Item:305062749059Hands Of A Stranger (1962) Paul Lukather, Joan Harvey, James Noah, Irish McCalla. This was the final film of Irish McCalla and Joan Harvey. An car accident leaves Paris' hands mangled beyond repair. All that is known about the provider of the transplanted hands is that he was a murder victim. Hands Of A Stranger (1962) Psychological thriller Starring Paul Lukather, Joan Harvey, James Stapleton, Irish McCalla, Barry Gordon Directoed by Newt Arnold A talented concert pianist loses his hands in a car crash, but a surgeon gives him new ones. However, the experimental medical procedure goes awry when the new hands drive the pianist mad. Virtuoso pianist, Vernon Paris (James Noah) is about to taste the rewards of his hard work, when disaster strikes! An car accident leaves Paris' hands mangled beyond repair. Thankfully, gifted surgeon, Dr. Gil Harding (Paul Lukather) decides to try a new procedure to replace Paris' hands with a donor pair. All that is known about the provider of the transplanted hands is that he was a murder victim. The operation is a success, and Vernon's recovery goes amazingly well, at least physically. Since no one told him that his hands were lost, Paris was under the assumption that he'd only "broken" them. The truth comes as a bit of a shock. Then, just as he's trying, without much luck, to adjust to his new hands, something else occurs. Something strange and maniacal! His hands are too strong for him, and he can't manage them, and things go awry in the extreme. We never get to know whose hands they were, but they are too strong for his own good, and by his psychological liability in the deep personal crisis of having lost all his active life and everything he lived for, he can't control them as his impulses drive him over the edge. "Being from a family of musicians, and a flutist myself, I understood all too well the care that Vernon took of his hands, and the devastation he must have felt." Essentially a remake of The Hands of Orlac (1924/1960) and the Peter Lorre classic, Mad Love (1935). This was the final film of Irish McCalla and Joan Harvey.
