Eyes Without a Face (Les Yeux Sans Visage)
Directed by Georges Franju
1960
France
★ 5.8 editorial score
Viewers fainted at its first festival screenings and horror has been quietly borrowing from it ever since: a surgeon keeps trying to give his daughter a face, and her mask is unforgettable.
“Films that aren’t easily defined for one type of audience or another are often orphaned, and Eyes Without A Face is a classic anomaly, out of step with its time (and any other), with mysteries that lingered long enough for critics finally to be intoxicated by them.”
