 Synopses for Critical Care (1997)
1.CRITICAL CARE, directed by Sidney Lumet and starring James Spader, focuses on a young medical doctor, Werner Ernst, who rebels against the hospital that employs him when he realizes that the doctors favor wealthy patients and those with generous medical insurance.   

2.At Memorial Hospital no one ever dies…Until their insurance runs out.



Dr, Werner Ernst is an over worked intern who only wants what is best for his elderly, comatose patient- until he falls for the ailing man's beautiful daughter Felicia. The seductive Felicia has ten million reasons to let her father "die with dignity," while her deeply religious sister has her own motives for keeping him alive. Caught between passion and duty, Werner descends into a moral mine field where the physicain's god-like powers of life and death depend not on knowing right from wrong… but having the courage to choose.
