Doctor Bull
John Ford
USA 1933
79 min
V'14
In this entertaining declaration of love to the down-to-earth practical people among the doctors, small-town doctor Bulls has to fight almost alone against a wave of typhoid illnesses. With courage, stubbornness and a hint of sarcastic humor he wins the narrow-minded inhabitants of the small town over and at the same time triumphes over the provincial oligarch. And the nice widow – well we knew it anways! – stays with him in the end too.
