DVD Reviews of The Kennedy Mystique - Creating Camelot
DVD Review: Nice National Geographic Special on JFK
Summary: 4 Stars
First shown in 2003, this National Geographic special focused on how the press corps dealt with JFK's presidency and, with Stockard Channing's able narration, makes for some entertaining viewing. Ben Bradlee, White House photographer Cecil Stoughton (whom I have corresponded with) and Jacques Lowe set the scene very well. Worth having for those who want to revisit "Camelot."

Description of The Kennedy Mystique - Creating Camelot
The Kennedy Mystique: Creating Camelot examines the skill with which John F. Kennedy used the media to create and sustain an image of glamour. Under Kennedy, not only was there an official White House photographer (Cecil Stoughton), but Kennedy had his own personal photographer (Jacques Lowe) who captured most of the intimate photos that have defined Kennedy in retrospect. In interviews, Stoughton and journalists of the time like Ben Bradlee discuss how Kennedy deflected attention away from his health and womanizing, focusing the public on a young, vital president and his warm, loving family. As television began to take hold of the country, becoming its dominant medium, Kennedy's photogenic looks became a powerful political tool. "The Kennedy Mystique: Creating Camelot" doesn't push its analysis too deeply, but it does describe the beginning of an era in which image has become as important to politics as substance.
