Eyes Without a Face / Les yeux sans visage (FR, 1960)

Pessimistic one-of-a-kind surgical-sci-fi-gothic-horror-crime-noir curio piece. It's worth a look, sure, but the retrospective hyperbole surrounding it proves to be a little overstated.

In terms of its economic good looks, it resembles other French films of the era (Last Year at Marienbad, Pickpocket).
