Glory Enough for All (1988) watch online HD

I do not like this rank voting because so much can go into a film that to "average out" the features would possibly be unfair. For instance -- and very briefly -- I rated the new THE WAR OF THE WORLDS "spectacular" in recent conversation. But that would be about . . . it.

GLORY ENOUGH FOR ALL actually brought that lump in the throat at one point when I first saw it on MASTERPIECE THEATRE, when they finally knew they Had It. Cooke introduced the movie as a rare departure from British offerings, this Commonwealth, and frankly much more Canadian offerings should find their way to American television. GLORY ENOUGH is an excellent example.

(Sir) Frederick is shown with all his warts. The academic politics involving MacLeod was completely unknown to me, as was the amazing intersection with the famous Hughes family in the United States. I am fascinated with -- or a sucker for -- stories of human creativity, and biomedical research is as dramatic as anything we do. Throw in the elements of the young underdogs struggling with questions abandoned by better-equipped researchers, then the rivalries that can plague academic inquiry (they are personally no better than the rest of us), and you have a story of epic proportions.

Unlike the story of the Dion "quints," you will not see this on gringo prime time television. No use losing your audience with their remote changers during the brief exposition on endocrinology. Warning: there is no gun play or a car chase, and no smash-bang scene cuts. FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.

I would like to buy the movie Glory Enough For All. I am type 1 diabetic who uses a modern form of the stuff Banting, Best, Collup & McLeod worked on. It'll be 25 years I've lived with diabetes, and when I feel discouraged and sad, seeing this movie makes me appreciate fully the life I have. I use an insulin pump, can check my blood glucose levels in five seconds with the little meters they sell now, I can eat like a 'normal human being' and not like Elizabeth had to on the Allan diet. PLEASE, consider making this available for purchase. I don't want to 'pirate' or 'torrent' stuff because that is stealing. I would like to have a copy of this in its entirety to keep and enjoy.

I saw this movie the first time it was on TV and every time since then. I have several taped copies and I truly believe that this is one of the greates documentaries ever made!

I first saw this mini-series when I was quite young, around 12, and have watched it many times since then. I wish I could find a copy today. The mini-series chronicles the discovery of insulin, led by researchers Frederick Banting and his assistant, Charles Best, and though the subject matter may sound boring, it is gripping story of struggle and determination, highlighted by several excellently-characterized, well-developed personalities. Renowned Canadian actor R.H. Thomson is brilliant in the role of Frederick Banting. The supporting cast is full of stellar performers and the writing is superb. An all-around top-notch Canadian production!

A film created on shame and false events regarding the discovery of insulin. So, if you are a diabetic and you're still alive, you should know who saved you, namely Prof. Dr. N.C. Paulescu ! You have no shame?! Insulin is discovered by N. C. Paulescu. This movie teaches people a lie ... propaganda distorts the history of medicine. How can you make movies like this when N.C. Paulescu is responsible for saving tens of millions of people from certain death.

The discovery of insulin by NC Paulescu is not stolen, is suppressed. Well, I read the original article by Nicolae Paulescu and I can say with certainty that he is the discoverer of insulin. I do not know how many actually bothered to compare the articles of Paulescu and Banting's ... but I did it. Not to mention the date of publication of the two articles.

I saw this telemovie some years ago on Australian TV and thought it was excellent - it is well acted, beautifully produced and quite fascinating in its content. The passion and determination of the researchers to find a treatment for Type 1 diabetes was very moving, and the story of the little girl who was literally at death's door brings home powerfully just what a serious disease Type 1 diabetes is, and what a miracle the discovery of insulin was for all diabetics.

It is also a powerful example of the good that animal experimentation did in this particular case, although I accept that much animal experimentation is totally unnecessary.

I have Type 1 diabetes myself, and in my opinion this movie is an extremely important one - in fact, I think it should be compulsory viewing for all newly-diagnosed Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetics.

Why, oh why is this film not available on DVD??? Please, CBC, please re-release it! There must be a demand for it, and you could promote it through national and state diabetic associations world-wide.
