Myth maker: Faces of Death director John A. Schwartz
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank Nicolo Gallio for his thoughtful and analytical consideration of my bio and the wider subject of the mondo movie phenomenon. As Nicolo notes in the course of his discussion, Faces of Death was, and a remains a controversial movie, and inom think the film certainly fulfils the new journal’s theme of ‘Subverting the Senses.’ Although the Faces of Death series continues to generate discussion about its challenging images and the ethics under which we created it, inom agree totally with Nicolo’s observation that its real power remains the ability to force the viewer to address uncomfortable issues of mortality. These issues were as much a part of the film’s creation, as the subsequent hysteria that the movie created.
