Executive Action

Recommended Posts

This movie about the assassination is on Turner Classic Movies today (Thursday, 11/3) at 4:15 pm est.

Watch for the line where Burt Lancaster tells his co-conspirators that they will have one man "on the Grassy Knoll."

I just finished watching “Executive Action” for the first time in decades.  Thanks so much, Ron, for the heads-up that it was airing today.  For such an old movie, it sure got a lot of things right.

It’s kind of ironic that John Armstrong and I believe that the false Oswald depicted in “Executive Action” was really the American born as Lee Harvey Oswald while the man killed by Jack Ruby was the long-time false Oswald.  It's a complex story....  Thanks again!

I saw the movie in 1967, and did not understand some of the subtleties at the time. It does a good job of highlighting a number of points which point to conspiracy, but these could be missed by an audience with little knowledge of the history.
