...build a sculpture around her aborted fetus. Suddenly he's besieged with commissions - but where to find more dead babies? As slick as it is sick, the movie could be Anwar's calling card for international employment, if only Hollywood moguls wanted something out of their own narrow range. The Forbidden Door is one more NYAFF example of what movies could be but rarely dare...

Pick up a pair of specs in a typical optician's, and they'll probably be too narrow or too wide. They might even pinch at the nose or behind the ears. That's because frames are traditionally built for a perfectly symmetrical head. And as everyone's ears, nose and cranium are uniquely shaped, off-the-shelf glasses fit few people perfectly...
