I loved watching this story of a newcomer to the EMT field and all the characters he meets along the way in a town with a large senior citizen population. We see his world through his relationships with his fellow driver, the police, the good and not-so-good folks in the medical field, and most importantly an elderly man sent to a senior citizen home against his will. My favorite character was The Jackal, played by David McCallum in a rare comedic turn. As usual, Mr. McCallum gives the role a real depth, as we see him weasel his way around the unsuspecting townies, but despite any hard-knocks ends up a lonesome survivor. This was a sweet movie, filled with excellent acting from newcomers and veterans alike.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
