Goofs

When the explanation of the "double eight" system (the format the Zapruder film was shot in) is given, the graphic shows the second row of frames going in the same direction as the first row. When the supply and take-up reels are interchanged to expose the second row of frames, the film is traveling in the opposite direction.
