A young couple lose their 8-year old son in a debatable accident, and the whole thing is actually only about their long difficult way to get over the trauma. The father Peter Brennan actually takes the accident hardest, and his wife finds herself having a difficult time with him, especially as he after drinking loses his job. Then he gets something else to think of as he becomes involved in the Kennedy murder, which becomes an obsession with him, as he thinks he has actually spotted the murderer. There are many Kennedy conspiracy films and books (innumerable), while the best one probably remains Oliver Stone's "JFK", which was followed decades later by a sequel, "JFK2" but not by Oliver Stone. This one adds little to the mystery, while the meaning with his getting mixed up in the conspiracy problem is that it serves him to get out of his trauma - it actually proves something of the therapy he needs. It is well acted and interesting all the way through, no risk of falling asleep, the human aspects and problems are interesting, although you find it irritating and unnecessary for him to constantly lose his temper, which doesn't help him at all - it never helps anyone. The end is satisfactory, and throughout the film you long for that scene that should have been reached so much earlier.
