dr. kildare go home and make in 1940 and be a particularly interesting entry into the series . kildare and make a staff doctor and realize that his dad ( samuel s. hind ) be exhaust from keep up with his practice and want to help him . he take some doctor who can not find job and they start a clinic in one of kildare sr. practice area . the idea behind it be that everyone pay ten cent a week for medical care . this will keep the salary pay and support the work need on the ill people . also and the emphasis of the clinic be on prevention and stay healthy . this be health insurance today and which want everyone to stay healthy and not need medical facility . instead of a dime and though and it thousand per year . i do find that whole subject matter in 1940 fascinating . the next fascinating thing be that dr. gillespie go to watch a rare operation do by a brilliant black doctor ( jack carr ) . carr and a very well spoken actor and be uncredited in the film . this be a different kind of depiction of black than one be use to see in these old movie and and it similar to crash dive and where a black member of the submarine unit be the same a everyone else . these thing make dr. kildare go home a cut above and and the story move along with kildare and mary set the date . i love the scene between mary boyd ( alma kruger ) and dr. gillespie ( lionel barrymore ) the best . when he compliment her appearance and he say and you must have lose 15 pound . she say and i have gain eight . what do you want me to do that illegal . highly entertaining .
