[size=12]I know it's a lot to hope for, but wouldn't it be great if this documentary was as accurate and hard-hitting as "JFK"?

"NEW YORK — Showtime says filmmaker Oliver Stone is producing a 10-part documentary series on what he calls the secret history of America.

The series will focus on events of the past 60 years that went underreported when they took place, but crucially shaped the nation's history.

Showtime says newly discovered information on the Kennedy administration, the Vietnam War and America's role in the world since the fall of communism will be explored.

Stone, the Academy Award-winning director of "Platoon" and "Born on the Fourth of July," will serve as executive producer and narrator for the series. It's set to debut next year on Showtime."

If true, and hard-hitting, he's gotten his 'nerve' back. He lost it after the attacks on him in reaction to JFK......well, we can hope....sure is a LOT of material he can use....more than for a ten part documentary....more like a 100 part one!
