Description
Michael Redgrave gives a striking performance as a distinguished surgeon fighting against the impersonalisation of progress in this engrossing medical drama from director Brian Desmond Hurst. Also featuring Niall MacGinnis, Tony Britton, Ian Bannen and Vanessa Redgrave in her film debut, Behind the Mask is featured here as a brand-new High Definition remaster from original film elements in its original theatrical aspect ratio.
Backroom rivalry at the Graftondale Royal Hospital surgical unit is unspoken but self-evident. Sir Arthur Gray, a staunch traditionalist, is determined to keep things going his way in spite of his rival’s ambitions to “turn the hospital into a laboratory”. Then, while carrying out a delicate heart operation, Sir Arthur has a momentary blackout.
