1:36:00
he throws us in a room
and locks the door, see?
1:36:02
If a thing like that gets around
in our profession, we get the bird, see?
1:36:05
So l says to my partner,
"Let's quit this guy. He's nuts!"
1:36:08
I'm very fond of Clarissa.
She's a nice horse.
1:36:12
And when this bloke here
started feeding her donuts...
1:36:14
l yelled down to him,
"Mind what you're doing down there."
1:36:18
l wouldn't mind, sir, but Clara
won't eat nothin' but donuts now.
1:36:23
And now, if the court pleases,
l shall call upon Dr. Emil Von Hallor...
1:36:26
if he'll be good enough
to give us his opinion.
1:36:29
Dr. Von Hallor
is the eminent Austrian psychiatrist...
1:36:31
probably the greatest authority
on the subject in the world.
1:36:33
At present, he's in this country
on a lecture tour...
1:36:35
and has graciously
volunteered his services.
1:36:43
Do you swear the testimony you give
in the cause now before this court...
1:36:46
shall be the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth?
1:36:48
- State your right name, please.
- Emil Von Hallor.
1:36:51
Take the stand.
1:36:56
Dr. Von Hallor, would you tell the court
what your opinion is of this case?
1:37:01
This is purely a case
of manic depression.
1:37:04
A case of this kind,
patients sometimes go on for years...
1:37:08
before being detected.
1:37:10
You remember, Dr. Fosdick,
in my last book...
1:37:12
there were some very fine examples,
especially the young nobleman.
1:37:16
- You remember?
- Yes, Dr. Von Hallor. Very interesting.
1:37:20
It reminds me very much of this one.
1:37:24
It takes so long to detect them...
1:37:26
because their mood
changes so often and so quickly.
1:37:30
Now, Your Honor, may l show you?
May I use the chart?
1:37:34
By all means.
1:37:41
Below here,
they are extremely depressed...
1:37:45
melancholy, impossible to live with
and often become violent.
1:37:51
From this mood...
1:37:53
the manic depressive
might gradually change...
1:37:57
until they reach this state.
