...safety legislation will come before Congress. It stipulates the need for handguns equipped with child safety locks, mandatory three-day background checks for gun purchasers at gun shows and a ban on importation of large-capacity ammunition clips.

In all fairness, each does work with relative competence to save Dr. Bearing's life in the face of metastasized cancer, but only one character attempts to salvage the vanishing shreds of the patient's dignity in the process. Susie (Lisa Tharps) gives a moving performance as the simple-minded nurse who ultimately proves to be more intelligent...
