Second Opinion: Laetrile at Sloan-Kettering (Eric Merola Documentary 2014)

The story of a young science-writer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, who risked everything by blowing the whistle on a massive cover-up involving a promising cancer therapy.

Movie Review: An insider's account from the 70's at a well known NYC cancer research hospital exposing the truth (using the hospital's own records) behind how the profit system has corrupted the search for finding a "cure" for cancer. A promising treatment was swept under the rug and the scientist who found it (co-founder of chemotherapy) was forced to lie about his treatment. The treatment was not the "cure", but it worked remarkably well and very cheap. The problem was it was "very cheap". Even though the movie is centered around 1 character and it's almost entirely a narrative, the topic and the evidence is so damning, it's exciting. It's a knock-out punch guilty as charged for the hospital. Definitely recommended to all.
