00:19Friends, friends, we meet here today, not as Ghanaians,
00:30Guineans, Moroccans, Aegeans, Senegalese, or Malians, but as Africans, tired of being disrespected
00:42and abused by the corrupt and imperial powers of the past, the time has come to forge new
00:51alliances, those who understand the strategic importance of Africa and are willing to treat
00:59us as equals, not as subordinates, and not as slaves.
01:07This is our time.
01:11We must choose our own destiny, a socialist Africa for Africans.
01:44We've definitely seen better days, ma'am.
01:46We'll send in the foresters to the end of the season and fill it back.
01:49Yes.
01:50The old oak, she's still hanging on, just about.
01:53Oh, but she looks so old, ancient.
01:56Well, she will have to be felled in New Cross.
01:58What is she?
01:59Looks like it's set in for the day.
02:00Do you remember my grandson Daniel, ma'am?
02:03Yes, of course.
02:05Oh, is that his christening?
02:06That's right.
02:08We ought to head back, ma'am.
02:10Get rid of his brain.
02:11Right.
02:12Or go get a job lead.
02:14Change his package.
02:15What again?
02:18Can I help, ma'am?
02:19Oh.
02:24Oh.
02:25Oh.
02:26Oh.
02:27Oh.
02:27Oh.
02:28Oh.
02:29Oh.
02:29Oh.
02:31Oh.
02:36Oh.
02:37Oh.
02:49At the Elysee Palace, the ceremonial guard awaited Mr. Kennedy's arrival.
02:53It has pleased the French that he came to Paris before going to Vienna to meet Mr. Khrushchev.
02:58When is it, do you think, if one's committed to a life of honesty, that one must start calling oneself
03:04middle-aged?
03:06Oh, stop it. You're still a young girl.
03:10I caught sight of myself in a mirror today.
03:12I looked like an old woman.
03:14You haven't even finished having children yet.
03:18True.
03:19So, finish your family.
03:21Let the first one go to school.
03:23And then let's talk about being middle-aged.
03:25Well, that won't be middle-aged. That'll be ancient.
03:30Oh, no, no.
03:32Not again.
03:37Mummy, be careful.
03:38No, stop it. It's rented.
03:44No.
03:46Oh, no, yes, you've got it.
03:48Well done.
03:49This macaroni and cheese is heavenly.
03:54So, weekend's been heavenly.
03:57Sadly, I have to leave in the morning.
03:59Where's the floor?
04:02They're coming to dinner.
04:03In Kennedy's?
04:04After Vienna with Khrushchev, then Paris, they're coming to London.
04:08So, we're having an informal dinner at Buckingham Palace.
04:12She's so young.
04:13I always thought she was the same age as you.
04:15She is.
04:19Oh, no.
04:25Oh, no, no, look.
04:26There she is.
04:26She was talking about the charm and elegance of Mr. Kennedy's wife, Jackie.
04:30Jackie, in fact, often stole the picture.
04:34It's beautiful.
04:35It's beautiful.
04:36It's beautiful.
04:36It's charming.
04:38It's beautiful.
04:39It's beautiful.
04:39It's beautiful.
04:40It's beautiful.
04:40She is pretty, isn't she?
04:42Yes.
04:45Yes.
13:48President first.
13:48Oh, dear.
13:50Oh, for goodness sake.
13:51Mr. President.
13:54Mr. President.
13:56Your Grace.
13:57Did they not get the protocol sheet?
13:59Yes.
14:00He obviously didn't read it.
14:02Yes, well, shall we?
14:05Ah, Jackie.
14:08Where do you think she's going?
14:10Lord knows.
14:14Mrs. Kennedy.
14:16I feel like that went wrong in about 10,000 different ways.
14:20I've seen worse.
14:21But I'm not sure when.
14:25Let's drink.
14:27Please.
14:29Sorry, sir.
14:30Bloody shabbles.
14:31All right.
