Oh my . . . IMDB doesn't "show us something interesting", the way Truman Bradley did each week.
Well, I guess good old Truman Brewster (his younger brother) will have to fix that!
Mr. Bradley starts with a wonderful lecture about the wonders of "lenses", which have given us telescopes, microscopes, movies projectors, and all the innovations that require the refraction of radiated energy.
But the story involves a police lab technician played by Vincent Price and the mysterious death of famous scientist who was shot in laboratory. Prince has a personal connection with the murdered man's beautiful wife.
Price examines an unusual device the victim has constructed in his lab, an arrangement of lenses which are aligned with a large mirror on the wall. When the room is dark, Price sees a ghostly motionless image in the mirror — but it vanishes when his assistant comes into the room and turns on the light.
Price calls in a team of optical experts to analyze the strange effect, but they're puzzled by it.
Prince cracks the puzzle when he determines that a series of round objects mounted on the wall opposite mirror are photographic recording — and one of them is a snapshot of the murdered man's beautiful wife standing behind him with gun aimed at the back of his head!
In Trueman Bradley's wrap up he informs up that camera now exist with can take pictures in near-total darkness.
A very cook episode, guys. _________________ ____________
