Les Yeux Sans Visage aka Eyes Without A Face (1960)
Directed by Georges Franju, based on a book by Jean Redon. It tells the tale of a plastic surgeon who is determined to perform a face transplant on his daughter, who is disfigured after an auto crash.
The film stars Pierre Brasseur and Alida Valli. The film is known for being about anguish... it is quieter mood than horror... more internal, more penetrating. It is horror in homeopathic doses.
The film is now considered a masterclass in post-modern horror with its direction and sense of mood.
