You should check OpenCV :) it is a useful toolkit for this kind of thing and is implemented in Python, C, and C ++.

He also has some pretty detailed documentation from what I remember.

@William beat me up, but here are a couple of blogs linking to OpenCV with some Python code.

They are the best hits on Google for "python module face recognition". Hope this helps.

I do not discuss the answers given, but just want to point out that OpenCV is not the only option, for example, pyfaces is an approach / library based on its own foundations, specially designed to match the face. SimpleCV is also new to this scene, and I understand that it can be used for face recognition and recognition, although SimpleCV is not yet as strong or stable as OpenCV, but just wanted to point out other options that are worth exploring.
