False Faces

Silas Brenton is an unscrupulous doctor, overcharging his unsuspecting patients. When his ill-gotten gains are discovered by the Board of Review, he is barred from practicing in New York. He travels to California, where he sets himself up as a plastic surgeon to the rich and famous...despite his lack of qualifications. Brenton gives washed-up actresses "face lifts" that lead to paralysis. Amid outcry, he agrees to fix the crippled legs of the wealthy Mrs. Finn in an attempt to save his reputation. But instead the woman's legs must be amputated after the botched operation. Now the crooked doctor who has brought suffering to so many is being hunted by the police...as well as the broken Mrs. Finn, who won't rest until Brenton dies at her hands...
