4 FACES is a film about four distinctly different people in crisis, and how each one relates and deals with his tangential relationship to God in that crisis. It was written by and stars Peter Mark Richman.  It was directed by Ted Post. "PETER MARK RICHMAN'S 4 FACES Is rich and engrossing, wonderfully written, acted and directed. Each of the four characters portrayed by this gifted actor appears as a complete and human being. It's as though you are witnessing four genuinely different personalities acted with great intelligence, wit and perception, by four different talented actors. It's remarkable." -- MARTIN LANDAU  "RICHMAN is indeed a rich man...he's written four great character studies and then acts them out brilliantly." -- ELI WALLACH
