Eyes and things related to eyes appear frequently in Chinatown, glasses found in pool, the eye in the head of fish served by Houston to Nicholson at lunch, the flaw in Faye Dunaway's eye, the daughter's eyes sheilded from seeing her dead Mother, many others. Nicholson sees almost everything he runs across incorrectly. Hey, didn't Faye Dunaway star in the Eyes of Laura Mars?

  Jake Gites was a Bloodhound for mystery - he just had a nose for the stuff :-)

    Man with Knife: You're a very nosy fellow, kitty cat. Huh? You know what happens to nosy fellows? Huh? No? Wanna guess? Huh? No? Okay. They lose their noses.
    Jake Gittes: I goddamn near lost my nose. And I like it. I like breathing through it.

      Jake Gites' reply when asked if the (sliced) nose hurt.

        Mr. Polanski, himself, looking like he was having entirely too much fun playing an evil munchkin.

        In real life, Polanski was seeing the way too young girl at Nicholson's house and Nicholson was going out with daughter (Algelica) of Houston.

Yes, Faye did star in "The Eyes of Laura Mars". Boy, you picked up a lot of eye references I never would have thought of. Good job.
