The previous episode of the Dr. Kildare series was the worst. "Dr. Kildare's Crisis" was a truly terrible film. Will "Dr. Kildare's Wedding Day" be yet another dreadful movie or will it mark the return of the series to its usual high quality standards?

Well, it IS a major improvement but also might shock you. On one hand, it has some wonderfully funny portions. The elevator bit is great and dialog such as the following are wonderful:

'....I'm not going to your place (even) if it's next to a nudist camp'.

'Six is too young to get married' 'The hillbillies DO'

On the other hand, midway through the film it becomes the darkest Kildare movie of them all....REAL dark. Have some Kleenex handy sort of dark! So, I do recommend you see it but also advise you to hold on--it's going to be a VERY bumpy ride. Overall, quite good and an odd combination of humor and depression!

By the way, Lionel Barrymore appears to really be playing piano at times in the film and he's also credited with a musical score in the credits. That's interesting.
