Seize the Day (1986)
Agree - small gem of a film
Saw this on American Playhouse years ago. A very powerful performance by Robin Williams. A slice in the life of a man on the brink of desperation, a life long midnight of the soul. There is no resolution because there is not supposed to be a resolution. I don't necessarily recommend seeking it out, but if given a chance to see it please do so.
Horizon: Life Story (1987)
See the movie, read the book(s)!
A fun romp through science history. It captures a certain flavor of the times, situations and people. But if you really want to get into _it_, go read Watson's "The Double Helix" or Crick's "What Mad Pursuit" or Judson's "Eighth Day of Creation". I first saw this movie as a junior in high school and it really made my soul soar. I used to watch it over again while in college to pick-up my spirits. This movie had an intro bio class of 300+ applauding!
