Favourite bit When Bobby Burns is told he will never walk again! |
Trivia • Copyrighted October 3, 1932. • The 11th film in the series. • The name of the hospital is "Peaceful Valley". • In a 1936 newspaper article on stuntwomen, Betty Danko recalled filming a stunt for this film where she doubled for ZaSu Pitts (neither the film nor ZaSu are specifically named in the anecdote, but Betty's description clearly applies to a scene from this film): "I once had to fall, feet first, from a high window, holding a dummy policeman in my arms. When I started the jump, I had my arms around the dummy's neck, but when I landed I had him only by one knee. I tried to twist and let the dummy break my fall, but his feet were loaded and I lost my balance." |
