Re: [Videolib] nurses in film
The Video Project just released a film called NURSES - IF FLORENCE COULD SEE US NOW. Here's an excerpt from the description: NURSES - IF FLORENCE COULD SEE US NOW offers a unique look into the complex and challenging world of being a nurse, exploring the many different roles that nurses play and their areas of practice, from the bedside to the board room, and the many ways that nurses impact the lives of others. Filmed on location in 10 states across the country, more then 70 nurses are featured from hospitals, clinics, business, nursing schools and nursing associations, including bedside nurses, nurse practitioners, public health nurses, nurse educators and nurse leaders, among them the Corporate CNO of Kaiser Permanente and the CEO and President of the American Nurses Association. More details and trailer here: http://www.videoproject.com/nurses.html And happy to offer an online preview, if that's helpful.

A faculty member is looking for films for undergraduate nursing students to compare and contrast core values, professionalism, and comportment with representations of nurses/nursing in film media. I think she's interested in both feature films and documentaries. Your help is greatly appreciated. I'd be happy to post the resulting list if anyone's interested. THANKS.

It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
Re: [Videolib] nurses in film
THE YOUNG DOCTORS (1961) has an interesting early scene in which a class of nursing students is given a lesson in endurance (by a wise, kindly, and mordantly humorous Fredric March) at an autopsy. One of the students goes on to become the love interest of a doctor played by Ben Gazzara. The film might be useful as a portrayal of increasingly respectful yet still somewhat patronizing, gender-charged attitudes toward nurses in the evolving early sixties. Paul --- F.
