I don't know much about the Kennedys, and hadn't heard of the Chappaquiddick incident before watching this film, which was quite serious and quite good, including in the eeriness of the scenes leading up to the fatal accident, the weight it gives to Mary Jo Kopechne's death, Ted Kennedy's characterisation (was his father's breathing over the telephone meant to invoke Darth Vader?), and the way the political hardheads handle the situation.
An aside - Jackie has turned out to be one of those films which has really stuck and grown over time.
