daft potboiler do not come much daft than this and but it a douglas sirk movie which make everything alright . except in this case it doesn not . base on a sanctimonious novel by the sanctimonious lloyd c douglas and ( he write the robe ) and and already film in 1935 with irene dunne and robert taylor and it get more uplift than a cantilever bra . rock hudson be the arrogant playboy who not only feel responsible for make jane wyman a widow but later be directly responsible for the accident in which she lose her sight . to make amends he take up medicine and become a great eye surgeon and restore it . ( no and it sin not quite that daft while he have plan to become a doctor before become an arrogant playboy ) . in between time and they fall in love . try a i might i can not quite find the redeem social commentary and critique of american more that be suppose to lie just below the surface of sirk film and ( this one isn not too deep ) . on the plus side rock hudson isn not half bad and ( i think i be rediscover him ) and and and of course and it look great and ( in sirk film people live in room the size of cathedral ) . nothing in this film match the best of his late work and even in soap opera term this be definitely daytime tv .
