Plot to Kill JFK: Rush to Judgment

Mark Lane (VI), Acquilla Clemons

Mpi Home Video, 1994

A must-have video!
Mark Lane's legacy is secure, despite three patchy books: his FILM "Rush To Judgment" is brilliant and a must-have for anyone interested in the JFK assassination. The number of primary witnesses on this film is impressive (i.e. Sam Holland), as is the length they speak ...

Three thumbs up
This is a very enjoyable and informative program on the rise and fall of Napoleon. I learned a great deal about the Emperor from watching this DVD, and found myself thoroughly entertained at the same time. The commentaries, paintings, and live action were interwoven ...
