Actually, it's pretty hard to see him at all. In literally every scene, every character's face is half covered in shadow, creating a veil effect. In one or two places this device might have made a clever comment on Gallimard's (and everyone else's) culturally induced blindness. Instead it just seems like nobody has enough sense to switch on a light bulb...

Onscreen, the opera singer's gender is never in question; his 5 o'clock shadow gives him away to everyone but the diplomat. Jeremy Irons tries manfully, and John Lone womanfully, to give real life to the characters, but the close-ups defeat them. So do some unlikely plot points: the defendant and his accuser are put alone to undress and wrestle in a police wagon; the diplomat daubs himself as Madama Butterfly before a rapt audience -- of French convicts...
