Critically acclaimed stage and screen actor
John Cassavetes is well known for his disregard of Hollywood's dominance over the film industry. In the early 1960's, Cassavetes fired up the independent filmmaking movement with self-financed movies including
Faces,
Husbands, and
A Woman Under the Influence. This 50-minute retrospective not only offers insight into those movies, among others, but chronicles Cassavetes rise to fame and off-screen personality. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
