You Don't Know Jack by Barry Levinson, 2009 (NR)
with Al Pacino (Scarface, Ocean's Thirteen, Simone), Susan Sarandon (Solitary Man, Jeff Who Lives At Home, The Company You Keep, Cloud Atlas), John Goodman (The Monuments Men, The Artist, Flight, The Princess and the Frog, Trouble with the Curve), Danny Huston ( X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Hitchcock, Robin Hood, The Conspirator), Brenda Vaccaro, Delaney Williams, Eric Lange, Allen Lewis Rickman, Adam Mucci, Peter Conboy, James Urbaniak
Al Pacino stars in this Emmy-winning biopic that focuses on the life of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the controversial physician who boldly advocated the legalization of euthanasia and personally helped more than 100 terminally ill patients commit suicide. Directed by Hollywood veteran Barry Levinson, the made-for-cable drama also stars Susan Sarandon as vocal activist Janet Good and John Goodman as Kevorkian's trusted friend and supporter Neal Nicol.
This movie is about euthanasia and for those who never really got into the dept of the subject, Jack Kevorkian was one of the character of our history the really insisted that you should not skip the question. Putting at risk his liberty. So it is interesting to see the journey, the opposition, and eventually build your own opinion on the character.
