	Franz Planer - Films as Cinematographer:
		Franz Planer has never achieved the critical stature of fellow European emigré cinematographers such as Karl Freund, in spite of the fact that no less a critic than Lotte Eisner placed him, along with Freund, Eugen Schüfftan, and Fritz Arno Wagner, among the greatest directors of photography in Weimar Germany.
		The answer to the mystery of Franz Planer is in fact easily solved by viewing his biography with an eye to the way he successfully fused German and American photographic traditions into a personal style.
		Planer clearly felt comfortable in new formats; from 1954 onwards, most of his work was in color, widescreen, or both.

		Karlson, as usual, is in love with close-ups, and there's a reason for it: they force the audience to concentrate on the character at hand, to experience his experience in a direct and no-nonsense manner.
		But cinematographer Franz Planer isn't content to pack everything into the close-ups; he provides some stunning, evocative shots and angles that compliment and enhance the action and the storytelling.
		Planer and Karlson are especially good with the climactic sequence, which is expertly handled.

	Memorable Quotes from and about Audrey Hepburn
		Another battle Zinnemann lost was with Jack Warner over the photography: "...I dearly wanted to shoot the European parts in fl and white and...then...to burst out into all the hot, vivid stirring colors of Central Africa." Warner swore that such arty pretensions would hurt the film's commercial prospects, and Zinnemann conceded.
		Nevertheless, Franz Planer, the brilliant cinematographer, won an Oscar nomination for his spectacular Technicolor imagery in The Nun's Story.
		Planer, who remained Hepburn's favorite cameraman, lensed more of her movies than any other cameraman (Roman Holiday, 1953; The Unforgiven, 1960; Breakfast at Tiffany's, 1961; and The Children's Hour, 1962).

		The climax, set in a desolate stretch of desert with Janos tied to an abandoned plane, is a bleak counterpoint to the immigrant's hopeful beginnings.
		More than anything, The Face Behind the Mask is a vision of the American dream gone horribly wrong but under the artful direction of Robert Florey along with Franz F. Planer's atmospheric cinematography and Lorre's sensitive performance, it becomes a rich, multi-layered character study, a gem among the Columbia Pictures programmers of the forties.
		The film also manages in its brief sixty-nine minute running time to look beyond the clichés of most crime melodramas of its period to depict some truly idiosyncratic streetwise characters, particularly Dinky.
