For the Slough film festival-- does anyone know the name of this fifties b-movie?: Man lives through horrific fire where his face becomes disfigured beyond recognition...burned body of another man is found in fire...disfigured man uses this opportunity to disappear, pretending to be dead man found in fire...leaves everything behind, wife & kids, etc...eventually is arrested and with his true identity still unknown, is charged with his own murder...he goes on trial for killing "himself", even his wife testifies against him...is found guilty and sentenced to die on the gallows. And it actually ends with his execution! Not a glimmer of hope in sight, just pure misery from beginning to end.
If anyone knows the name, i'm trying to locate this piece of happiness, maybe propose a musical version...