14:44My heart goes out to him.
14:47Where it is the behind closed doors in the air.
14:49Khrushchev humiliated.
14:51Ran through.
14:53Treated him like a little boy.
14:54It's no wonder the Cold War continues to be...
14:57It's two nations...
14:57Very good.
14:58It's a man.
14:59Come on.
15:00Two miles.
15:02I'm sorry.
15:07It's so terrible.
15:09We won't vote.
15:11We won't vote.
15:13I'm sorry.
15:19I'm sorry.
15:21I'm sorry.
15:22I'm sorry.
15:29Ah, so, how was she?
15:32Oh, terrific. She's divine.
15:36Is she?
15:37I'm frightfully clever.
15:39Yes.
15:41What are you doing?
15:42She wants a tour of the place.
15:44Does she? Well, then I'll do it.
15:46No, no, it's all right. She asked me.
15:47No, it's my house, so I'll do it.
15:56Mrs. Carey, you're mine.
15:59You okay there?
16:01I hope my wife isn't causing too much trouble.
16:06Did you know you're the luckiest man on earth?
16:12Yes.
16:17Although, people keep telling me the same thing.
16:25Where are they going?
16:27I have absolutely no idea.
16:32Now, this is the throne room.
16:34In the early years of Queen Victoria's reign,
16:37various balls and concerts were held here.
16:40But now, it's principally used for receptions and vestiges
16:43and taking over all wedding photographs.
16:52Shall we?
16:53Now, this is the picture gallery.
16:56This is my great-great-great-great-grandfather,
17:00George III,
17:01and he bought Buckingham House in 1761 for his wife,
17:05Queen Charlotte.
17:07Who's this?
17:09Ah, that's one of the pits.
17:11The younger.
17:13Known for something that's always rather endeared me to him.
17:17Crippling shyness.
17:19Apparently, he could barely look people in the eye.
17:23And yet, he became our prime minister.
17:26I quite understand.
17:28And I'm also a shy person by nature.
17:39This leads to our private apartments.
17:44It's a shortcut.
17:50This is about as private as it gets in this place.
17:54It's where one feels most comfortable.
17:56Oh, I quite understand.
17:59You have to have somewhere to escape to.
18:03I've often wondered how someone who hates attention
18:06as much as I do
18:07ended up in a goldfish bowl like the White House.
18:12But I realize there's actually a perverse logic
18:14to a cripplingly shy person ending up in this position.
18:18Well, you have to explain that one to me.
18:20Well, a shy person will seek out someone strong
18:23to protect them.
18:25Yes, I'm with you so far.
18:28And his strong character is often one who enjoys public life,
18:32thrives on it.
18:34And then before you know it,
18:36the very person you have turned to in order to protect you
18:40is the very reason you are exposed.
18:44Jack's idea of heaven is a crowd campaigning,
18:48fundraising, speech-making.
18:50That's when he comes alive.
18:52He'd far sooner speak to 10,000 people
18:55under the glare of spotlights
18:57than be alone with me.
19:07And what's your idea of heaven?
19:11I like my own company
19:13and to be alone in the countryside.
19:16And where do you go?
19:18A farm.
19:19Glenora, about an hour from Washington.
19:21Maryland.
19:23Virginia.
19:24Oh, yes.
19:31Hello, Stuart.
19:33They're eating.
19:34Yes, ma'am.
19:35Oh, goodness.
19:38Hello, puppies.
19:40What's your name?
19:41Well, that's sugar.
19:43These are our puppies.
19:45Come here.
19:46Come here.
19:47Whiskey and sherry.
19:49Hello.
19:51Oh, you're very clever to be cautious.
19:54Oh, it's really one of the great paradoxes
19:57of being in a position where I have to talk
19:59to a great many people.
20:01But deep down, I'm happiest with animals.
20:04That makes two of us.
20:08I always think my sister would have made,
20:11if not the better, the more natural first lady.
