Prepare for surgery: you'll wake up a different person...

Confused or distorted identity is a common cinematic theme - one that finds expression through a range of interpretation. I remember being appalled when forced to watch Face/Off a couple of years ago. Les Yeux sans visage gave me an unusual experience. All the trappings of a classic B grade, yet with strong cinematic values. We have obsessed doctors with questionable ethics, nightime activities at the old crypt, hidden chambers and goulishly indulgent attention to detail.
