Another Film Noir classic!
Directed by Steve Sekely (Day Of The Triffids), Hollow Triumph (which has an alternative title The Scar) stars Paul Henreid (Casablanca, The Conspirators) as Johnny Muller, a thief whose casino raid has gone wrong. Only he and Marcy, played by Herbert Rudley (Brewster's Millions) escape. Soon Marcy ends up shot in the street and Johnny needs to escape. He is being pursued by the police and the casino owners.
Out on the street Johnny is mistaken for a psychiatrist, Dr. Bartok. He visits his office where the secretary - Joan Bennett (Scarlet Street) - also mistakes Johnny for her boss, until she notices that the scar on her "boss's" cheek is missing. Johnny decides to replicates the scar but manages to put the scar on the wrong side of his face. Does it matter? Do people really look at other people's faces? Will the scar give him away? Is he marked for death?
