Deadmen's Secrets:
Mysterious Death of Joseph Kennedy - VHS Video
He was a war hero whose future had unlimited potential. But a mysterious accident in the skies over Britain took his life. Film examines the many questions surrounding the death of Joseph Kennedy, Jr., interviewing experts and examining the hard facts in the case. Kennedy was piloting a U.S. Navy Liberator bomber on a top-secret mission to take out a Nazi rocket base when his plane exploded in mid-air. The official cover-up began almost immediately, but we know that the plane had been packed with explosives and the mission plan called for Kennedy and his co-pilot to bail out over Kent, from where the bomber would be flown to its target via remote control. Did something go wrong with the system and cause the premature detonation, or was there a more sinister reason for the explosion? The question only became more puzzling when an official report was released during JFK's presidency. Using computer simulations, archival footage, and in-depth analysis, video looks at the accident that started the tales of the "Kennedy curse." 50 minutes.
