The plot has strong parallels with the 1939 Bette Davis film "Dark Victory," though this film is based on a story, the other on a play. In both, a woman is gravely ill; she and her doctor fall in love; she learns he has not been totally open with her regarding the seriousness of her condition so that she turns on him and pursues a wild and reckless life; she eventually comes to her senses and returns to her loving doctor to spend with him whatever time she has left.
