A Laughing Matter
"A Laughing Matter" tells the true story of Horace Wells, a Hartford,
Connecticut dentist who, in 1844, discovered anesthesia using nitrous oxide,
also known as laughing gas. After being robbed of his discovery by a friend,
we follow Horace to his tragic end, just as he is being hailed "The Father of
Anesthesia" in France. It is a story of the tragic results of greed.
