Angie Dickinson, Robert Duvall, Gregory Peck, Tony Curtis
Dr. Josiah Newman runs the psychiatric unit of a U.S. Military Hospital during WWII. Short of help, Newman coerces newly-arrived neurotic orderly Jackson Leibowitz to work in his ward. Leibowitz's scheming and humor quickly turns life inside the ward upside down. Newman, while amused, tries to maintain a semblance of order. Newman's other recruit to the ward is nurse Lt. Francie Corum. Corum is at first shocked by what she sees in the ward, but admires the compassionate and effective way that Newman deals with each of his patients. Together Newman and Corum help a variety of patients with war related psychological traumas while they themselves struggle with the dilemma of healing these soldiers so they can be sent back into battle to face possible death.—E.W.