20:14Oh, mine too.
20:16A born queen.
20:19And the greatest of British queens,
20:21in her own mind, anyway.
20:30You know, I liked her very much.
20:32And I've been all set to loathe her.
20:34But in the end, I was utterly charmed.
20:38It's a timely reminder.
20:39Of what?
20:40Oh.
20:41That people are so rarely what they seem.
20:43Well, then I don't know what Patrick was talking about.
20:45Patrick?
20:46Plunkett.
20:47I saw him last night at Tartuffe.
20:48No, is that a restaurant?
20:49It's a play, dear.
20:51A very famous French play.
20:53Oh, I knew that.
20:54Did you?
20:54Yes, it's a classic tragedy.
20:56Farce.
20:57By Poisson.
20:58Moliere.
20:59Oh.
20:59Pierre Sereau was a painter.
21:04When was the last time you even went to the theatre?
21:06Or gallery?
21:08Even read a book?
21:10Oh, you're a savage.
21:11Oh, thank you.
21:13What about Patrick?
21:15Well, Patrick had dinner at the Radsevilles last week.
21:19Well, your new best friend, Mrs. Kennedy, was also a guest.
21:23He called me this morning to tell me some of the things you'd overheard her say at dinner.
21:27Oh, what did she say?
21:29I'd have to ask Patrick.
21:32Must say, it did seem a little unkind.
21:35I know how reported speech has twisted in the retailing.
21:39I'm quite sure it was nothing.
21:40Don't worry.
21:43Don't worry.
21:50General Solis!
21:53Reject!
21:55Up!
21:57Shoulder!
22:00Up!
22:02Order!
22:04Up!
22:05Up!
22:09Up!
22:12Patrick.
22:13Your Majesty.
22:15It's so kind of you to come.
22:20It's really not far.
22:21Are you still just round the corner at Wellington Barracks?
22:23I am.
22:24Are you still travelling up and down the country,
22:26recruiting for all the regiments from all the top schools?
22:29That's me.
22:33I gather,
22:35you saw the First Lady
22:38that did her recently.
22:39Who?
22:41Mrs. Kennedy.
22:43Margaret mentioned it.
22:44Yes.
22:48So how was that?
22:51Pleasant enough.
22:53Uneventful.
22:54You know how it is at the Ranservilles.
22:56No, I don't.
22:57Well, the food's always good.
22:59Yes, but I wasn't asking about the food.
23:04I'd like to know what was said.
23:08Patrick.
23:09Patrick.
23:09We grew up together.
23:10And we've always had a very frank and a very open relationship.
23:15Yes, ma'am.
23:15Yes.
23:16So, let's not break the habit of a lifetime.
23:22All right.
23:26What I ever heard the First Lady say,
23:30and I should mention I was several places along the table,
23:32it's possible that I misheard.
23:37was that she found Buckingham Palace second-rate,
23:42dilapidated and sad,
23:44like a neglected provincial hotel,
23:47and that one came away with a sense of a tired institution
23:54without a place in the modern world.
24:00I see.
24:10And did she have anything to say about me?
24:14Patrick.
24:14I was at the other end of the table.
24:18I...
24:23But the words I think I ever heard were...
24:29that in our head of state we had a middle-aged woman,
24:35so incurious,
24:38unintelligent,
24:39and unremarkable,
24:44that Britain's new reduced place in the world
24:47was not a surprise but an inevitability.
25:06Well...
25:09We must have her again soon.
25:28That's so okay.
25:28We just did a little bit.
25:28I got a little bit too.
25:33I got a little bit too.
25:34My good friend,
25:36I'm so glad that you are.
25:36I'm so glad that you are gonna have it.
25:36I don't know if you've gotten a call for the lead.
25:36I don't know if you're going to be the company.
25:37Well, first,
25:37I'm so glad.
25:38Is that great?
25:39That could be...
25:39so we're in the house now.
