NotesA story of doctors being trained with its usual ups and downs. I enjoyed this film because I like the main players and am a sucker for romantic melodrama. The final test for Modine's intelligent but uncommitted trainee is when his teacher, Lahti, has Lupus. Lots of medical detail but little on Lupus except for the diagnosis. Lahti's case is fatal.
