Extreme Measures M 1996 | vl

Hugh Grant and Gene Hackman square off in a bristling thriller packed with tension and a medical-ethics dilemma that will keep you thinking long after the film ends, and is based on Michael Palmer's 1991 novel of the same name. Director: Michael Apted.

Grant plays it straight as Dr Guy Luthan, a N.Y. emergency room doctor whose patient's body and all his records disappear. His sleuth like curiosity leads him to a sinister, unethical practise.
