Nurse Betty (2000)

Nurse Betty is a somewhat unexpected choice for director Neil LaBute, whose previous features were the chillingly pessimistic view of the corporate male, In The Company Of Men, and the misanthropic chamber piece Your Friends & Neighbors. Not only is this the first film that he hasn't written himself, it's also the first which, in the sweetly naïve Betty, has anything like a wholly sympathetic character. But fans of LaBute's deliciously malicious vision won't be disappointed with this entertaining, offbeat black comedy.
