When JBC is turned to his right, it appears to me in the Zfilm that JFK was within his vision. However, JBC testfied/remarked that he was unable to see JFK after the turn, and was in the process of turning back, when he was hit by a bullet while almost facing forward, that pushed him forward/down. So, if JBC had moved toward the center to be able to turn that far, as filmed, I would think JFK would have been in his range of vision. On the other hand, if not back towards the center area, it would not appear that JBC would have been able to turn that far right due to a lack of leg room. If I understood Mr Blenner's post, he is also concerned about the suddenness of JBC's turn to the right, which adds to the unlikeliness of the turn occurring as it appears in the Zfilm.As I'm sure everyone knows, any "for purpose" Zfilm alteration would be an effort to enhance the "lone gunman and single bullet theories". However, it could be said that there were some damaged frames that were replaced with adjoining frames to avoid the appearance of non-benign alteration. In any case, if it occurred, alteration was thought of as "changes to a motion picture", and possibly without consideration of frame by frame analysis. JMO.
