Hospital movies

1 The Diving Bell

And The Butterfly

Wits have called it My Left Eyelash.

But it's better than that.

2 The Barbarian

Invasions

Death, public health,

and the post-9/11 mindset.

3 Carry On Nurse

Classic bedpans and

bum-pinching lark.

4 M*A*S*H

The Army breaks 'em, the surgeons stitch 'em back up.

5 The Kingdom

There's something rotten in the state

of Denmark - especially in the hospital that houses Lars von Trier's film.
