Screen 2: Such Good Friends

on BBC Two England

starring
Dyan Cannon , James Coco
Otto Preminger 's witty and compulsive film combines black comedy with a medical expose of some of the more gruesome aspects of American hospitals.
On the advice of his family doctor, art director Richard Messenger goes to hospital for the removal of a mole on his neck. The apparently trivial operation develops complications and causes Richard's wife, Julie, to re-examine their relationship.
