It's early June in 1968, and the California presidential primary elections are occupying the minds of many in the Golden State, with Robert F. Kennedy in a close race against Eugene McCarthy and Hubert Humphrey. The Kennedy campaign staff has set up camp at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, while the staff and guests become observers as the brother of fallen president John F. Kennedy sets out to pick up where his sibling left off. Twenty-two people become unwitting participants in a tragic and defining moment of the 1960s. This movie did an excellent job of immersing the viewer into that era of time. Actually seeing the footage of Bobby Kennedy intertwined into the story and hearing his speeches was a powerful tool for the overall theme of the movie. The subplots within this movie were done wonderfully and the cast successfully became a part of this movie in the 60's era. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Fine acting done by all.Read full review

I bought this movie as the Bobby Kennedy campaign in Indiana for our Primary in May of 1968 was the first campaign that I ever became involved in when I was ten years old. It seemed like the world came to a crashing end when he was killed in Los Angeles after he won the California and South Dakota Primaries on that day in June of 1968. This movie is an excellent documentary on what his campaign stood for.
very excellent movie! has a very great cast! will reccommend to friends!was presented really well from what I know of this families story.A young man my daughter went to school with was in this film.we tried to find him.but not sure we did.
Didn't thrill me too much. Actors seemed wooden, as if they all had roles they weren't crazy about playing.
