VANCOUVER, BC / TheNewswire / October 15, 2015 - Network Media Group Inc. ("Network" or the "Company") (TSX: NTE.V) is pleased to announce it has commenced production of a feature documentary on the life and legacy of one of the most famous personalities in American history, John F. Kennedy Jr., the son of beloved U.S. President John F. Kennedy.
I Am John F. Kennedy Jr. is the latest addition to Network's acclaimed "I Am" series of documentaries on the high profile lives and legacies of the world's most renowned figures, including Bruce Lee, Steve McQueen, Evel Knievel and, most recently, Chris Farley and Johnny Cash.
"John F. Kennedy Jr. was born into the glare of the harshest spotlight ever and became an immediate public fascination. He secured his life-enduring position as darling of the masses after delivering, at three years old, the most famous salute in history before the casket of his slain father, U.S. President John F. Kennedy," states Paul Gertz, Network President and Executive Producer of the film. "Yet in spite of the unprecedented scrutiny of his every move, JFK Jr. led a life of action and accomplishment, including founding and publishing the innovative politically themed magazine George. Our film will capture the entire JFK Jr. story as has never been told before."
