The Zapruder filming of JFK's death is lugubrious to say the least. Life Magazine shelled out $50,000 for the 486 frames of death only to pay $150,000 the next day. I don't know how many living Americans are aware of the existence of this unique footage? Fewer realize there were many people in attendance that dat with 8 mm movie cameras! This valuable and rare film is in an atmosphere to preserve it forever.
Zapruder was in the "right place at the wrong time." I feel bad for Mr. Zapruder.
