What happens
The Medicine Man is a 1930 American pre-Code comedy drama film directed by Scott Pembroke, released by Tiffany Pictures, and starring Jack Benny, Betty Bronson, and Eva Novak. This was an early role for Jack Benny. After talking pictures took over the silent film, vaudeville died, and Benny and many other comedians went to work in motion pictures. The film was adapted from a play by Elliot Lester. A print of The Medicine Man is preserved in the Library of Congress. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
