  Just Another Face in the Crowd, Indistinguishable Even if It’s Your Own - New York Times
She can recall a name or a telephone number with ease, but she is unable to remember her own face well enough to pick it out in a group photograph.
Face blindness can be a rare result of a stroke or a brain injury, but a study published in the August issue of The American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A is the first report of the prevalence of a congenital or developmental form of the disorder.

The face most likely to stand out in a crowd is an irate one, according to a new study, and men are better than women at picking up the anger that a face conveys.
Among the four or eight neutral faces was one picture of a man or woman, eyebrows raised, eyes wide open with the whites visible, lips pursed — obviously a person who was terrified.
The time required to pick out the face of a woman, whether angry or frightened, increased with the rise in the number of photographs from four to eight.

 DVD review of Face in the Crowd, A - DVDTOWN.com
"A Face in the Crowd" was one such message picture, a fl comedy about the rise and fall of a pop-culture media star that offered moviegoers a chance to ponder some ideas they might never have encountered on commercial TV, where sponsors had to be appeased and conservatism was the rule of thumb.

 Movie Info for A Face in the Crowd on MSN Movies
The meteoric popularity of Arthur Godfrey was allegedly the basis of the 1957 drama Face in the Crowd.
Written by Budd Schulberg, Face in the Crowd was not a success, possibly because it hit so close to home with idol-worshipping TV fans.
Its reputation has grown in the intervening years, not only because of its value as a film but because of the novelty of seeing the traditionally easygoing Andy Griffith as so vicious and manipulative a character as Lonesome Rhodes.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Martin Luther
The Bishops of Merseburg and Brandenburg issued their official inhibitions; the theological faculty of the leipzig University sent a letter of protest to Luther not to meddle in an affair that was purely Carlstadt's, and another to Duke George to prohibit it.
This was done, in the face of vehement opposition now manifesting itself, at the Diet of Worms, when the young newly-crowned Charles V was for the first time to meet the assembled German Estates in solemn deliberation.
Charles, though not to be ranked with the greatest characters of history, was "an honourable Christian gentleman, striving in spite of physical defect, moral temptations, and political impossibilities, to do his duty in that state of life to which an unkind Providence had called him" (Armstrong, "The Emperor Charles V", II, London, 1902, 383).

 MMI Movie Review: A Face In The Crowd   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
That's why my video pick for the week is "A Face In The Crowd," Elia Kazan's 1957 film about a guitar-playing Arkansas hobo’s ascent to media star and king maker.
Pop culture hindsight has made the 50s into an era of Happy Days and innocence, but Kazan and screenwriter Budd Schulberg were very much alive and in the thick of it, and "A Face In The Crowd" remains remarkably timeless in its cynicism.
Speaking of remarkable, the Face In The Crowd is played by the pre-Mayberry Andy Griffith, showing an acting range from pitiful to menacing he would never again duplicate.
