Memorable Facial Close Up Shots
I'm in the middle of assembling a video of close up shots in movies and, since I'm drawing blanks as to what else to include, I figured I'd ask you guys for suggestions. Here's a list of the films I already have:
The 400 Blows Apocalypse Now Battleship Potemkin The Blair Witch Project Brief Encounter The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari A Clockwork Orange Come and See Das Boot Dead Man's Letters Easy Rider Full Metal Jacket The Good, The Bad and the Ugly Gummo High Noon Ivan, the Terrible, Part 1 Paris, Texas The Passion of Joan of Arc Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid Persona Requiem For a Dream The Seventh Seal Sunset Boulevard Taxi Driver The Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Third Man Un Chien Andalou Vampyr The World of Apu |

If you need more extreme closeups, there's Janet Leigh's eye in Psycho after the shower scene or Denueve's eye in Repulsion (opening credits)

I'd add Martyrs (2008). The most important shot of the film. |

City Lights: the tramp holding onto a flower looking at the girl
The Shining: Here’s Jack! Jaws: the first reveal of the shark and Brody’s reaction Citizen Kane: Rosebud going into the fire Casino: the poor slob’s head in a vise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naaxJVRuGOQ |

I'm referring to a different close up, btw. It's the set of close ups during the Mexican standoff at the end.
The movie is not one of my favorites but the music is superb! Especially the last two cuts: The Ecstasy of Gold and The Trio (the scene you are referring to). |

Since I haven't seen it yet, which shot are you referring to?

Re: Memorable Facial Close Up Shots
There are hundreds. Westerns are particularly good at these shots like Leone's shots of the bad guys. Kurosawa's 'Stray Dog is the one that pops into my mind though:

I’d imagine it’d be one at the very end - curious now if I’m wrong @Morphy.

Also, looks like I need to watch Martyrs.

No, I keep all the movie edits I make on my computer (I save them to Google Drive though) since I don't want to deal with copyright. Otherwise, I'd definitely post them online. For instance, I remember making a silent film stunt actor montage I really enjoyed that I would've liked to publish (sadly though, I lost the video years ago).
