In the years following World War I, sketchily educated Kansas physician John Romulus Brinkley would parlay his theories about goat testicle implantation as an impotence cure-and his acquisition of a radio station where he could push them-into a business empire and a pair of gubernatorial runs. This largely animated, headshake-inducing documentary looks at the improbable rise-and ultimate fall due to a nemesis AMA-of one of American medical history's most notorious quacks. 79 min. Widescreen; Subtitles: English; featurettes; theatrical trailer.back to top
