The Doctor
1991
123 Min
Surgeon Jack MacKee (William Hurt) doesn’t exactly have the most nurturing bedside manner; in fact, he regards his patients as specimens rather than people. In a reversal of fortune, MacKee learns that he has cancer and begins to aspire to a higher moral plateau of love and compassion with patients. He’s helped in his mission via a special bond he forges with a fellow cancer victim (Elizabeth Perkins).
