Facinating movie, right up my alley. Had to watch it twice to follow it. I also just loved the relationship between to two main characters.
Bill and Melinda have an extremely practical view of what they can do in the world. In one case there is Acute Diarrheal Illness that kills 3 million children per year in the 3rd world. There is no market since the famlies couldn't afford to buy the medication, but apparently the cure is very doable. http://www.gatesfoundation.org/ns/globalhealth/default.htm
