talk to me like that.

Where are you going?

I'm going to check

on my wife and daughter,

and when I come back,

I want you gone.

Lee, you finally came

back home to me,

don't let that woman

take you away from me again.

You're it!

Oh, Mrs. Kennedy.

I'm sorry.

The pool is closed.

Closed?

Yes, closed, Mrs. Kennedy.

Oh, no!

I see.

You have a woman problem.

Judith Campbell?

Edgar tells me in my capacity

as Attorney General

and as much as my capacity

as your brother, I imagine,

that you're having an affair

with Judith Campbell.

Who is also having an affair

with Sam Giancana.

Sam Giancana is a mobster.

I'm aware of who Sam is.

Jesus Christ, Jack. I'm investigating

Sam Giancana for racketeering!

The press has been very good about

looking the other way when it comes to...

But this is dangerous.

All right.

Is there anything else?

No Judith Campbell.

No Giancana.

No mob.

Mr. Oswald.

I've already answered

all your questions.

Would you mind talking with us again?

Just a few minutes.

Well, my wife and

daughter are inside, so.

We don't need to disturb them.

We'll just talk here.

We learned that you contacted the

Russian Embassy in Washington.

You mind telling us why?

My wife is a Russian citizen.

She's supposed to let the

embassy know where she is.

Is that all? What do

you mean, is that all?

Did you talk to any Soviet

intelligence officers?

About what?

About American imperialism?

About inequality for Negroes?

What?

What I want to know, Lee, is are

they asking you to spy for them?

Is that why they

let you come back?

Is that why they

let you bring Marina

and your daughter, June?

Are you a Russian spy?

Why would anyone

discuss spying with me?

I mean, you're the big, bad FBI.

Shouldn't you know?

Ain't you got

bigger fish to fry?

Think of the state that our

country is in at the moment.

You come here to harass me in front

of my home? Look where I live.

Get out.

Come on. Let's go.

Your verdict?

I don't know. He's a jerk.

Insolent, arrogant.

You tell me. Would you

choose this guy as a spy?

I don't see how

he's a security risk.

I say we close it.

This could be your

last case, John.

Lee Oswald. Then I'm done.

Twenty and out.

FBI.

In Russia it's KGB.

Here it's FBI.

What is that?

Where did you get

the money for that?

I told you not to let

her in this house.

How can I say no?

Marina, you just do what I say.

You understand? That's it.

You just do as I say.

I'm the man in this house.

You're not a man.

You're a little boy.

They're afraid of me. They're the

FBI, and they're afraid of me.

Everyone afraid of Alik.

They've been following me

and persecuting me.

Kelly Masterson

Kelly Masterson is an American screenwriter, playwright and writer who lives in New York. He wrote the screenplay for the film Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, for which he is perhaps best known. Before moving to New York to stage several of his early plays, he studied Theology at the University of California, Davis.He tried to get the script for Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, made seven years before director Sidney Lumet agreed to direct it. In describing his script he has said: "I don't know. It was winter, and I was depressed I guess when I was writing it. I'm fascinated by the folly of human nature. I love characters who we understand and sympathize with, but we just shake our heads at how stupidly they act. This probably comes from my theology background but I love the big themes of good and evil and how we're such a combination of both. We try to chart a path that's on the side of good, but we all have evil impulses in us."Subsequent to his success with Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, he has worked in several media including stage plays, film and television. Masterson's play Edith. about Woodrow and Edith Wilson premiered at the Berkshire Theater Festival in 2012. He also collaborated with Korean director Bong Joon-ho on the critically acclaimed Snowpiercer, an English-language production that received a North American release in 2014. Masterson wrote the teleplay for the television movie, Killing Kennedy, which aired in November 2013 on the National Geographic Channel. more…
