Look at this gif of the Darnell film. It's in slow-motion, but you are still seeing a lot of activity. Baker is running, but so are others. There are some very peculiar things about it, but I'll let you look at it first.
First, it's supposed to be from the Jimmy Darnell film, but we don't see it in the Darnell film. For instance, look here:

This reminds me of the Gorilla Man clip, supposedly of Billy Lovelady, supposedly from the Jack Martin film, which we don't see in the Jack Martin film. Two years before he died, I asked Gary Mack if the Sixth Floor Museum had a version of the Martin film which included the Gorilla Man clip, and he said no. I asked him if he knew if the intact Martin film existed anywhere, and he didn't know of anywhere. So, are left to believe that someone took some scissors to the Martin film? And to the Darnell film? Who was cutting up these films?
Second, in the Darnell film you're seeing people running in the street, and that's Elm Street. But, it was just seconds after the last shot, maybe 10. We know that immediately after the last shot, Greer finally floored it and the limo took off with speed. And presumably, the motorcade followed, that all the drivers likewise increased their speed accordingly. But, if you look at this clip, you've got people running in the street, and on the left, there is a car, a convertible, with a man sitting in it, and it doesn't seem to be moving at all. So, why at that point in time, would that car be stationary?
So, he is perched up on the back, not down in the seat, and the car door is open. So, the car definitely must be stationary. But, why would that be so at that point in time?
But, then the third thing concerns the Darnell doorway. There is a block of people on the right side of it, the east side, and they don't move.
As I watch the gif, the small woman in white wearing a scarf seems to be climbing the steps on the left side. And the lady on the lower right with the nice shape seems to be moving. And there are other people on the sidewalk in front of the entrance who were definitely moving. But, that block of people on the east side of the doorway- they don't move. And the other thing is to look at their coloring. Look how light they all are. Look how washed out they all look. Notice how dark "color" prevails as the coloring of everyone else except the small woman in white on the left. But then, on the right side of the doorway, there just happened to be a cluster of people all dressed in light colors? What are the chances of that? What is the mathematical probability of it?
We know that this so-called Darnell clip didn't surface until JFK the movie in 1991. So, where did Oliver Stone get it?And why did it take 28 years to appear? And again, if it's from the Darnell film, why don't we see it in the Darnell film?
Questions: Disturbing questions which cast doubt on the authenticity of the whole clip.
