Dr. Kildare – Das Geheimnis (1939)
Der im Rollstuhl sitzende Dr. Leonard Gillespie forscht zusammen mit seinem jungen Assistenten Dr. Kildare im Blair General Hospital in New York an einer Heilung für die Lungenentzündung. Besonders Dr. Gillespie, der meint nur noch wenig Zeit zu haben, treibt das Projekt voran und überarbeitet sich dabei. Da auch eingestreute kurze Schlafpausen nicht helfen, kollabiert er eines Tages und muss mit Adrenalin behandelt werden. Zudem bittet Paul Messenger, einer der reichsten Amerikaner, Dr. Gillespie, seine Tochter Nancy zu untersuchen. Diese verhält sich nach Meinung ihres Vaters ungewöhnlich...
