About This Movie

So, 'The Doctor Prefers Sailors' is this quirky comedy from '81 that dives into the chaotic life of a hotel doctor. The pacing is a bit all over the place, capturing that frantic energy of a farce. You’ve got a man who just can’t seem to go through with his suicide attempts - dark, right? And then there are these window washers who accidentally witness a murder, adding to the ridiculousness. The performances are pretty lively, keeping the tone light even when the subject matter dips into the absurd. It’s a film that mixes slapstick with some sharp humor, and you can’t help but appreciate the practical effects they use, which give it a certain charm.
