"You Don't Know Jack" on HBO tonight. A must see for anyone
who has ever been a caretaker. My own experience was horrific with my mother.."If you loved me you'd kill me." The program has received a four-star rating and a potential Emmy for Pacino's portrayal. A "must see" in my book. Dr. Kevorkian was not the best spokesman for his work but this film explains so much about it. Also thrilled to be able to see Brenda Vacarro again.

5. I can't say I would want him as my personal physician
although I support the ability to make end of life decisions and pain management decisions

6. What a pick...monmouth
this movie is such an emotional, and yet wonderful. Biography of Dr. Jack Kevorkian, brilliantly performed by Pacino with a great supporting cast.

A must watch indeed.

7. Just to see Brenda Vaccaro again will be a treat. You know John
Goodman and Sarandon will be worth the watch and the reviews indicate that Pacino's performance is Emmy worthy.
