1:32:00
If that gets around in our profession,
we get the bird.
1:32:04
So I says to my partner,
" Let's quit this guy. He's nuts!"
1:32:07
I'm very fond of Clarissa.
She's a nice horse.
1:32:10
And when he started
feeding her doughnuts,
1:32:14
I yelled down to him,
" Mind what you're doing down there."
1:32:16
I wouldn't mind, sir, but Clara
won't eat nothin' but doughnuts now.
1:32:20
If the court pleases,
I call upon Dr Emil Von Hallor,
1:32:25
if he'll give us his opinion.
1:32:28
He is the eminent psychiatrist,
a great authority on the subject.
1:32:30
He's here on a lecture tour
and has volunteered his services.
1:32:35
- Dr Von Hallor.
- Dr Von Hallor.
1:32:38
Do you swear the testimony you give
before this court
1:32:45
shall be the truth
and nothing but the truth?
1:32:48
- Name?
- Emil Von Hallor.
1:32:50
Take the stand.
1:32:52
Dr Von Hallor, would you tell the court
what your opinion is of this case?
1:32:57
This is purely a case
of manic depression.
1:33:01
A case of this kind, patients sometimes
go on for years before being detected.
1:33:04
You remember, in my last book,
1:33:10
there were some very fine examples,
especially the young nobleman.
1:33:12
Yes, Dr Von Hallor. Very interesting.
1:33:17
It reminds me very much of this one.
1:33:20
It takes so long to detect them,
1:33:23
because their mood changes
so often and so quickly.
1:33:25
Now, Your Honour, may I show you?
May I use the chart?
1:33:29
By all means.
1:33:32
Below here,
they are extremely depressed,
1:33:40
melancholy, impossible to live with
and often become violent.
1:33:43
From this mood, the manic depressive
might gradually change
1:33:48
until they reach this state.
1:33:55
Here is lucidity. Here they are normal,
as normal as you or I.
1:33:59
Assuming, of course,
that we are normal.
