ARTICLE 99
Ray Liotta, Kiefer Sutherland, Forest Whitaker, Lea Thompson
Orion; Directed by Howard Deutch
Rated R; 100 minutes; 1992
As timely as today's headlines, ARTICLE 99 exposes one of the great outrages of our time in its compelling story of a staff which discovers that a sense of humor, a blatant disregard for authority and mostly, a commitment to healing, are what it takes to keep its Hippocratic oath. A controversial look at one of our most compelling medical issues.
REVIEWS
"ARTICLE 99 is 100% entertaining! 'M*A*S*H movies stateside! Provocative, satiric comedy that should not be missed. It crackles with wit. Ray Liotta is a spark plug that drives a terrific ensemble cast."
—Bill Diehl, ABC RADIO
"ARTICLE 99 couldn't hit theaters at a better time. It's an irresistibly potent salute to the real power of our people. Liotta and Sutherland are terrific. Eli Wallach delivers a performance that tears your heart out."
—Joanna Langfield, MOVIE MINUTE
"Wonderfully acted. Hilarious, maddening and touching. The logical successor to 'Catch 22', 'M*A*S*H' and 'Network'. It entertains enormously."
—John Corcoran, CHANNEL 9 NEWS, LOS ANGELES
"As vital and immediate as the evening news."
—Bob Thomas, ASSOCIATED PRESS
