Abstract
Towers reviews Joan Robinson: One Woman's Story, an American documentary film about a terminal cancer patient that was first broadcast by the Public Broadcasting Service on 21 January 1980. The film was made at the instigation of Robinson, a writer and editor, and covers the last twenty-two months of her life from the diagnosis of incurable ovarian cancer to her graveside funeral service. Towers praises the film-makers for their empathetic and sensitive handling of a difficult subject, and recommends that the film be made available for teaching purposes.
