Lora Hart manages to land a job in a hospital as a trainee nurse. Upon completion of her training she goes to work as a night nurse for two small children who seem to be very sick, though something much more sinister is going on.
Directed by William A. Wellman, Night Nurse leans on a strong ensemble — Barbara Stanwyck, Ben Lyon, Joan Blondell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1931.
