[originally published on Patreon Apr 5, 2022; Ellroy Boys is now defunct but Apocalypse Confidential is thriving]
Second entry into the Paranoiac Films series, and I'm joined by Blauer (@blauer_geist) of Ellroy Boys and Apocalypse Confidential to discuss the other JFK assassination film, Executive Action (1973). As always, we discuss some of the finer points of the film and weigh the pros and cons of the film on its own. Then we compare and contrast it to Oliver Stone's JFK.
We discuss the source material, the director, screenwriter, and actors involved, and then talk about Executive Actions, or whacks, as they're also known. Along the way we discuss how we both got into JFK conspiracy culture.
