A doctor working in a modern city hospital feels himself being dragged deeper into chaos by a demanding father and a daughter who does not care. Oscar-winning black comedy, starring George C Scott, Diana Rigg, Barnard Hughes and Nancy Marchand.

Dr. Bock, the chief of medicine at a Manhattan hospital, is suicidal after the collapse of his personal life. When an intern is found dead in a hospital bed, it appears to Bock to be a case of unforgivable malpractice. Hours later, another doctor, who happens to be responsible for another case of malpractice, is found dead. Despondent, Bock finds himself drawn to Barbara, the daughter of a comatose missionary.
