Dr. Bock, the chief of medicine at a Manhattan hospital, is suicidal after the collapse of his personal life. When an intern is found dead in a hospital bed, it appears to Bock to be a case of unforgivable malpractice. Hours later, another doctor, who happens to be responsible for another case of malpractice, is found dead. Despondent, Bock finds himself drawn to Barbara, the daughter of a comatose missionary.
Editor's Verdict
"The only noted Christmas element is a 'Holiday Release,' which relates to marketing, not the narrative content. The plot focuses on malpractice, death, and a suicidal doctor within a hospital setting, showing no meaningful connection to Christmas in setting, plot, themes, or iconography."
