Martin Blake is a British medical student
who comes to the US to begin a residency program at a hospital in Southern
California. On the outside he is
handsome and charming but inside he’s insecure and not sure he’s doing a good
enough job in this setting. He
doesn’t do very well with his first patients and feels he’s on shaky ground
with the supervising doctor.
Diane is a teenager with a kidney infection, she likes Dr. Blake and her
parents are very grateful for his care.
They even invite him to their house for dinner to show their
appreciation. The other doctors
are impressed with how well this case is going for him. He doesn’t want her to get well too
soon and he begins adjusting her medication so she will need longer treatment.
Great, just what everyone needs, sick in
the hospital and the doctor doesn’t want you to get well “too quickly?” Creepy, the doctor is always sneaking
around the hospital and he hates when the nurse catches any of his mistakes or
can’t read his writing. Shouldn’t
he be above all of this and shouldn’t he have some ethics? 3 ½* (I liked this movie)
