Woman on the Run (1950)
Steven Geray: Dr. Hohler
Quotes
-
Eleanor Johnson : [concerned about her husband's heart condition, which she knew nothing about] Is his heart really that bad, doctor?
Dr. Hohler : Frank's condition isn't any worse than tons of men that strain their hearts running in track meets in the misguided belief that they were building up their bodies.
-
Dr. Hohler : For the past year your husband has had hypertension that complicates matters.
Eleanor Johnson : Hypertension? What causes that?
Dr. Hohler : Well, I'm not sure. My guess is overwork, unhappiness, anxiety. But you know more about it than I do.
Eleanor Johnson : Why should I?
Dr. Hohler : But naturally, you must know about his troubles. I'm only his doctor,
Eleanor Johnson : Oh, yes, I'm that bitter, selfish, vicious wife. The cause of his unhappiness. The cause of his failure. Is that what he told you? Is that what he tells everyone?
Dr. Hohler : Frank didn't discuss his private life with me, nor do I care to hear it from you. I shall explain his condition to you, and that's all.
