Notes2nd Director Michael Steinberg A very good film indeed. Good acting which makes the people real to us, attention to detail, and situations which arise from the condition of the people involved. Funny and engaging. If you've only seen Snipes in "Passenger 57" or "The Specialist" then watch this film and see him given a chance to act. Set almost wholly inside the hospital (like 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest') without impressing on us any sense of imprisonment except that felt by the patients.
