A Lovable Old Curmudgeon.

Michael Cook at BioEdge (where you can view the trailer) writes about the upcoming HBO special on Jack Kevorkian, "You Don't Know Jack" (to air on April 24):

Well, blow me down, Al Pacino and Susan Sarandon have proved me dead wrong. Here's the trailer for a HBO film about a martyr for euthanasia.
