HBO's You Don't Know Jack follows the rise and fall of "Dr. Death" in the media as he championed the cause of doctor-assisted suicide in the 1990s. It is probably director Barry Levinson's most memorable film since Wag the Dog
(1997). But the real triumph belongs to the marvelous Al Pacino (Carlito's Way
) who, as Dr. Jack Kevorkian, gives his most nuanced performance in nearly twenty years.
