One of the most talked-about moments in David Cronenberg’s “Crimes of the Future” is the Ear Man. The character performs in an underground performance art show with his eyes and mouth sewn shut and his entire body covered in ears.
Alexandra Anger and Monica Pavez were the prosthetics co-designers behind the magic in putting 36 prosthetics pieces together on Tassos Karahalios, who played Klinek.
Anger explains that early discussions with Cronenberg had the character with two additional ears behind his real ears. “But then while we were in Greece, David had an epiphany and decided that he wanted ears all over his body,” says Anger.
The ears were made from silicone prosthetics. Anger says, “It became a discussion of how many ears. We would send it to him and he’d say, ‘Let’s try a few more. It kept going and going until it became, ‘However many you can get on him.
