STCM: The Return Of Doctor X (1939)


It's a "Jiminy Christmas" moment uttered by the frustrated reporter Walter Garrett (Wayne Morris), who also utters "you don't have to treat me like the forgotten man," which seems to tie it in nicely as with The Man Who Wasn't There, whose main character Ed Crain (Billy Bob Thorton) is certainly treated as such!  What makes this Doctor X film so fun is that is an "earlyish" Bogart film, and certainly marks one of his rare appearances in a horror film.  He's pretty damn creepy in the role of Marshall Quesne.  It just love the old stuff!!
