Poignant, but I thought kind of a downer. I like "The Bone Collector" with Denzel Washington and Queen Latifa as his PCA, despite its ridiculously innaccurate portrayal of life as a quad (he's very dextrous with a mouse, but never leaves his bed). Don't like to reveal surprise endings, but "Million Dollar Baby" bugged me.
