What The Man Without a Face Is About
A former teacher with a badly burned face, shunned by his town, agrees to tutor a boy who wants to get into a military academy. The town is unsettled by the arrangement. The film's real subject is how rumour operates: nobody knows anything and everybody assumes something. The narrative delivers that pressure not through the boy but through the man's inability to defend himself. It is Mel Gibson's first film as director, and he takes the lead. It is Nick Stahl's first film, adapted from a novel. Before watching: for viewers who avoid the director's work because of the antisemitic and racist remarks recorded in later years, this is one of his films. Some elements of the novel are also softened here.
