YOU DON'T KNOW JACK (2009) A

HBO, Docudrama

Excellent movie about Jack Kevorkian . . . an MD and an "oddball and maverick" by contemporary standards, who helped bring the subject of physician assisted suicide to the American public. Superb performances by Al Pachino, Susan Sarandon and John Goodman. Movie was wonderful even though dramatic tension was missing because most everyone knows how it ends.

From Netflix: Al Pacino stars in this enthralling biopic that focuses on the life of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the controversial physician who boldly advocated the legalization of euthanasia and personally helped over 100 terminally ill patients commit suicide. Directed by Hollywood veteran Barry Levinson.
