Internes Can’t Take Money (1937)

The first filmed version of the Dr. Kildare character, this story centers on an ex-con, played by Barbara Stanwyck, who searches for the young daughter whom she lost track of while she was in jail. Babs is incredible in portraying the desperation of the mother’s predicament, her worthless bank robbing husband dead and the only person who might know the location of her daughter is an unscrupulous gangster. Joel McCrea is likable as Kildare and the two of them play well off each other.
