assassination have persisted for the past nearly five decades. The Zapruder film is considered to be the most complete recording of JFK's assassination. Many have claimed that this 8mm film was manipulated to conceal evidence of a second shooter, which would invalidate the claim that a lone gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald, was responsible for JFK's assassination. Here we con- sider the viability of one specific claim of postproduction tampering in the Zapruder film. 1. Introduction United States President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd, 1963 while his procession was driving through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. Shortly afterwards, Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested and charged with the crime. Because he was killed before his trial, and the conclusions of the Warren Commission[1] have been challenged, many questions surrounding the assassination remained unanswered. Since this time, numerous theories have circulated suggesting that Oswald acted as part of a larger criminal con- spiracy involving a variety of government, international, or criminal groups. Abraham Zapruder captured the most complete documentation of the events of November 22nd with his Bell & Howell 8mm roll film camera. After Figure 1: Frame 317 of the Zapruder film (left), and a magnified view of JFK { the authenticity of the shadow on the back of JFK's head has been called into question.

His killing Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas at age 46 deeply shocked the American public. Many still feel the official account of the assassination, the Warren Commission Report of 1964, presented some questionable findings and selectively ignored some evidence. It concluded the assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, acted alone. Fifty years later, doubts persist over some key questions: JFK, first lady Jacqueline One shooter, Kennedy and Texas Gov.
