Al Pacino and director Barry Levinson(Rain Man, Wag the Dog) are joining forces for You Don’t Know Jack, an HBO telefilm about the life of about Dr. Jack Kevorkian. The film is loosely based on the book "Between the Dying and the Dead: Dr. Jack Kevorkian, the Assisted Suicide Machine and the Battle to Legalize Euthanasia" by Neal Nicol. Kevorkian, also known as Dr. Death, assisted in more than 150 cases of suicide and had beaten the state court system in Michigan numerous times, but was finally convicted after he willingly sent a videotape of himself euthanizing a terminally ill man to 60 Minutes. He was convicted of second-degree murder in 1999. He was released from prison in 2007. The film will trace his rise as he builds his infamous "Mercy Machine," conducts his first assisted suicide, and starts a media frenzy with his epic legal battles defending a patient's right to die.
