The Counter Coup has Begun

[Jim DiEugenio]

And boy is the Dark Syde not going to like it. And that is the understatement of the decade.

Great news! Is there a timeline for this?
Also, I have heard you refer to a Rob Reiner docu-series on the assassination on BOR. Do you know what's happening with that?

I recall your appearance on 'The Searchers' saying "Well, there goes my movie." (not saying Stone stole this from you--independently came to the same conclusion)

Looks like we'll get something even better. This is excellent news!

Very good new Jim Congratulations!

[Jim DiEugenio]

Thanks everyone.

Per the Rob Reiner mini series, the guy who was sponsoring it at Paramount was displaced.

So Rob is trying to get it going somewhere else right now. Hopefully this announcement will help him.

I hope I can get it on my tv. Or that someone posts it on youtube.
(We got rid of cable a few years ago) Excellent news. (Saw it yesterday on fb and shared.)
Congrats Jim.

[Jim DiEugenio]

Thanks to you all and I will be talking about this on BOR next week.

Congrats Jim.

With the weight that comes with Oliver Stone and the amazingly talented Robert Richardson -- in the industry their work is so well respected and a huge draw -- I can see this being on Netflix or Showtime. Something really big.

And having Jim DiEugenio the chief researcher behind it only synergizes and boosts the entire thing: it will be more the the sum of it's parts. Stone and Richardson produce magic ('Nixon' and 'JFK' had stellar cinematography) together and Jim's research is the most thorough on this subject. No kooky shit, no hoaxes, no bullcrap, he cuts straight to the facts and has a knack for laying things out, making complex and often byzantine subjects (the Sheridan/Aynesworth/Phelan and Claw Shaw Defense team's shenanigans against Garrison for example) very easy to understand.

This will be amazingly good and I can see it on a top-tier cable network or streaming service. Amazon Prime or Netflix easily.

Tune in---Jim's on today talking about the docuseries

Listening now.

Len is in great spirits on this episode.

When has there ever been a JFK Documentary with 11 Oscars involved.

Stone=3
Richardson=3
Williams=5

That is John Williams, who is letting us use his music from JFK.
