Critical Care, The Movie

Sidney Lumet (Network, Dog Day Afternoon, The Verdict) and producer/writer Steven Schartz adapted Richard Dooling’s first novel, Critical Care, into a darkly funny (funnily dark?) medical satire starring James Spader, Kyra Sedgwick, Albert Brooks, Helen Mirren, and Anne Bancroft. If you blinked you missed it in the theaters, but it’s widely available on DVD.

A.O. Scott’s review of Critical Care from the New York Times.

I stand corrected only moments after asking my question. I will get this DVD today, and see what I have missed. I was really asking about Brain Storm, but I would like to see this.

Thank you.
