James E. Files
Robert Kiviat |
 | | Description: | Approaching the 50 year anniversary of the JFK assassination, from the Stateville Correctional Center in Joliet Illinois, confessed assassin James Earl Files tells the story of his role in the crime of the century. In 1989, Houston private investigator Joe West launched an independent investigation to find the true assassins of President John F. Kennedy. After three years of disappointments and dead-ends, West received a tip from an unexpected source: an FBI agent who asked to remain nameless. The tip led Joe West to the Stateville Correctional Center at Joliet, Illinois, and a prisoner by the name of James E. Files. Files, who was serving time for attempted murder of an Illinois police officer, was at first, very reluctant to talk. Slowly and meticulously West established a relationship with Files. Through months of personal visits and detailed correspondence, Files began to reveal his participation in the JFK assassination. Files was nearing a full confession when West became ill and suddenly passed away in 1993. It took 13 months after Joe's death, but on March 22, 1994, associates of West's videotaped an interview with Files. It was during this interview that Files first confessed to being the shooter on the infamous "grassy Knoll" located in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963 and that it was he who delivered the final, fatal shot to JFK's right temple. He also implicated organized crime members Charles Nicoletti, Johnny Roselli and Sam Giancana, who all had been murdered in the 1970's. For the next two frustrating years, attempts were made to bring the interview to the public. This finally led to an agreement for a nationwide TV program. As the program was being prepared for broadcast a consultant became involved. Based on his input the program was cancelled for reasons that have since been proven to be untrue. Also reputable JFK researchers have confirmed that the consultant was solidly connected to the Central Intelligence Agency."I Shot JFK: Shocking Truth" on DVD invites viewers into a documentary-style exploration of one of the most discussed events in modern American history: the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The film focuses on alleged first-person testimonies, investigative research, and archival material that aim to shed light on the conflicting narratives and unanswered questions surrounding that fateful day in Dallas. Expect a mixture of interviews, investigative commentary and visual reconstructions that concentrate on timelines, key witnesses and possible contradictions in official reports. The tone is serious and investigative, making this DVD particularly suited for viewers interested in political history, conspiracy discussions, and critical documentary filmmaking.
The DVD format provides easy access with classic menu navigation and the ability to revisit central chapters such as the background to the assassination, the immediate aftermath, and later re-investigations of the case. Depending on the edition, it may include supplementary segments like extended interview passages or analyses of declassified documents, though exact bonus features are not specified and can vary. As a physical medium, the DVD is suitable both for collectors of JFK-related material and for those who prefer offline viewing for study and discussion purposes.
BUDR, the manufacturer of this release, is positioned as a niche provider that focuses on bringing specialized, often debate-provoking titles to the home entertainment market. Their catalog typically includes documentary and non-mainstream productions that are not always widely available in standard retail channels, making them an interesting partner for enthusiasts of unusual or controversial topics. With "I Shot JFK: Shocking Truth," BUDR underlines its focus on content that encourages critical thinking and in-depth engagement with historical and political subjects.
The cast and creative contributors of "I Shot JFK: Shocking Truth" are presented primarily through their roles as interview partners, commentators and behind-the-camera experts. As there is no reliable public information that clearly links specific, well-known actors, directors or high-profile investigators to this exact production, no concrete biographies, filmographies or award lists can be stated without speculation. The film instead draws its weight from the overall pool of historical research on the JFK case and the general tradition of investigative documentaries that have helped shape public discourse on the assassination over the decades. | | | Producer: |
