A.J. Cronin's Vigil in the Night, the 1940 George Stevens medical hospital doctor nurse romantic melodrama ("The author of 'The Citadel' writes his greatest drama of the world's most dramatic profession!"; "From the New Best-Seller by A.J. Cronn"; "The author of 'The Citadel' Reveals the Intimate Secrets of a Private Nurse in a drama more searching and absorbing that his first great success"; "-- the story of two sisters and a doctor who braved a cloistered code to find the love their spartan calling would deny them... Played by three great stars with a brilliance that makes this the first great human drama of the year."; "Produced and Directed by the man who made 'Gunga Din'"; "The world-famous author of 'The Citadel' bares the heartache and despair of women the world calls callous in a story even more searching and absorbing than his first great success - made trebly vivid and exciting by three brilliant stars."; "From a brilliant new novel by A.J. Cronin"; "A Doctor Tells the intimate secrets of a private nurse"; "The first authentic, 'inside' revelation of the cloistered, code-bound world of woman's most intimate profession - probing deeply and dramatically the souls of those bitter women who know men too well, yet must somehow find love in the midst of terror, toil and disillusionment"; a complicated story of a nurse who overcomes many obstacles, but ends up being a great credit to her profession!) starring Carole Lombard, Brian Aherne, Anne Shirley, Julien Mitchell, Robert Coote, Brenda Forbes, and Peter Cushing. Note that A.J. Cronin was a doctor who had health problems in 1930. He wrote a book called "Hatter's Castle" in 1931, and it was so successful that he stopped practicing medicine and wrote a series of books, all centering around doctors, including "The Citadel" and "Keys of the Kingdom", all of which were made into movies!
