JFK (1991)

FILM4, 11.55PM ★★★★

 Oliver Stone is in conspiracytheorist mode for this film about the murder of President John F Kennedy. Whatever you make of Stone’s theory that the assassination was an FBI plot, lawyer Jim Garrison’s (Kevin Costner) showdown moment when he demonstrates that JFK was killed by multiple bullets is jaw-dropping. Costner, fresh from the Oscars glory of Dances with Wolves, is a magnetic lead.
