The compelling one-hour documentary features archival photos of Kennedy's assassination and funeral, historic moments and interviews with major political and media figures, including Bob Schieffer, Ron Reagan Jr.., Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Ari Fleischer, James Carville, Julian Bond, Andrew Bell and Larry Sabato, among others.
