Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzThe film is a horror story in that it offers a vision of the American Dream turning ugly and wrong.
User Review - 10/10 by John SAn underated a near forgotton film. Peter Lorre isn't an insane lunatic or bumbling side kick,for once. Here he's a sympathatic immigrant to America,shunned by society because of his hideously burned face. He turns to a life a crime to makes ends meet,and falls in love with a blind girl. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. (If you can find it. )
User Review - 10/10 by Bruce BOne of the greatest 'B' films of all time, with an 'A' performance by Peter Lorie. This film hits on a handful of my favorite motifs: the immigrant experience, faces, masks, plastic surgery, criminality, blind insight, the list goes on. In the Face Behind The Mask director Robert Florey has concocted the perfect amalgam of Charlie Chaplan's "City Lights" and Fritz Lang's "M."
User Review - 8/10 by Ted WI'm not sure why this is dated 2003, it's 1941 and Lorre is outstanding prior to being completely typecast. Here he plays a kind immigrant forced into a life of crime, something he finds he has a real talent for, and finally finding redemption in an act of cruel vengeance.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan CFine low budget early Peter Lorre picture where he plays a watchmaker immigrant who's disfigured in a fire and then dons a creepy mask and sets out on a life of crime. The story then turns more poignant when the love of a good woman (a blind woman) makes him reconsider his criminal ways. It's kind of a gonzo crime melodrama that is at times more goofy in a not so good way than it is macabre in a good Tod Browning sort of way, but Lorre is great and immensely entertaining. Also, the film has some terrifically moody photography from Franz Planer, who'd later photograph classics like "Breakfast at Tiffany's," "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" and "The Caine Mutiny."
User Review - 6/10 by Scott RHungarian immigrant sincerely tries for the good life, but due to hardships is forced to compromise his values until he is reminded of them by a beautiful blind woman. It was good, but not great.
User Review - 6/10 by Greg WThe film is a horror story in that it offers a vision of the American Dream turning ugly and wrong.year s/b 1941 first cycle noir not 2003
