Viewing Notes

Another pre-code thanks to Turner Classics: Doctor X, released in 1932. It also stars Lionel Atwill as Dr. Xavier (waaaaaaaay before the X-men). And the delicious Fay Wray in a supporting role (again). I dig how TCM themes its film schedule to feature movies from the same time period (related by cast). This one is bit more confusing than the others I’ve seen recently (eg. Mystery of the Wax Museum) and I’m not fond of the colorization. But not a bad film.