25:40Oh,
25:52Bad news, I'm afraid.
25:54Worse than bad.
25:55Regarding Nkrumah's Volta Dab project, President Kennedy's pulled out.
26:02Why?
26:03American involvement was conditional upon Ghana having severed all ties with the Russians.
26:07Turns out Nkrumah was in Moscow yesterday.
26:10To receive the order of Lenin, highest military honor, from Khrushchev himself.
26:16And what's the next step?
26:18I wish I knew. Wish I had an ace up my sleeve.
26:22The way President Kennedy had his First Lady in Paris.
26:39Why don't you send me?
26:44Where?
26:47To Ghana.
26:48On what would be seen as a personal trip.
26:50Absolutely not.
26:51That would be out of the question, ma'am.
26:53Why?
26:55A visit from the Crown to Ghana would be seen as a huge compliment.
26:57Too great a compliment.
26:58It would be singling out Ghana as a preferred nation.
27:02In doing so, we risk alienating Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Tengenica.
27:05But surely by singling out Ghana, that might be just the thing to keep Nkrumah away from the Russians and
27:09in the Commonwealth.
27:10Perhaps, but as Queen, you cannot be seen to be engaging in the dirty business of politics.
27:14Yes, but as head of the Commonwealth, can I not be permitted just once to defend it?
27:17Your Majesty.
27:20It would be unsafe.
27:22It would be provocative.
27:25It would be, in my view, a profound misjudgment to get on that plane.
27:47The trip is impossible to justify it from any angle.
27:51It is unethical, unconstitutional and indefensible that the Queen should be going at all.
27:57What would you have me do?
27:59Nothing?
28:00I certainly wouldn't have you get into a chess match with a wily operator like Nkrumah.
28:05You're just being cynical.
28:06And you're being naive.
28:09When you last met him, Nkrumah was just Nkrumah.
28:12Now he's the Lion of Africa, playing the Soviets off against the Americans.
28:16And you're a lamb the Lion will have for lunch.
28:20The best thing you can do is stay at home and be what you're supposed to be.
28:24A puppet.
28:25A constitutional monarch.
28:27A puppet.
28:28If you like.
28:29Well, that's the whole point.
28:32I don't like.
28:50Sir, she's here.
29:41I don't like it.
29:51Shall we move?
29:55Stop.
29:56Stop.
29:57One moment.
29:58Please, ma'am.
30:00Yes.
30:02Reporters.
30:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
30:07Hey, hey, hey.
30:10Nkrumah.
30:19Your Majesty, Ghana welcomes you humbly.
30:24Yes.
30:27We're very happy to be here.
30:29Of course.
30:32Back, back, back.
30:33Back, back, back.
30:37Ready.
30:47Well, you've given him the photo he wanted.
30:51That'll be on the front page of every African newspaper making every other African leader choke with jealousy.
30:56Yes, but it always does the trick.
30:58Yes, but it always does the trick.
31:08A dean here.
31:11Put him through.
31:12I have a secure line to Ghana.
31:14Yes, sir.
31:16But I thought he had agreed to suspend all contact with the Soviets.
31:20Apparently not.
31:21Ready, sir.
31:22Gentlemen, thank you.
31:33Out.
31:36Hello.
31:39Your Majesty.
31:41Prime Minister.
31:43I've just received confirmation that a team of international engineers has arrived in Ghana to begin work on Nkrumah's dam.
31:49Well, I see that's good news, isn't it?
31:54We encourage the Americans to go back to Nkrumah.
31:56Soviet engineers, ma'am.
31:58It appears Nkrumah's been playing us all off against one another.
32:02What?
32:03Leading us a merry dance.
32:04I'm afraid you've been used, ma'am.
32:07Just as we'd feel.
32:15Elizabeth, what's happened?
32:20In, sir.
32:21Martin.
32:24I wouldn't if I were you.
32:27Sir?
