A biographical video documentary giving a balanced look at New York's charismatic, German-born Dr. Max Jacobson (1900-1979), one of my childhood physicians. Flourishing in the '50s and '60s, he later ran into professional trouble over amphetamines -- "speed" -- he allegedly administered to celebrities including President John F. Kennedy, and Jackie Kennedy, Cecil B. De Mille, Alan Jay Lerner, Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams, Anthony Quinn and a host of others. He played a role at the historic JFK-Khrushchev summit in Vienna in 1961, and has been the controversial subject of 16 books.
