Barbara Stanwyck gives a passionate performance in this insightful drama about an idealistic nurse who cares tenderly for some young patients. Ben Lyon is droll as a bootlegger smitten with her.
Joan Blondell brings welcome comic relief as her wisecracking co-worker, and Clark Gable plays a villain with the fire and bravado that helped make him a star. A low-key, yet impactful gem.