32:28She's asked to be alone.
32:32She said she's thinking.
32:51God.
32:52Amen.
33:20What's going on?
33:23What are you doing?
33:26Elizabeth?
33:37Yes, this is Colonel Charteris.
33:39We have Martin Charteris on the telephone.
33:41A situation is developing in Ghana.
33:44Hello?
34:17I think we both understand the significance of this moment.
34:23Yes, but do we understand the terms?
34:30They appear to be in some kind of negotiation.
34:33What kind of negotiation?
34:34Get her out of there.
34:37Your Majesty.
34:43Oh, Lord.
34:45What's going on?
34:51He's taken her hand.
35:12They're dancing.
35:16Our Queen is dancing, sir.
35:20With an African.
35:21What?
35:23Was this agreed?
35:24Was this agreed?
35:25This was definitely not agreed.
35:27What are they doing?
35:28What are they doing?
35:31Hard to say.
35:32I believe it's the Foxtrot.
35:35The Foxtrot, sir.
35:38Huh?
35:39Huh?
35:40Huh?
35:41Huh?
35:42Huh?
35:43Huh?
35:55Huh?
35:57Huh?
35:58Huh?
35:59Huh?
36:00Huh?
36:01Huh?
36:01Huh?
36:02Huh?
36:04Huh?
36:04Huh?
36:04Huh?
36:07Huh?
36:07Huh?
36:07Huh?
36:22Ladies and gentlemen, the man I am proud to call the 35th president of the United States,
36:28but even more proud to call my brother, John F. Kennedy.
36:46What is it to be an American today? Prosperous, powerful, privileged? Certainly. And yet, it
37:01is also troubling. I look around me and find our people divided as never before. Indeed
37:10is at no time since our civil war. There has been a change, a slippage in our moral and
37:18our intellectual strength. Blight has descended on our regulatory agencies, and a dry rot
37:25beginning in Washington is seeping into every corner of America. Too many of us have lost
37:31our way, our will, and our sense of historic purpose. It is time for a renewal, a new generation
37:42of leadership, healing leadership, but we cannot do it alone. And so I am asking each of you
37:50to be pioneers in this renewal, in this healing, in the reclaiming of great American values,
37:57freedom, tolerance, and equality of opportunity. Then we can claim our position and responsibilities
38:05as leaders of a truly free world. God bless you all, and God bless the United States of America.
38:13God bless you all, and God bless you all, and God bless you all. Thank you. Fantastic.
38:36God bless you all, and God bless you all, and God bless you all. Thank you!
39:04What's up, honey?
39:18I'm going to Glenora with the kids in the morning.
39:22It's not the weekend yet.
39:25It's Wednesday.
39:27It's weekend enough for me.
39:29Don't be like that.
39:32Don't you take away my dignity and then tell me how to be.
39:36I just wanted to thank you, that's all.
39:39For the second time in recent weeks, you've been instrumental in changing a significant matter of foreign policy.
39:47And an African state that was fast running into the arms of the communists has been turned around and kept
39:54in the West.
39:57What does that have to do with me?
40:00Dreary queen, thick ankles.
40:04Her majestic dullness.
40:07The incurious crown.
40:10Apparently just some of the things you said about her at a dinner in London, which then got back to
40:15Queen Elizabeth and it seems spurred her on.
40:19Without those insults, she wouldn't have defied her cabinet, risked her reputation and gone to Ghana against all advice to
40:26bring President Nkrumah back on side.
40:28But she did.
40:31Pulled off some incredible stunt with a dance and it's all thanks to you.
40:36They're ready for you.
40:37Yeah.
40:39Relax.
40:40It's not like you're running to her in Glenora.
40:43Not Glenora, no.
40:45But I am due back in London on my way back from India and Pakistan.
40:49And my advice would be don't go to Buckingham Palace.
40:55Sorry.
40:56The provincial hotel.
40:58It's not so easy.
