There are two bad points in this film: SPOILERS AHEAD
1 - It is a gay film... they lost a lot of time with the love scenes, semi-explicit, by the way, of two men.. the "doctor" and his assistant, and they are not pleasant scenes if you think that is seeing a film about a real peson.
I spent a lot of time reading about his life and, in no moment, is said that he was an homossexual or if he had an affair with his male assistant... anyway, let´s go to the second problem.
2 - If you watch the movie, as I did, you will know that he, and his assistant, were convicted to death, OK ? The film ends with both of them going to jail, perhaps, waiting for the penalty.. but no ! He was sentenced to three years, that was reduced to 1 1/2 years and lived freely almost more 10 years. It is an absurd ! You see the film and find the truth thru Google... Bad film.
