Medicamento mortal

Melodramatic and quasi-fairytale like-moments reach to serve the idealism of heroism. However, the whole thing is a rather delightful saga depicting themes of friendship, corruption, and changing relationships. Dick Van Dyke is great as the diplomatic boss and Annette O'Toole is cast perfectly as the best friend, although it's likely this two-parter would have ran out of steam without its lead, Pamela Sue Martin. Probably a forgotten talent now, but quite worth becoming acquainted with, especially if all her work is this good. The author's centrepiece of the pharmaceutical industry provides lots of twists and turns too. Sam Neil's accent is a bit questionable, but all in all a very pleasing drama indeed.