40:59Her sister set up a lunch last time we were in town.
41:02Oh.
41:04That should be fun.
41:06Cat fight.
41:07I look forward to a full report.
41:11Come on, Bobby.
41:35Your Majesty, some more international reactions to the Ghana trip.
41:41Positive or negative?
41:44Overwhelmingly positive, no.
41:48Well, just a quick look, then.
41:55So, the New York Times calls it shrewd strategic manoeuvring.
42:03An example of impeccable political brinkmanship.
42:06The Australian papers are very impressed with your commitment to the Commonwealth.
42:10And the Illustrated London News call it an outstanding personal success.
42:16Floating doesn't suit you.
42:20The Garnet Press are calling you a socialist.
42:26Goodness.
42:28One more thing.
42:30First lady, Mrs. Kennedy.
42:35What about her?
42:38Her office is written requesting private audience with your majesty prior to lunch on the 28th of March.
42:44What ever for?
42:46They didn't say.
42:48Where's the lunch?
42:49Parkingham Palace, ma'am.
42:55Well, let's make the audience Windsor Castle.
43:01Sometimes only a fortress will do.
43:05Windsor Castle.
43:25Or go the right theассir.
43:26Quick middle!
43:26Please take me so much again.
43:28Lord, we decayed the oldSpeed favourites.
43:35Because you draw yourrites against police officers.
43:36Well, we did also do more.
43:43Headway to the Queen's Guard!
43:47Headway to the Queen's Guard!
43:49Head, head, head!
43:59Get off now, Mrs. McKay!
44:01Head, head!
44:03This way, please.
44:12This way, Mrs. Kennedy.
44:26Mrs. Kennedy, this way, please.
44:45Mrs. Kennedy, Your Majesty.
44:48Your Majesty.
44:51Thank you for seeing me.
44:55Mrs. Kennedy.
44:58Do sit down.
45:03Mrs. Kennedy.
45:11Shall we have tea?
45:13Mrs. Kennedy.
45:32I asked to speak to you in private ahead of our lunch on Friday, because I owe you an apology.
45:39Whatever for?
45:40I think we both know the answer to that question.
45:57Had a social occasion.
46:00Shortly after our last visit, I...
46:02I made some comments.
46:04Some foolish comments, which I believe got back to you.
46:09There really is no need for this.
46:13Reports that you'd said certain things did get back to me.
46:19And I'll confess to being momentarily surprised, since they in no way reflected what I understood to be the spirit
46:26of our meeting.
46:27But in this job, I've learned, as I'm sure you have to, not to take things too seriously.
46:33People say things for all sorts of reasons, which get misquoted or misunderstood.
46:38And before you know it, those words have turned into something quite different.
46:42And everyone's upset or up in arms.
46:46I'm quite sure that you meant no harm nor disrespect.
46:49After all, why would you?
46:52We barely know one another.
46:54Still, it was inexcusable, so I can't offer an excuse.
46:58But if you'll allow me, I'd like to offer an explanation.
47:05Yes, of course.
47:07Last time we were in London, Jack and I probably seemed, at least from the outside, to be riding on
47:13a high.
47:14Yes, I should say so.
47:16The most celebrated, most famous couple in the world.
47:19Well, the truth is that I was still suffering from postnatal problems after the birth of our son.
47:26And Jack had his own health issues.
47:29To say we were strained would be an understatement.
47:34So, when we got to Paris, I don't mind telling you, I took some pleasure in shining there.
47:41And then, at the Elysee Palace.
47:44I am the man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris.
47:51I enjoyed it.
47:53But Jack didn't appreciate being upstaged behind closed doors.
47:59I can imagine.
48:04There were other factors, too.
48:07Our doctor.
48:09Dr. Jacobson routinely administers us his cocktails before major trips.
48:17Vitamins.
48:21But other substances, too.
48:26To help pep us up or calm us down.
