Isn't it interesting, and really revealing, that the same doctors who believed the head wound was in the rear/back of the head never said they saw a bullet
entrance wound? So, where did the bullet enter JFK's head?
Shorter: Why didn't they see the bullet entrance?
As to the film: Zapruder's granddaughter, Alexandria Zapruder, wrote a very moving and detailed book on her grandfather and how the film came to exist. The Zapruders arrived here from Russia after escaping the anti-semitism and pogroms of Czarist Russia (Abraham was born in Ukraine). They were lifelong Democrats and Abraham Zapruder in particular greatly admired JFK. His wife was so upset at the assassination that she repeatedly refused to watch the film.
One detail she mentions is that, according to what Sitzman told her mother, Zapruder saw the lead motorcycles and started filming; then recognized it wasn't JFK/the limo and stopped filming (to save film). He then put the camera down and manually fully rewound the spring that moved the film. He then had to quickly pick it back up when the limo appeared. So he simply didn't continue to film the event. He missed the turn by the limo.
There is no evidence he was part of any conspiracy. In order for some (not all) conspiracists to make their fantasies true they have to simply make things up in order for their ideas to work. This is another example of it.
Here is the granddaughter's brief account:
