"Eyes Without a Face" exhibits a notion of identity behind an unrecognizable face. It's funny that this one was released on the exact same year as "Psycho", seeing how they both have a woman driving at night with a secret in the backseat. Georges Franju's film is meticulously shot, purposefully avoiding a frame that could reveal that "nonface" too early in the game. The suspense is subtle, organic, never once feeling the need to drag you with it.
