Summary of film
The hospital is a 1971 film that was set in a relatively modern teaching hospital in Manhattan. The protagonist, Dr. Bock, is one of the instructors and also a doctor in this hospital. In the early stages of the film we get to see that things in his life are falling apart in his life. For one, he is separated from his wife, has been rejected by his children and he believes he is impotent. The teaching hospital he works for is also facing imminent crisis. Two doctors and a nurse die unexpectedly and the management of the hospital has to deal with the demands of inhabitants of the building which the hospital intends to demolish. These challenges drive him to have suicidal thoughts.
He gets a temporary relief when he falls in love with Barbara Drummond, his patient`s daughter. Later he finds out that the same patient is the person to blame for the hospital`s woes. Barbara smuggles her father to JFK airport after colluding with Dr. Bock to cover up the patient`s tracks at the hospital through the ‘accidental death` of one of the physicians in the hospital. The patient`s motivation for his heinous acts was what he termed as retribution for the cruelty of modern medical practices. The movie ends with Dr. Bock trying to rectify the chaotic situation in the hospital.
