Featured review
pre-war story of rising up after the fall
This one starts out as a comedic, swashbuckling look at medical doctors. John Beal and Phillip Huston give each other the business, even when one is going under the knife. Beal is Dr. Stanton Junior, who flies around in his own airplane, and was running around with his friend's wife. Things happen pretty abruptly, in this RKO shortie, when things take a turn for the worse, and he decides to move and start over again. Billy Gilbert is in here as a tramp. He made a career out of sneezing and stuttering. Worked with the greats. In this story, Stanton tries to run away from his background and the scandal, but it all catches up with him. Again and again he tries to just work at his plain old day job, but he keeps getting put in situations that make the hero rise to the occasion. A young Joan Fontaine is Nurse Doris, who eggs him on, and forces the issue. Directed by Lew Landers.... story by Alice Curtis. It's predictable, but pretty good. This version does not seem to be related to the two prior versions from 1915 and 1925.
