Only the person putting pills in their own mouth can "make them become an addict". Modern pilots like my friend who flew 13 years in the air force are given a pill in the morning an a pill at night every day they fly. Taking them that many years he did not become addicted.

I think the Dr who stopped at the table where Shakespeare and Ivy were spilled the beans… that sounded like Bob had Lymphoma. He was most likely going to die quickly. The Flight Surgeon knew of the medical condition and pulled him in to go to the hospital. Possibly did some tests that day Bob got the note to report to the surgeon. Can’t have him flying a plane if about to be so weak with white blood cells low.

Directed by Mia Farrow's dad, starring Bob Cummings, costumes by Edith Head, screenplay by Ayn Rand -- I don't care what it's about, I'm all in!
Love Ann Rand! She was sooooo right…
Like Lisbeth. Great with Dan Duryea.

I really like Robert Cummings I’m happy I found your channel. There are so many great old movies, it’s nice to find a rare one, like this thanks.
I certainly have a notion to second THAT emotion !
Film debut for Lizbeth. She played very well. Thank you DB
My sentiments exactly !
Thank you for this!!! I have been waiting for years to see this again!
Such good, funny, snappy writing!
Thankyou 🎉
Cummings was a real-life pilot: in the '50s his feelgood doctor made him an amphetamine addict for the rest of his life.

Great movie! Love it
A fun movie that doesn't doesn't disregard the heroics of our servicemen. Well done!
I missed something. Why did he go to the hospital and what did he die of?
Hello! Can anybody answer my question?

Good flick, very cool to know Ayn Rand wrote this (I'm sure she did not have total Liberty though).
"total Liberty"?

I am very familiar w/ Ayn Rand's work, this is not in line w/ her attitude about fiction.
