Re: [Videolib] Frontline "An Appointment with Death" 1994
Randal, Filmakers Library has a wonderful film called "Last Rights." It asks who should decide how life ends? The patient? The family? The physician? The healthcare system? "Last Rights" is a compelling documentary looking at the choices available to four dying people. The intent is to introduce viewers to the complexity of end-of-life choices. To access information please click on the title Last Rights.

With long running PBS series, we’ve had luck in the past contacting the production company directly to get OOP episodes from their back catalog. And sometimes they’re free ☺ Kim Stanton Head, Media Library University of North Texas kim.stan...@unt.edu P: (940) 565-4832 F: (940) 369-7396 From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of Randal Baier Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2011 10:43 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] Frontline "An Appointment with Death" 1994 Does anyone know if Frontline has reissued any of their earlier episodes in DVD formats.

There are many Frontline programs available online, but this doesn’t appear to be one of them. Rats. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/view/ I assume it deals assisted suicide?
