"Faces in The Crowd"

Hat-tip: io9

Wow, when was the last time someone put one of these things in theaters? The Law&Order/CSI/NCIS/CriminalMinds/etc TV world has pretty much gobbled up the entire "Here's an otherwise formula thriller built around this random obscure condition/persausion the writer just read about" genre of pitches, so it's kind of amazing to see Milla Jovovich - THE great B-movie starlet of our time - in "Faces in The Crowd;" as a woman whose stature as the only surviving witness able to identify a serial killer is imperiled by being struck with prosopagnosia or "face-blindness," meaning that her brain is incapable of recalling people by their faces.
