★★★ · I've got to get to you first · Spuzz · 2016-09-07
Film documenting progress and challenges still ahead in the fight against heart disease. Sponsored by Life Insurance companies (!!) The film tells about why these companies are in research for this plague and how they are progressing. nowadays, it doesn't seem like a whole lot has been discovered, I suppose there are small victories, but we still have heart disease :(
★★★ · Big Payout When An MI Kills You At 50 · JayKay49 · 2016-10-29
No surprise then that life insurance companies were interested in researching heart disease. 30 years later, along would come the coronary artery stent. Adds 20 years to your life if you get one (or several) before "the big one" happens. It's 1950. Not a peep about cutting lard out of your diet or not smoking ciggies, probably the two biggest risk factors for coronary artery disease. OK film for the time.
