HOLLOW TRIUMPH
Henry Mueller is convinced that he is better than everyone else, but is frustrated when he realizes that the rest of the world doesn't agree. He wants to become a doctor but doesn't have the patience, so instead pursues a life of petty crime. Upon his release from prison, Henry marries a trusting young woman for her money. Once she gets wise to the fact that the only person Henry loves is himself, she leaves him. And now it's just Henry and his put-upon friend Turk. But even Turk has his limits. He balks at murder...
Henry discovers that there is a wealthy, successful psychiatrist in town who appears to be his exact double, except for a scar on his face. Could Henry be clever enough to trade places with the doctor? Once Henry creates a scar on his own face, he is ready to try to become Dr. Viktor Bartok. Unfortunately, he first must first remove the real doctor. But how could he know where his deception would lead him, what it would cost him-and the people he would lose along the way?
This is the fifth in a new series of Film Noir Classics from Stark House Press. Hollow Triumph, also known as The Scar, was released in 1948 starring Paul Henreid and Joan Bennett.
