That old family curse


Chappaquiddick (2017)

Directed by John Curran this film based on real events stars Jason Clarke, Kate Mara and Ed Helms. That time Ted Kennedy got a girl killed and did not bother to tell anyone about it.

Questionable historical accuracy here as we look into the murky waters of a very strange event in the life of Ted Kennedy. Certainly the film captures something of the Kennedy family but to what extent it follows real events is open to some question. Well made but not especially original.

3/5
