Joe's Revenge aka A Father's Great Expectations
2011-04-03
The Kennedys rally to put Jack in the White House, but their difficult past illuminates a deeper struggle.
“People talk about the curse that seems to echo down the generations of the Kennedys and in a certain sense it’s true,” says Tom Wilkinson. “And if you are going to see it in the kind of Greek tragedy sense, there isn’t a better sort of patriarchal figure than Joe Kennedy because his world view was extreme. His world view was: ambition, money and family. It’s almost medieval in its simplicity … but almost everything else went by the boards.”

When the Bay of Pigs invasion proves disastrous, JFK makes a difficult decision he must later atone for.
“John F. Kennedy changed the image of the United States when he was president. People around the world remember that time and remember the days when America was the leading shining light for freedom and democracy, which was represented so well by Kennedy at the time.”

My Brother's Keeper aka The Aftermath: A Family's Curse of Misfortune and Heartbreak
2011-04-10
Bobby blames himself for his brother’s death. Five years later, tragedy strikes again.
“I admire Robert Kennedy because of his courage to stand up during an extremely volatile and difficult time in America, knowing full well what might happen to him. RFK lived and died as a passionate advocate of peace, justice and equality and he believed in compassion toward fellow human beings, not only in the United States, but all over the world. I believe he would have made an extraordinary President. Now, more than ever, the world is in need of men like Robert Kennedy.”
