âTHE BEAUTY RACKET EXPOSED!â
Synopsis
The philandering Dr. Silas Brenton is fired from his position at a large hospital and given 24 hours to vacate the state. He sets himself up in Chicago as a "prestigious" plastic surgeon to the stars. However, Brenton's silver tongue can't cover up his dubious methods, and an investigation into his practice is launched by the examining board of plastic surgeons. A delirious film Ă clef based on the loathsome career of Henry J. Schireson, the self-styled âKing of Quacksâ.
