JFK: The Zapruder Film

On November 22, 1963 Abraham Zapruder, a Dallas businessman, stood on a pedestal in Dallas Dealey Plaza with an 8mm camera and captured the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on film - the most famous home movie ever!  And, yet for more than a decade virtually no one outside government circles ever saw it. That  changed in 1978 when TV personality Geraldo Rivera and a film technician with a bootleg copy showed it on national TV. Reporter Richard Ray covers all the twists and turns of a story most Americans have never known.
