Saw this on TV in the late 1960’s, I think, on my grandparents’ small black & white TV, back when we kept having to adjust the rabbit-ears antenna to try to clear up the picture and sound enough to make out what was going on.  So I may not have even understood what was happening, but what I remember is a startled woman saying, “You think a boy . . . is hiding . . . inside his leg?!”  Then the doctor amputated the man’s leg (probably off-screen, but I had my hands over my eyes at that point and can’t be sure).  And then the man was using crutches to try to get to a podium to speak to an auditorium of people.  Everyone was silent, watching, and no one was helping him.  Very creepy scene.  It’s bothered me for 50 years, so I’d sure appreciate it if anyone out there happens to know about this one.
