Breath of a Child (1958)

Oliver Cliff: Dr. Ronald Kincaid

Quotes 

• Dan Mathews : Now, let me have that again, Doc.

  Dr. Ronald Kincaid : Mrs. Hoffman just told me. The child was choking, and a young sailor got it to breathing again. To do it, he breathed in the baby's mouth.

  Dan Mathews : Well - go on, go on, go on!

  Dr. Ronald Kincaid : I'm almost sure the child has epidemic meningitis. It's highly contagious. I've just inoculated Mrs. Hoffman.

  Dan Mathews : You say the sailor breathed into the kid's mouth. Where's the sailor now?

  Dr. Ronald Kincaid : Mrs. Hoffman doesn't know. She doesn't even know his name.

  Dan Mathews : C'mon, Doc - tick it off for me fast!

  Dr. Ronald Kincaid : Well, the sailor drove up for gas, he saw the trouble and he got the child breathing again. Then, he drove off without even giving his name.

  Dan Mathews : What are his chances?

  Dr. Ronald Kincaid : Unless he receives inoculation within a matter of hours, he has no chance at all.
