Review Excerpts
“A sardonic, often harrowing look at the American way of life-support.”–Kirkus Reviews

“A scathingly funny black comedy … almost impossible to put down.” –Harper Barnes, St. Louis Post Dispatch.
Critical Care was also a major motion picture directed by Sidney Lumet, starring James Spader, Albert Brooks, Helen Mirren, Kyra Sedgwick, and Anne Bancroft. Producer and screenwriter, Steven Schwartz, adapted Critical Care for the big screen.
