Intrepid Reporter | |
Bobby / int_5f52cfcf | comment |
Intrepid Reporter: Lenka is a reporter who is obsessed with getting an interview with RFK, in spite of being told that, being Czechoslovakian and therefore from a Communist country, his campaign would not look good speaking to her. She's eventually allowed into a private conference for reporters... after RFK's speech, which he would not make it to, although she does get the scoop on his murder. | |

Dropped-in Speech Clip | |
Bobby / int_8d6ecc32 | comment |
Dropped-in Speech Clip: Used a couple of times, but it's used most powerfully when RFK is shot, with the resultant chaos overlaid by RFK's speech, "On the Mindless Menace of Violence". | |

Marriage of Convenience | |
Bobby / int_9b34ee31 | comment |
Marriage of Convenience: Diane marries William not because of love, but because she wants to save him from the battlefield, although they are hinted at to gain genuine feelings as the movie goes on. | |

All for Nothing | |
Bobby / int_aed65980 | comment |
All for Nothing: Teased but thankfully subverted. Diane marries William to keep him from being sent to a battlefield, only for him to be shot mere minutes after the ceremony as collateral damage during RFK's assassination. The subversion comes from how (like everyone else shot besides Kennedy himself) William survives. | |

Mushroom Samba | |
Bobby / int_f7d4f121 | comment |
Mushroom Samba: Jimmy and Cooper go through one when they accept acid from a drug dealer. Of note is seeing an average cupboard open into footage of events from 1968 whilst the two are under acid. | |
