A Movie Question

[ABM]

I'm considering renting You Don't Know Jack, a Barry Levinson movie about Jack Kevorkian starring Al Pacino, Brenda Vaccaro, and John Goodman.

Anyone seen it? It looks promising.

Thanks,

ABM

I'm thinking there's no happy ending.

A very sobering, yet well acted movie (docudrama). Glad I rented it.

On April 15 and 16, 2010, Kevorkian appeared on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360,[31] Anderson asked, "You are saying doctors play God all the time?" Kevorkian said: "Of course. Anytime you interfere with a natural process, you are playing God."[32] Some of the cast of the film You Don't Know Jack (a movie based on Kevorkian's life) including director Barry Levinson, Susan Sarandon and John Goodman were interviewed alongside Kevorkian. Kevorkian was again interviewed by Neil Cavuto on Your World on April 19, 2010 regarding the movie as well as discussing Kevorkian's world view. You Don't Know Jack premiered April 24, 2010 on HBO.[33] The film premiered April 14 at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City. Kevorkian walked the red carpet alongside Al Pacino who portrays him in the film.[34] Pacino was awarded an Emmy for his portrayal, and personally thanked Kevorkian, who was in the audience, upon receiving the award.

Did Barfo get semi-banned? He's posting half as much.
