Adam Curtis made a great documentary about Henrietta Lacks 10 years ago called "The Way of All Flesh."

I definitely recommend it: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8448974573505946013

Just finished watching it. The story is truly fascinating. I started off thinking "we have been lucky to find a case like hers". Then I realized that if her cells could practically survive anything, the odds of us finding it are not as bad as they seem.
