Just watched this hour long special on HBO of a book I had to read for Genetic Engineering when I was at LSU. Thought it was pretty good. Just wanted to see if anyone else watched this and your opinions on it. Obviously, the book is much better, and there was a lot not touched on for an hour show. Having said that, I think it's worth a watch.
I would especially recommend the book to anyone who works in the medical field.

I didn't know there was a movie but the story is very interesting. I always thought it a bit strange how the family and the storytellers think of it as her living on all over the world when it is really the tumor that killed her living on.

I also read the book in school. I will probably check this out sometime.

I watched the movie last night. Very interesting story. The movie had a Lifetime production feel to it. Oprah
