 The film version starts with Marguerite and Marina getting out of the Secret Service car, with Marguerite in the lead carrying Rachel way ahead of Marina.

And before Marina gets out of the car, June gets out and eagerly takes the hand of the friendly Secret Service agent. Now that is unusual for a 1 year, 9 month old to be so receptive to a stranger.
But again, I want to say that the whole idea of taking a 1 year 9 month old to see her dead, mangled father in a horrifically violated state is beyond comprehension. What would you say when you got there? "Junie, Daddy is having a bad day."
But finally, Marina gets out, and she has her coat on. JD Jeffrey posted the image of Marina leaving the hospital with her coat on, and since she's wearing her coat here, as well as inside the hospital, when and how did her coat come off for that other picture?
Another curious thing about this version is that besides having the box of tissues, she carries a bag. And she proceeds with the bag. She does not put it back in the car.
So, which version is real? I don't know. I don't know if there is a real version because neither Marina nor Robert said anything about going to Parkland Hospital in their WC testimonies.
Marguerite Oswald did, but as I read through her testimony, the whole thing struck me as weird and non-credible. For instance, she claimed that at the Paine house on Friday night, Marine took her into the bedroom and showed her a photo of Lee holding a rifle on which was written ,"To my daughter June, with love". She said that Marina wanted her to take the picture because she knew it was incriminating. But, Marguerite refused. Then, Marguerite was shown the Backyard photo, but she said that wasn't it. She described the photo she saw as Lee holding the rifle with two hands above his head.
Now, there is nothing credible about this and more. Oswald did not own a rifle, and if you have any doubt about it, read this by John Armstrong:

Another weird thing Marguerite said was that in their brief visit with Oswald, he was hammering them about getting new shoes for June. Robert Oswald, famously, claimed the same thing. But, I'll remind you that LHO was of sound mind. He was not deranged. There is a time and place for everything, and in his situation, to fuss about shoes would have been insane. So, I don't believe any of that. 
So, since neither Marina nor Robert said anything about going to Parkland, and since nothing Marguerite said can be trusted, her being so wacky, and since the photographic record of them at Parkland is full of contradictions, I consider the visit dubious.
