An urgent film about today’s health care crisis

So important that it’s screening twice, “Money-Driven Medicine,” a new documentary produced by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney (“Taxi to the Dark Side”) and based on Maggie Mahar’s book, presents “a comprehensive analysis of the systemic causes of America’s high medical costs and poor quality of care.”

It plays at 10 a.m. at the Texas Capitol Auditorium and at 7 p.m. at the Millennium Youth Center Complex on Dec. 2. Both shows are free and followed by a discussion with Consumers Union and the Center for Public Policy Priorities.

More on the movie and its trailer HERE.
