Learning Outcomes assess JFK (1991) within its historical context evaluate the extent of JFK’s accuracy synthesize your views on JFK’s accuracy in an essay Overview Decades after its release, Oliver Stone’s JFK is still widely considered to be one of the most controversial Hollywood films ever made. The conspiracy theories contained in the film have been hotly debated, with some viewers insisting that Stone has provided a vital service to history, and others arguing that the film is pure fiction. You will be adding your own voice to this debate in an essay on JFK, based on a given prompt. Essay Prompt The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines “fiction” as “something invented by the imagination or feigned, specifically: an invented story” (2023). This suggests that fiction is a deliberately fabricated account of people, events, and places that are imaginary, and not rooted in actual history. Meanwhile, “nonfiction” is defined by the Merriam-Webster Dictionary as “writing or cinema that is about facts and real events” (2023). By the abovementioned definitions, should we consider JFK to be “fiction”? Or is it more proper to categorize it as “nonfiction”? Please select four specific scenes from the film that helped you arrive at your conclusion and discuss why those scenes convinced you that the film is either fiction or nonfiction. Give each scene roughly equal attention in your essay and explain why you found them meaningful in assessing the film’s accuracy.
