When Anna Holm looks at aristocratic Torsten Barring, she sees romance. When Torsten looks at her, he sees horror: a web of scar tissue that twists her face into a grotesque mask. Eager to win Torsten's love, Anna endures 12 plastic surgeries and emerges a beauty. Lovely, says Torsten, but could you do just one more favor? Murder the little boy who stands between me and a vast inheritance. Joan Crawford takes a role Ingrid Bergman played in the original Swedish version and vividly makes it her own in this Hollywood remake pitch-perfectly directed by George Cukor.

Crawford is just villainous enough.

It is one of the most intensely dramatic stories in the cinema. [Full review in Spanish]

A Woman's Face remains a delightful dollop of dark chocolate for Cukor fans.

Joan Crawford, disfigured for her (and George Cukor's) art

Under Cukor's guidance, Crawford gives one of her least mannered performance in this noir remake of an Ingrid Bergman Swedish film about a woman whose scarred face has made her bitter.
