The trailer for “HINCKLEY – I SHOT THE PRESIDENT” appears to be a nuanced and thoughtful approach to one of the most shocking and disturbing events in recent American history. The title alone makes it clear that the focus will be on the shooter, John Hinckley Jr., and his motivations for attempting to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981.
The opening scenes introduce Hinckley, portrayed with a palpable intensity, as he seemingly plans and prepares for his devastating act. There is a tangible tension as the trailer gives us glimpses into the workings of his troubled mind and the forces that led him to this terrible action.
What seems most impactful, however, are the scenes that show us the human consequences of this event. We see the faces of the Secret Service agents, White House aides, and Reagan’s loved ones, all deeply affected by the assassination attempt. This conveys the gravity of what occurred and reminds us that, behind the headlines and political analyses, there are lives that were profoundly impacted.
