Live or Die 1979

Directed by Larry Yust

This program depicts the lives of Joe who was overweight, stressed and a lover of high fat, high cholesterol foods, and Ann who was a workaholic smoker. Both have died at 47 and, through realistically staged autopsies, the pathologists explain why. The program stresses that we are all responsible for our own health, and the life choices we make can, to a large degree, control our life span.
