Movie Haiku:Medical student develops a lucrative practice doing extreme plastic surgery. Soska Sisters want to address body image, plastic surgery, and medical ethics, plus gender roles & male domination. But while Isabelle is very good as “Mary,” cheesy production values and terrible acting by her male co-stars doom her efforts. Not seen by Rich.
