X : THE MAN WITH THE X-RAY EYES - Les Baxter - "The Party" (1963)

Legacy, travesty, It all happened in Ray Milland's award-winning career. He was a truly fine actor, and is perfect in the role of Dr. Xavier in this movie. 10 years later, he's sharing a body with Rosey Grier and gets stuck in "Frogs." Not a very pretty picture, but in this film & this scene in particular, he does a fantastic job of mentally going from being a doctor to thinking like a 13 year old kid, when he suddenly realizes he can see through all the girl's clothes. The smoking sounds of Les Baxter keep the party rolling in the background. Great movie, period!!X-Ray Party

    My late father reminds me of Ray Milland.

    -- and a fine performance by Milland in his declining years can be found in THE ATTIC.
