James Dunn is the head doctor in 'Emergency Hospital', and there are the usual assortment of comic switchboard operators, Vince Barnett as the alleged comic relief -- despite is reputation as a practical joker, I don't find his screen appearances funny -- and soap opera, in the person of Gloria Stuart, who shows up unconscious but beautiful, wakes to apparent amnesia, and turns out to be the central story.
Its short length proclaims this a B movie, but this is Paramount, so there are lots of recognizable performers, including Jane Darwell as a nurse with no lines, Billy Gilbert doing his sneezing routine, and David Manners as the young doctor who wants to be a surgeon. Some good, cynical lines proclai this a pre-code, and co-directors Alexander Hall and George Somnes keep this one rolling along.
