A Woman's Face

The childhood burning that had scarred the face of Anna Holm (Joan Crawford) had also hardened her soul, as she matured into a calculating grifter. While trying to run a blackmail on a cheating wife, she discovers that the wronged spouse (Melvyn Douglas) is also a sympathetic plastic surgeon. Though his treatments render her a beauty, will it be enough to have her resist the entreaties of her criminal cronies to kill a child for an inheritance? Dark melodrama co-stars Conrad Veidt, Reginald Owen, Marjorie Main, Donald Meek; George Cukor directs. 106 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, French.
