"Wit" is an HBO movie made several years ago starring Emma Thompson as a
woman dying of cancer and how she is treated by her physicians and hospital
staff. Excellent and should be required viewing by every nursing and medical
student.

Never heard of it.  Is it new?  Anyone famous in it?  Not that it matters
but just curious.  Is it out in theaters or just rentable?
I would like to recommend TWISTED.  It was on PBS but if you Google it, I
bet they have it at the major rental DVD companies.  It's about life with a
movement disorder.  Having a minor version of one, spasmodic Dysphonia, I
can tell you it's really an eye opener.

I highly recommend "Wit". It is a very insightful and well-done movie
regarding EOL issues.
