This gives a good summary of JFK, Jr.'s life

However, I was frustrated that the footage of him speaking as an adult was always cut short. This meant that I never got a good feeling for what he sounded like or how he moved as an adult.

The people who were speaking about him were often annoying. They appeared to be trying to tell the viewer what the viewer's opinion of JFK, Jr. is as if the viewer would not be able to figure this out for him or her self.

This magnificent man is highly portrayed in this first rate biography. It will make you laugh, cry, but most of all, it will make your heart ache. This video will bring John to life everytime you envision it's beauty.

You will definitely need a box of tissues for this video. John Kennedy is exquisitely portrayed. Every John Kennedy follower must have this video

It is hard to believe that John has been gone. It is hard to believe that the little 3 year old saluting his father's corpse, is no longer with us, but with his mother and his father, where he belongs. Perhaps it was that image of John as the darling shy yet full of vivacity, that has stuck into the mind of every American. So perhaps that is why it hurts so bad when I realize that John is dead. It is the little boy we all associate with John, and we ache for that little one. Yes we realize that John was 38, almost 39 when he died...but he was still that little boy. Every woman cried on that day of discovering his body...yes he was very good-looking and charming...but they werent crying because a "hunk" is no longer here...they were crying because our little boy is no longer here. Biography does a lovely job at presenting the life and very tragic death of our beloved John. Although their are some errors (such as his romance with Madonna), this is well-presented...The poignant pictures and video-vignettes of John with his father are very touching. Perhaps it is because we know John had such a short time with his father that afford such bittersweetness and somberness, perhaps because it is us, that knows John will grow up without his father and that we know John himself will succomb to an early death just like his father...I do not know the answer, but what I do know is that if you have ever felt a connection to the Kennedy family, or to John himself, then you will want to have this video in our home library. Now it is time to get the tissues, as I still cant believe he is gone.