48:36On the occasion of that dinner, he had given me something.
48:39A little booster.
48:44I told him I needed cheering up.
48:47But I guess it loosened my tongue.
48:51And then I heard some of these terrible things cut back to you.
48:58I can't tell you how much distress it's caused me.
49:02The idea that I might have upset someone I admire so much.
49:08That's very kind of you to say.
49:10It's true.
49:12The way you do your job, the way you cope with the pressure, the personal sacrifices you've made.
49:21Not to mention your composure and dignity.
49:27As a woman, it's so inspiring.
49:31And what you just did in Ghana, was just extraordinary.
49:41What I should have said was that I didn't do very much in Ghana.
49:46I got on a plane, and I went.
49:50The only reason I went was because I felt utterly useless in comparison to you.
49:56And I was trying to compete.
49:59And if anything, I owe you a huge debt of gratitude.
50:06But I didn't.
50:09I just sat there.
50:12And I let her say her piece.
50:14And savoured your victory?
50:16Yes.
50:18And what do you want from me now?
50:21Ticking off?
50:22Well, don't you think I'm deserving of one?
50:24No.
50:26But she was so broken.
50:28And fragile.
50:30Lost.
50:33You did exactly the right thing.
50:37She insulted you, all of us.
50:40And you're not a saint.
50:41No.
50:42We know that already.
50:46There's ice in those veins when there needs to be.
50:49Yes.
50:52Well, if we cheers to that.
51:09We're going.
51:15Keep moving on.
51:17We have to keep going up the hill.
51:31Man.
51:32What is it?
51:33You're needed back to the house.
51:35Right.
51:41What's going on?
51:43I don't know, lad.
51:45Somebody help.
51:58There was absolute pandemonium around the scene.
52:01People screamed and lay down on the ground as shots were heard.
52:05Reporters saw President Kennedy lying flat on his face on the seat of his car.
52:10Men and women were screaming.
52:12He saw blood on the President's head.
52:14This is all we have here in Washington at this moment.
52:18And for the moment, I return you to Radio Newsreel in London.
52:21Hello, London.
52:22I just heard from Dallas that the President is still alive, but in critical condition.
52:28He was apparently shot in the head, and the Governor of Texas, Governor Connolly, was shot in the chest.
52:35Mrs. Kennedy was weeping, trying to hold up her husband's head when the reporters reached the car as it dashed
52:42toward the hospital.
52:44Vice President Lyndon Johnson was in the car behind the President.
52:48Blood transfusions are being given to President Kennedy.
52:51However, one of the two priests called into the room has administered the last sacrament of the church to President
52:59Kennedy.
53:01Mrs. Kennedy and Mrs. Connolly are stunned, but they are at the bedside of their husband.
53:17He's dead.
53:59Didn't you say how unhappy she was in the marriage?
54:07Mrs. Kennedy accompanied the fallen President.
54:11But that's the thing about unhappiness.
54:15All it takes is for something worse to come along.
54:20And you realize it was actually happiness after all.
54:32She's still wearing the same clothes.
54:36Couldn't it have found her something else?
54:40She's covered in her husband's blood.
54:42Loving his and loved ones joined the grieving Mrs. Kennedy for a proper...
54:47No, I think it's deliberate.
54:48...before the body was moved to the rotunda of the Capitol.
54:52The last day in the life of the first Capitol, President of the United States.
54:59Lyndon Johnson, sworn in on Air Force One less than 100 minutes after the official death of President Kennedy.
55:19Majest.
55:21Michael.
55:22I'd like everyone in the royal household
55:25to observe a full week of court mourning.
55:30and i would like the bell rung at westminster abbey
55:36ma'am custom dictates that the bell only be rung when a member of the royal family dies
55:44i know but i would like it to be rung every minute for an hour from 11 o'clock until
55:55midday
56:00yes ma'am
56:01in his prayer for god's help may we all find some light and hope in the darkness of the days
