What happens here
The creator gets out of his car and walks around the area near the Texas School Book Depository at dusk. He observes the road and buildings, wondering if the bricks on the ground are the original ones from 1963. He points out a "white X on the road" which marks the spot of the assassination, noting he's seen historical footage but it doesn't "do it justice" in black and white. He wants to create a "then and now" shot with his car at the exact spot. He finds a group of young men also filming in the area and, recognizing him, they offer to help him achieve his desired photo by filming him driving by the spot.
Goal: Capture the essence of the historical site and plan the "then and now" photo recreation.
