Parkland
The Passion of Christ: American Edition. JFK’s death is treated with more reverence than any other event human in history. This is a liturgical film, much more religious than everything Mel Gibson has directed, except the religion is American Exceptionalism.
This is so patriotic, one of the producers’ logo is the American flag embedded in film.
Even the Cronkite broadcasts, a supposed “rational” voice is a bunch of religious references and secular prayers. Cronkite the mullah, talking off his muezzin.

This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
