What happens

Scotland Yard is a 1941 American crime drama film directed by Norman Foster and starring Nancy Kelly, Edmund Gwenn and John Loder about a fugitive whose visage has been altered with plastic surgery. It is also known by the alternative title Uncensored. It is a remake of the 1930 film of the same title, which was in turn based on a 1929 play Scotland Yard by Denison Clift. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Lewis Creber and Richard Day. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
