A two-part documentary reveals a dark side to the Camelot of John F. Kennedy’s presidency. Historians recall the friendship of Kennedy and Frank Sinatra, a 20th-century entertainment titan whose connections to Hollywood and the mob allegedly helped propel the charismatic politician to the White House. Their bond soured when Kennedy’s administration, including his brother and attorney general Bobby, began targeting the Chicago mob and severing ties with their associates. Was any of this linked to Kennedy’s assassination in 1963? As always, it’s a feeding frenzy for conspiracy theorists.
