People Will Talk

(1951)Directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz110 minComedy, Romance, Drama
“The picture that takes a new look at life!”

Dr. Noah Praetorius (Cary Grant) is a successful physician whose habits, from his bedside manner to the silent companion who follows him around, have made him a target among his colleagues. Deborah Higgins (Jeanne Crain) comes to him in despair, pregnant by a man killed in the service. Joseph L. Mankiewicz builds the film around what grows between them as Noah takes her in.
