"Awakenings" (1990) PG-13

Based on the true story, medical researcher Dr. Malcolm Sayer (Robin Williams) attempts to treat a group of patients who've laid comatose in a Bronx hospital for 30 years. Sayer prescribes an experimental drug, and it works. Robert De Niro co-stars as a patient unconscious since adolescence who must come to terms with life as an adult.

A very interesting movie, I thought. I really enjoy movies based on anything medical, and especially if it is a true story. This was a very enlightening movie...and Robert DeNiro did a fastastic job of portraying someone going through all sorts of uncontrolled body movements as a result of his response to experimental drugs used to treat his condition.
