Fingers at the Window (1942)

In the medical "profession," the nickname for a doctor's diploma is simply . . .

[7/10 · 27 October 2020]

. . . "A License to Kill." (This is why doctors think they can play the role of James Bond against everyone else.) Whereas bakers' errors are known as oval donuts and butchers' goofs are referred to as missing fingers, a doctor's mistakes are merely dismissed as unlucky stiffs, with such callous phrases as "He died on the operating table" and "Nothing could have saved her." FINGERS AT THE WINDOW traces the career of one such nefarious serial killer, the Sociopath Dr. Ferrari. When this homicidal shrink is not busy manipulating his sickest patients into executing his assassination targets with hatchets, he's roaming the night wards doling out lethal injections himself. FINGERS suggests that EVERY certified physician MUST be surrounded by armed detectives at all times, 24/7/365. So-called "Medical Boards" are notorious for NOT revoking the mountains of fill-in-the-blank Death Warrants every doctor is graced with upon graduation. Coupled with each doc's one-size-fits-all hunting license, it's always open season upon normal people. If grouse and trout are protected by game wardens, humans need to have some sort of bodyguards, too!
