Soon after, it occurred to me that a good lip reader might be able to determine from the film when Gov. Connally said both statements. In February, I met Bat City (Michigan) researcher Jerry Charbonear, and mentioned the idea to him. He said he knew someone who might be able to help. This month, at his home, Charbonear introduced me to James and Kimberly Petrimoulx, both experienced lip readers, and their son Jimmy, who provided valuable rapid translation. We used a videotape copy of the Zapruder film for general context, and for facial detail we studied high-quality complete sequences of Zapruder frame slides. Even with these, there were limitations to what could be learned from the film, but three hours of close and repeated study produced some results which may be of interest to our colleagues:
