By WENN.com | Monday, April 19, 2010
Pacino plays Dr. Jack Kevorkian in the HBO network project, about the
82-year-old medic who assisted in the suicides of more than 130 people, and
the euthanasia activist admits he is delighted with the film.
Kevorkian tells the New York Daily News, "Al is a terrific guy. The film is
superb. There were times when tears came into my eyes - even after all the
experience I have."
The medic was dubbed Dr. Death in the early 1990s when he performed his
first assisted suicide as part of his 'Mercy Machine'.
Barry Levinson's You Don't Know Jack also stars Susan Sarandon, John Goodman
and Danny Huston and airs in the U.S. on 24 April (10).
