it's certainly true, the human face is the most interesting of all landscapes...people knew how to make close-ups more interesting then, as a microscope and not an emotional procedure. There's nothing telling us, or contemporary filmmakers, that we can no longer usee them the same way. Those are all beautiful stills from movies I either love or haven't seen yet. hail hail.
