Review of The Man Without a Face (1993) by Richard Harrington for Washington Post — 03 Aug 1996
In The Man Without a Face, Mel Gibson reminds us that he doesn't need one-liners and explosive special effects to warrant our attention. Gibson, as actor and first-time director, is not only self-assured in these dual roles, but he seems relieved to let the drama carry him, rather than the reverse.
The result is a movie that's both heartwarming and heart-wrenching.
