E-DRUG: Movie involving pharmaceutical promotion (3)
------------------------------------------------

The movie, Side Effects, discussed here is a dumb comedy, and not effective
as a teaching tool. I purchased it to use in my graduate course and was
singularly disappointed in it. However, the accompanying educational
documentary, Money Talks, is a useful teaching tool. I used it with
both MPH students and first and second year medical students. The medical
students liked it so well they were trying to figure out how to pirate
copies.
