Two terrific actors, Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne star in The Good Nurse from 2022.
This is the true story of a serial killer Charles Cullen (Redmayne) who was allowed to keep working in hospitals, continuing to put insulin and digoxin in IV bags to kill patients.
Hospitals would become suspicious and fire him, basically doing nothing so as to avoid liability. For sixteen years.
A nurse in his latest hospital (Chastain) who has befriended Charles secretly helps the police get evidence against him.
Chastain gives a subtle, underplayed performance as an ill but courageous woman who has to keep going until her health insurance kicks in and she can have surgery.
Redmayne is excellent as a nice guy who wants to help Chastain with her patients and family, who in reality is a murderer.
Good, absorbing film, not big on action and fireworks but will keep you interested.
A tragic story of money being more important than human life - in hospitals. Par for the course, I guess.
