It makes the midwest look like the moon. Oh man, Eyes Without a Face is amazing. I just saw it last week. Great points about the landscape–I wish I’d mentioned that.

He both produced and directed the film and plays the ghoulish spectral visitor that torments Mary throughout the film. The American landscape has never looked so depressed and lifeless, and it leaves one with the sense that the real world is less alive than the gloomy carnivalesque afterlife the spectres inhabit.

It's almost as if Mary finds her self and who she "is", in death. Still, any social or religious themes are ever so slightly hinted. It's hard to get a real feel for the film, and as a result, it deserves multiple viewings. I highly recommend this film and the French film, Eyes Without a Face. They have such striking comparisons and both classics are beautiful in every approach. I thought the acting was also fairly substandard. For the time, although wooden, still felt fitting and i enjoyed the performances. Every time I watch this film I get the creeps. It’s almost as if Mary finds her self and who she “is”, in death.
