Men in Black
A TONIC for the BLUES!
Directed by Ray McCarey
Produced by Columbia Pictures
A frenetic, good-natured slapstick comedy where three bumbling doctors wreak havoc in a hospital through physical gags and absurd situations.
The stooges are three doctors who graduated medical school by being in it for too many years. They come across such problems as an overly chirpy nurse, a mental patient, and a combination to a safe swallowed by the hospital superintendent in the course of their attempt to get through the day.
