A Third Face was completed by Jerome Henry Rudes, Fuller's longtime friend, and his wife, Christa Lang Fuller. “Fuller wasn't one for tactful understatement and his hot-blooded, incident-packed autobiography is accordingly blunt. A Third Face is a grand, lively, rambunctious memoir. ” – Janet Maslin, The New York Times. “Fuller's last work is a joy and an important addition to film and popular culture literature. ” – Publishers Weekly. “If you don't like the films of Sam Fuller, then you just don't like cinema. ” – Martin Scorsese, from the book's introduction.
