Through it, we intend to stress the influence his books and/or the films based on them had on many young generations who, under their shelter, chose a career in medicine. Prize-winning writer and PhD, in his works -formally adorned with his great talent for description and observation- he intermingles naturalism, conflicting passions, medical situations and social criticism. Beyond all discussion about his literary career and his repercussion on film, his influence on those who embraced Medicine following in the steps of his characters, many of whom were nothing more than a reflection of himself, is unquestionable.

SE: Thank you very much for allowing me to interview you today, it’s a real pleasure. I’ll just begin by asking you about your very earliest memory of the Theatre? PF: Well, thank you for coming, I’m very pleased to meet you. I think I told that I am aged ninety five, so I can go back a long time with my memories. One of the first things I remember about the theatre was when I was probably about fifteen or sixteen. In those days, when money was a bit short, we used to go to the theatre, to the gallery door and we used to hire a stool to put outside the gallery, in the street round the theatre and they charged six pence for the stool and then we formed a queue all round the theatre of these stools then when the time came for the gallery door to open we paid a shilling to go up, (mostly a shilling, some theatres might have charged a little more) but we charged up the gallery stairs right up to the top of the theatre and we didn’t have separate seats they were sort of semicircular benches all round the theatre, all round the gallery.

    ISSN electrónico: 1885-5210 DOI:https://doi.org/10.14201/rmc20211711724 THE CITADEL (1938) BY KING VIDOR: LIGHTS AND SHADOWS IN THE PRACTICE OF PROFESSIONALISM La ciudadela (1938) de King Vidor: Luces y sombras en el ejercicio de la profesionalidad Palmer José HERNÁNDEZ-YÉPEZ Facultad de Medicina Humana. Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener (Perú). Autor para correspondencia: Palmer José Hernández-Yépez. Correo electrónico: [email protected] Received 23 March 2020 Accepted 14 April 2020. Summary The Citadel (1938) by King Vidor, is a film that narrates the professional life of Dr. Andrew Manson, from his enthusiastic start as a recently graduated doctor in a mining town in Wales, where he works passionately in different cases regardless of the circumstances, until his arrival in London where he sees his purpose distorted as he enters the elite of the city. With the help of his wife Christine, he will try to regain the meaning of medicine. Throughout the film the thin line that divides the good exercise of professionalism is exhibited. For this reason, this paper reflects on medicine as a profession, its relationship with society, and highlights the importance of education in the humanities for strengthening ethical discernment in future health professionals. Keywords: professionalism; medical ethics, doctor-patient relationship. Resumen La ciudadela (1938) de King Vidor, es una película que narra la vida profesional del doctor Andrew Manson, desde su entusiasmado inicio como médico recién graduado en un pueblo minero en Gales, donde labora apasionadamente en diferentes casos sin importar las circunstancias, hasta su llegada a Londres donde ve distorsionado su propósito al adentrarse en la élite de la ciudad.
