A determined physician battles a dangerous plague, class prejudice and even romantic confusion - all in one movie! The distinguished Jean Hersholt plays Dr. Christian - a role he performed throughout the popular six-film series. This time around, Christian struggles to contain a deadly infectious outbreak in down-trodden Squatter's Town, but his pleas for aid are useless in a community overrun with class prejudice. When he approaches a wealthy governess for help building houses for the poor, she interprets his proposition as a marriage proposal. So much confusion, so little time! (1940)
