Assassin of Youth (1938)

Dorothy Vaughan: Mrs. Mary Barry

Quotes 

• Doctor : What has your family physician told you, Mrs Barry?

  Mrs. Mary Barry : That it's the usual nervous condition of a young girl. But there's something else Doctor. I know it. And I want the truth.

  Doctor : Very well, Mrs Barry. Your daughter is a psychopathic case. She is on the verge of insanity. She has marked systems of drug addiction and I strongly believe she has been using marijuana.

  Mrs. Mary Barry : What's that?

  Doctor : A cigarette made out of a narcotic weed.

  Mrs. Mary Barry : Where would she get anything like that?

  Doctor : It's easy enough to obtain. Your daughter is the fourth case I have examined today. All young people with similar symptoms.

  Mrs. Mary Barry : [Tearfully]  What will happen to her, Doctor? She'll get well, won't she?

  Doctor : With proper care, we MAY be able to help her. I'll send you a competent nurse. In the meantime, if you note any changes, call me immediately. Good day, Mrs Barry.
