Take a break from work: watch a trailer…
Oh my goodness, won’t someone think of the children? The wee babies, they’re going to diiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeee! Is there no heroic doctor among us who can help them?
Hoorah! It’s Harrison Ford to the rescue!
But hey, why doesn’t Brendan Fraser just take his dying kids back to his native Canada, where health insurance isn’t a problem and the kids can get the help they need without the need for fucking venture capital?
Extraordinary Measures opens in the U.S. and Canada on January 22, and in the U.K. on February 26.
This is only really interesting to be because parts of it were filmed here in Vancouver WA and in my office building in Portland OR. So I’m looking for those bits. ;)
Was this a better film when it was called Lorenzo’s Oil? I don’t know, I didn’t watch that either.
Wow, Brendan Fraser has put on a lot of flab round the face since he was trying to be the next Indiana Jones in The Mummy. In fact, that’s an interesting connection; I’d pay to watch a recording of Harrison Ford taking him apart when they met on set.
I guess I’ll just have to link arms with my colleagues and picket cinemas, chanting “science doesn’t work that way”…
