Why I believe you're right. As I recall, Oliver Stone dealt with this in
one of the byzantine subplots of the uncut version of JFK, the movie. Paul
Reubens, aka "PeeWee Herman", played Tad Szulc. Szulc meets with attorney
Garrison, played by Kevin Costner to a fault, in a sex-club in Madison,
Wisconsin run by an ex-Trotskyist who had secret ties to the Freemasons.
This character is played by Chris Elliot, who is Bob Elliot's (of Bob and
Ray fame) talented son. Do you remember when Chris Elliot played the
demented character who used to pop out of the floor in the old Dave
Letterman show on NBC? Boy, has the show gone downhill since he moved to
CBS. I just can't stand the interviews with airhead actors promoting their
next rotten flick. You might as well watch "Entertainment Tonight."
