Library of Congress digitized assassination films?

[Jake Maxwell]

Just wondering if anyone knows how to access the Library of Congress digitized assassination films?
I recall some source saying they scanned four of the films...
Any knowledge of how to access?

     This is not at all what the documentary claims about the films... which show better copy than any other I’ve seen.
     Here is the exact wordage in quotes from the documentary explaining how the films were scanned... and yes, by the Library of Congress...

     The narrator in The Lost Bullet documentary says (17:17) –
“Before the films of the Grassy Knoll can be closely examined, they, along with three other home movies from Dealey Plaza, will undergo cutting edge digital scanning at the Library of Congress Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation.” (also called The National Audio-Visual Conservation Center)

     Ken Weissman, with the Library of Congress, says in The Lost Bullet documentary that they purchased a device specifically to scan 8mm films (17:32)… and “in the case of the scanning process, the resolution of the scan is actually higher than the native resolution of the film itself.”

     The narrator then says (17:52):
“The high-resolution digital scans reveal more than projected images ever would – including the tiny areas of exposed film between the sprocket holes that held the film in place…
If there are hidden secrets in these films, this process could uncover them for the first time.”

     Once the films go through this digital scanning process, Max Holland then examines them.

     Perhaps there are some frames and footage from other sources... like Image Trends... but if the documentary is correct, the Library of Congress has scanned and digitized several assassination films.

Anyone know how to access the Library of Congress digitized copies of the assassination films?

[Jake Maxwell]

Just to be clear... According to this documentary, there are assassination films that have been scanned and digitized by the Library of Congress... and not in the DC area... but in Culpepper, Virginia... at the Library of Congress Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation.

These scanned high-resolution digitized images appear to be at a much higher quality than most any other rendition... and as the documentary says, “The high-resolution digital scans reveal more than projected images ever would.”
Each viewer will have to decide... but after years of close examination of the films, that is my opinion as well...

It does seem like one of the slo-mo techniques produces an odd rendering - especially in one of the Towner sequences...

However, I do think there is another caution for all to consider,... and this is more or less challenging... for some more than others, I think...

It is possible to see something in these “high-resolution digital scans” that reveal more than the original projected images have shown us before...
If what we see doesn’t fit with a pre-conceived theory, we might be tempted to simply dismiss the image as a morph or an artifact...

Also, it is possible that some “artifacts” are not actually artifacts... but purposeful distortions and additions to the film... to cover-up features the original film captures, perhaps... or to confuse the viewer...

The Lost Bullet likely shows the best view of these films that we have access to at the present...

I would like to see what the Library of Congress has scanned and archived...
Actually, making digital images available to the public would not diminish the quality of the digital images that remain archived...

Seeing these scans might not be possible for various reasons...
But if anyone has information on how to access them, I would appreciate the information...

I don’t know about the Henninger Media Services you mention in regards to the Zapruder Film that is digitized and shown in The Lost Bullet... But if that is the source of this digitized film, I would like information on how to access that as well, if possible...

Thanks... 

(And thanks for the link... I will see what is possible through that route...
