Look at the quack doctors who make odd ball treatments and then sell them to an unsuspecting public. Here its radium pills which are suppose to make you feel peppier. It amazes me that anyone would give people radium to take when it clear that its bad for you, but thats the plot of the film. The film has Robert Livingston as a crusading doctor who has a radio show where he challenges the makers of the pills. They buy his time slot and to shot him up and then try to buy him to switch sides. Of course it doesn't work.Along the way he finds love. This is a good but unremarkable little film. It moves along at a good clip and keeps you interested to the end. I'm sure in a weeks time I'll have forgotten I've seen it but until then it wasn't a bad way to spend an hour
