There is something about women that requires them to cry now and then for their well-being. Do not ask me what it is. Viewing this movie periodically seems to accomplish that purpose.
It evidently was the custom to withhold information from each other and be stoic about medical problems. If you tried that today, you would be sued, and there would be no movie.
However, if this one works for her, then you are ready for the big time, "Now Voyager (1942)" where they say, "Don't ask for the moon--we have the stars."
Of course, if you just like stoic doctors, then watch "People Will Talk (1951)" with Cary Grant.
