Four documentaries provide an up-close-and-personal look at JFK's presidency, from his presidential primary campaign through the period after his assassination.

Pioneering cinema verite–style filmmaking in America, these films by Life magazine correspondent Robert Drew and his team (which included notable future documentarians Richard Leacock, D. A. Pennebaker, and Albert Maysles) offer remarkable, behind-closed-doors intimacy and close-up footage of Kennedy as candidate and president. The four documentaries are Primary (1960), Adventures on the New Frontier (1961), Crisis (1963), and Faces of November (1964). Also includes riveting footage of Robert Kennedy, Hubert Humphrey, George Wallace, Lyndon Johnson, and others.
