The picture above is a scene from the 1964 film The Pink Panther in which Jeffries had a minor role.  In this scene she dances seductively while singing the song “Meglio Stasera (It Had Better Be Tonight).”  It is a great scene and Jeffries looks absolutely gorgeous.

You can view a YouTube clip of Jeffries singing “Meglio Stasera” in The Pink Panther (1964) here.
