Reclaiming Parkland" details the failed attempt of Tom Hanks and Gary GoetzmanOCocofounder of the production company PlaytoneOCoto make Vincent BugliosiOCOs mammoth book about the Kennedy assassination, "Reclaiming History," into a miniseries. It exposes the questionable origins of "Reclaiming History" in a dubious mock trial for cable television, in which Bugliosi played the role of an attorney prosecuting Lee Harvey Oswald for murder, and how this formed the basis for the epic tome. Author James DiEugenio details the myriad problems with BugliosiOCOs book, and explores the cooperation of the mainstream press in concealing these many faults during the publicity campaign for the book and how this lack of scrutiny led Hanks and Goetzman to purchase the film rights. DiEugenio then shows how the film eventually adapted from that book, entitled "Parkland," does not even resemble "Reclaiming History," though the script for that film displays the same imbalance that "Reclaiming History" does.
"Reclaiming Parkland" also includes extended looks at the little-known aspects of the lives and careers of Bugliosi, Hanks, and GoetzmanOCoincluding BugliosiOCOs three attempts at political office and a review of the Tate-LaBianca murders in the light of todayOCOs knowledge of that case. DiEugenio also looks at the connections between Washington and Hollywood, as well as the CIA influence in the film colony today. "Reclaiming Parkland" is a truly unique book that delves into the Kennedy assassination, the New Hollywood, and the political influence on how films are made today.
