The Face (1966)
4/10
The Face
30 December 2011
Made in the same year as THE TRAM, starring Kieslowski and by someone who I presume was a classmate.

An artist suddenly goes bananas and trashes all his self-portraits and mirrors.

It looks slicker than The Tram but reeks much more of "student film" with its avant-garde soundtrack and deliberately enigmatic action.

The kind of thing that makes you go, "Yes, yes, I get it already."

Recommended only as a curiosity.

Available on the Criterion release of the Three Colors trilogy.
