A 46-year-old man with a lean, athletic build, standing at 6 feet tall. He has thick, reddish-brown hair neatly combed back, piercing blue eyes, and a slightly tanned complexion. His face bears the marks of chronic back pain and Addison's disease, giving him a somewhat gaunt appearance despite his youthful energy.

Governor Connally
secondary
A middle-aged man with a sturdy build, clean-shaven face, and neatly combed dark hair showing traces of gray. His posture exudes confidence, fitting his political stature.
Secret Service Agent
secondary
A fit, clean-cut man in his early 30s with a muscular build, short-cropped dark hair, and a determined expression. His posture is upright, trained for alertness and quick action. He wears the standard Secret Service attire of the era.
Construction Worker

Dialog

John F. Kennedy Well, Jackie, I don't think Dallas could give us a warmer welcome if they tried.
Jackie Kennedy The roses are lovely, Jack. Though I do wish they wouldn't throw them quite so... vigorously.
John F. Kennedy That's Texas enthusiasm for you. Reminds me of Boston in '46 - except with less snow and more...
Jackie Kennedy More sunshine? Or more cowboy hats?
John F. Kennedy Both, I'd say. And considerably fewer Kennedys in the crowd.
Jackie Kennedy Look at that building - all those windows. It's like being watched by a hundred eyes.
John F. Kennedy Occupational hazard, my dear. Though I'd take these spectators over the White House press corps any day.
