Le saviez-vous

Daniel Booth: To become fully qualified needs years of hard work.
Thomas Stone: I'm used to that.
Daniel Booth: Needs money too.
Thomas Stone: I've a little saved up. I could get a job.
Daniel Booth: It's not a correspondence course - you can't learn osteopathy in your spare time. We'll drive you - we'll make no allowances for you... .

Healing Hands
Despite the title (the original novel was called 'The Persistent Warrior') this is a fanciful romantic melodrama about an osteopath rather than a comedy about a gardener.
Rugged hero Robert Beatty is cast somewhat against type achieving a similarly unorthodox career arc to Tyrone Power in the same year's 'Nightmare Alley', his rise in society resulting in his path crossing that of shoulder-padded high maintenance minx Nova Pilbeam, who attempts to come between him and loyal wife Carol Raye.
(Seeing this film over seventy years later, with the benefit of hindsight it is bizarre to realise that Miss Raye is still with us at 97, while Brefni O'Rourke - who plays the coroner who regards osteopaths as little more than witch doctors - died before the film was even released!)
