Bobby by Emilio Estevez

[loreta]

Yesterday I saw this little movie but very interesting one about the day that Robert Kennedy was assassinated. The story happens in the Hotel where Robert went to talk after he won the Primary elections in California for the Presidency. It is first of all the story of various characters that lived in the Hotel, so this part is fiction I imagine, but the movie goes around Kennedy and we see very often Robert in the movie, in fact this movie is a sort of homage to Bobby.

The last scene, when Robert is murdered, is very well done, frankly.

I look for this movie in the forum but did not see anything about it. Sorry if I missed something.

I saw this movie a little after its release & I thought it was really good. At the time (around 2008) I knew nothing of him & by the end, I became teary. Even then I could sort of understand how so many people took to him, & felt his death perhaps, more than his brother. I'll have to re-watch it provide better comments, but I do remember that focusing on numerous people was one of several of the movie's strong points, including direction & cast. A good movie to watch & re-watch.
