About The Doctor's Secret
Marriage to a despotic man is unbearable for Liliana Garson. After a violent argument with Garson, she leaves jewelry, a wedding ring, and a letter announcing her departure in the drawer of her husband's desk intending to run away with Hugo Paton with whom she is in love. But Hugo is killed in a car accident and feeling helpless Liliana returns home but she is offered a ray of hope from an unexpected source. Polish language version of the 1929 Ruth Chatterton vehicle "The Doctor's Secret".
Directed by Julius Lébl, The Doctor's Secret leans on a strong ensemble — Andula Sedláčková, Václav Vydra, Karel Jičínský — 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 drama titles of 1931.
