- Quotes
Fred Rowan, aka Fred Gilbert: [opening narration] Hello, everybody, my name is Richard Conte. In the picture you're about to see, I play the part of Doctor Gilbert, an intern at Bellevue Hospital. With the permission of the City Authorities, all the facilities of Bellevue Hospital, located in the heart of New York City, were made available to the film production crew. The story itself is completely fictional, and did not actually happen in Bellevue Hospital or in New York City. During our stay at Bellevue, in making this picture, we saw the real Bellevue at work - in its wards, its clinics and research laboratories. And we came to know the unrivalled opportunities, offered by this great teaching centre, to young students of all races, colours and creeds in advancing in their chosen profession of medicine. On this same site, will rise during the next ten years, the new buildings of Bellevue, already planned and begun. And they will form the world's greatest and most complete medical research and teaching centre. To the old and the coming new Bellevue and on behalf of our entire company, we salute the magnificent, professional skill and highest devotion to duty known throughout the world as the mark of each of Bellevue's thirteen hundred doctors and eleven hundred nurses.
