Eyes Without a Face
Directed by Georges Franju
- Eric BakkeNovember 5, 2024An eerie, captivating story with a haunting atmosphere, but suffers from old-movie pacing. Is it really necessary to devote an entire scene to walking up a super long staircase? I get that it's a product of its time, but I still struggle with the leisurely editing style of 1960s cinema.
