Originally produced as a television miniseries based on the best-selling book by Nigel Hamilton, this nostalgic biopic records the first 30 years of a young John F. Kennedy (Patrick Dempsey) -- before the presidency came knocking. From Kennedy's affair with a beautiful journalist (Yolanda Jilot) who was believed to be a Nazi spy to his ongoing feud with his father (Terry Kinney), this drama captures the makings of a complex and controversial man.
A very interesting, good movie. I learned a lot. Patrick Dempsey is his usual "great".

Being an introvert, I find great calmness, healing, and a renewal of energy when I spend time getting lost in a movie. I also struggle with depression, so movies are a great therapy for me...besides the fact that I totally LOVE movies. On this blog, I give a description of the different movies I have seen and offer my opinion of them.
.
I am not a harsh movie critic...I watch to be entertained, not to tear a movie to shreds with criticism.
