A sickening film about a sickening man, for all it lionized him.
One really strange scene: the Armenian Museum in Watertown, MA has an exhibition of Kevorkian’s paintings. Which are also sickening, and not very good. But the Armenian community is portrayed as embracing him as one of their own, not distancing themselves or even finding him controversial. Nearly all the paintings are about death and suffering, some about the Armenian genocide. That’s enough for him to be embraced? How accurate the scene, I don’t know.
Pacino did do a great job of acting but I wouldn’t have seen the film by my own choice.
If Jeff Fieger could have played himself they would have won the whole thing. LOL
Did the film show his home? (a dumpy apartment upstairs of a Chinese restaurant in Royal Oak?) What kind of a “doctor” lives in a place like that, I ask ya?
