Update: This is Maurice Cass and if you pay attention, you can see the lights reflecting off his bald head.

Our enigmatic chap is wearing a bow tie in this mystery movie, which comes from the request line. (Yes, we do take requests, but sometimes there’s a delay in locating a copy. The Brain Trust has arcane tastes.)

And for Tuesday, we have this mystery gent.

Please congratulate Tim Doherty, Stanhope1929 and Howard Mandelbaum for identifying Monday’s mystery guest.

  40. As for ‘faceless man’ the easy guess would be William Lundigan. Although I wish it were Archie Twitchell because I love his name so much and the line ‘ As long as the lady is paying for it, why not take the Vicuna?’.

  41. For Friday we have Edwin Max, too disoriented to adjust his hat. And, oh yeah, that William Lundigan guy. With Maurice Cass on Monday and Douglas Spencer on Tuesday, they round out Follow Me Quietly (1949).
