This Saturday on TNT Network, there is a movie about the life of Dr. Ben Carson, a world famous neurosurgeon that grew up in Detroit. One of the actors in the film, Geoffrey Beauchamp, is a former workmate of mine at Mobile ED. He has portrayed Abe Lincoln for many years, and some of you that go to plays at Meadowbrook may know him, especially from his work in A Christmas Carol. He once did work on the soap opera Ryans Hope.

In this film (as I understand it), he plays the role of Dr. Freeman, and the scene involves him and Carson (Cuba Gooding Jr.) walking down a hall in a hospital (filmed over on the east side). Geoff is tall, with dark brown hair and striking facial feature. In fact, when my mom first met him, she thought she saw the ghost of Lincoln.

They air this movie this Saturday at 8PM eastern. Enjoy!
