About this movie

Jacqueline Kennedy was just 34 when her husband was elected President of the United States. Elegant, stylish, and inscrutable, she instantly became a global icon, one of the most famous women in the world, her taste in fashion, décor and the arts, widely admired. Then, on November 22, 1963, while on a campaign trip to Dallas, John F. Kennedy is assassinated – Jackie’s pink suit is showered in her husband’s blood. As she boards Air Force One back to Washington, Jackie’s world - including her faith - is completely shattered. Traumatised and reeling with grief, over the course of the next week she must confront the unimaginable: consoling their two young children, vacating the home she painstakingly restored, and planning her husband’s funeral. Jackie quickly realises that the next seven days will determine how history will define her husband’s legacy - and how she herself will be remembered. 2016 Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.

Ratings and reviews

Painful watch. We all know the story but this version just dragged on and on and on. Unfortunately even if there was any classy acting in the midst, that was long lost within the first ten minutes of the movie. Could have been mad better.

Bits missing from her story or what we were told about her. I gave it a 4 star because I kept watching

I don't even know why I gave it 2 stars. Pity?
