John Reznikoff Speaks: The Kennedy-Monroe Papers


In the 1990s, John Reznikoff, president of University Archives, stumbled upon what he thought was the missing link: Official documents finally connecting Marilyn Monroe and President John F. Kennedy, confirming that there was in fact an illicit relationship between them. The documents were the property of Lex Cusack, and were worth millions. They would change history as we knew it. The problem was the documents were forged...fakes, exposed by ABC news.

For the first time, Reznikoff talks about this story as he is interviewed by Jake Halpern for This American Life.

2012

What i like about this movie, is the effects, the thrill and the action. Don't mind the story, the character depth cause you'll just end up having a headache. Just try focusing on the action and the abundant of special effects the movie brings. Although I hope they would have given much time to explain the Mayan Calendar which was mention in the movie. Watch this movie with friends and turn off for the meantime the movie critic in you, and just watch famous landmarks getting destroyed, hero outrunning mass destruction. Because if you decide to turn on that movie critic in you, the movie which runs almost 3 hours would be a torture. But if you turn it off just like I said earlier you wouldn't notice those long hours.

I really want to watch this movie on the big screen but, watching movies at theater now a days are expensive. So Im just gonna wait till i had my own copy or if this would be available to rent.

"2012" the latest disaster movie opened to $23.7 million at the US box office last week, putting it on pace for a $60 million weekend that would exceed pre-release projections, according to studio data.

Opening simultaneously in 58 territories, the film also made $36 million if foreign grosses Friday, putting it on track for a worldwide opening that could reach $170 million.

Finishing in second place, Disney's Robert Zemeckis 3D Charles Dickens adaptation of "A Christmas Carol" dropped 38 percent from its premiere a week prior with $5.5 million.

As for 2012, its an auspicious start for a $200 million apocalyptic themed film, which stars John Cusack, Amanda Peet and Woody Harrelson. A typically action packed Emmyrich delivery, it's an easily translatable movie that appears as if it's doing what film makers offering do best: play big abroad.
