I had been in so many towns and cities in America with John Kennedy, but I was not with him in Dallas, Texas, on November 21, 1963.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm pretty sure that I was JFK in my past life.
Even though Jack Kennedy and I were about the same age and lived in the same neighborhood and attended the same elementary school, our paths seldom crossed during the years he lived in Brookline. I'm sure that in time, I would have gotten to know him better if he hadn't moved away.
I was very political when JFK ran.
People always ask me, 'Where were you when Kennedy was shot?' Well, I don't have an alibi.
Jack Kennedy was one year older than I was, and we attended the same neighborhood school.
When we started the show, 'Dallas' was known as the city where JFK was assassinated. By the end it was known as JR's home town.
In 1965, I was 11 and in my last year at Junior school. I was living with my mum and older sister in a rented flat in south London - my parents had separated when I was five and got divorced a couple of years later, which was unusual at the time. My dad was working abroad, and I hadn't seen him for several years.
Nearly all Americans felt they knew JFK intimately, his charm and wit regularly lighting up the television screen at home. This is why polls showed that millions of Americans took his assassination like a 'death in the family.'
I made four films on John F. Kennedy, filmed when he was running for office, in office, and after his death.
Kennedy was a lot of fun, always. He had something going on. But not Nixon.
