EYES WITHOUT A FACE
Georges Franju (France) 1960 - 1.45pm
From the writers of VERTIGO and LES DIABOLIQUES, EYES is as defining and influential as the films released that same year: PSYCHO and PEEPING TOM. A surgically precise and surreal exercise in terror that informed Almodovar's recent THE SKIN I LIVE IN, it still shocks today.
“Sharp as a scalpel, soft as a caress, this is a weird masterwork.” Empire
