TLC’s two-hour film, “Letters to Jackie: Remembering President Kennedy,” enlisted 20 stars, each presenting one of 800,000 letters sent to the First Lady after the President was killed.
As we approach the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s death, the film uses the letters to revisit those months following the assassination and remember how his life and work affected people from different generations, regions, races, political leanings and religions.
