I'm going to check it out. It's a great cast, although Barry Levinson has been pretty hit-or-miss lately. Pacino does strike a slight resemblance to Kevorkian in the poster.

Great movie, Pacino at his best

This is one of the best and most entertaining films I've seen all year. It's a shame it's not going to play in US theaters. I won't be surprised if it plays in European theaters though. This is Pacino's best performance in years. If this was in the theaters, he would probably get Oscar nominated. I guarantee he's going to win a Best Actor Emmy. Brenda Vaccaro will win an Emmy as well. Everyone else was excellent too - Danny Huston was great.

Great story and It's pretty sad how USA is so behind the times....

Pacino was very good

I hadn't heard anything about this movie until I saw this thread. I'm definitely going to have to watch it based on the raves I've read here.

I just watched this last night, and I thought it was very well done. Pacino did a great job portraying Kevorkian. Very little of the "Pacino shout" style of acting... :-)
