The Knick


The Leopard's current favorite show is Steven Soderbergh's The Knick. Set in 1900s New York, it’s a about a cutting edge hospital called The Knickerbocker which was one of the first to practice then – new surgical procedures. The story is loosely based on an actual place. Stars Clive Owen as the addicted and alcoholic head surgeon. Don’t want to give away anything else away, but the cast is excellent and the entire production – cinematography, costumes and the extraordinary electronic score by Cliff Martinez are all flawless - and it never ceases to surprise. Highly recommended.
