It proved to be impossible to shoot at the historic location on Elm Street near Dealey Plaza where John F. Kennedy was assassinated, as it is now a busy thoroughfare, and also a tourist attraction. Fittingly, the production found a location near the nation's capital to stand-in. Producer Scott Franklin recalled: "We found a great stretch of highway in Maryland. It had similar overpasses, and there, we were able to put the camera on a crane attached to a car for a different point of view. Natalie was in the car the whole time. She did all of her own work that day, no stunt doubles, and we used all of it. It was a really tough and emotional day. We wanted to be true to the events, yet also sensitive. Kennedy's death was truly violent and grisly, but I think Pablo Larraín did a great job of walking the line. He re-creates it in a way that is almost lyrical, and very respectful."
