| | Patch AdamsSynopsis: A true story of Hunter "Patch" Adams (Academy Award®-winner Robin Williams), an aspiring doctor in the 1970's who attempted to treat his patients with a medicine that modern science had totally disregarded: humour. After a stint in a mental hospital where he discovers his need to help others, a young Patch enters medical school. There he develops his own methods of reaching patients as an antidote to the pomposity he witnesses in his instructors and fellow students. While his patients and fellow staff members appreciate his approach, the powers-that-be frown upon his "unschooled" methods and attempt to prevent him from practicing. Casts: Robin Williams, Monica Potter, Philip Seymour Hoffman Duration : 115 minutes
