Night Nurse (1931)

★★★1/2

A young woman, Lora Hart, enlists to become a nurse at a downtown hospital. She applies to become a family nurse and watched over two young girls, but she finds out that these girls are sick and are forced to starve to death in a sinister scheme to murder them. Lora than seeks help from a bootlegger to stop Nick, the Chauffeur who wants the girls dead, from murdering the girls. I loved the plot and the pacing of the film but I felt like I was watching a soap opera at time. Still, it’s fun to watch for some of the comedic moments and Stanwyck’s performance.
