Yeah, no plot, no story.
There's a couple, and both think they don't love each other anymore, and in the end they're quite sure they don't love each other anymore.
What happened in the meantime?: almost nothing, they've been talking about some other topics (in that way Cassavetes is similar to Godard to me- and many movies with Marcello Mastroiani).

And, France and Switzerland are not communist countries, there's no "ministry of entertainment".
I don't think Goddard needed millions of francs to shoot a movie with basically two actors (a bout de souffle), in a tiny hotel room and in the streets of Paris.
(almost the same for Cassavetes)

For a self professed celluloid fanatic in his 40's this is verging on the ridiculous.

I look forward to the day when I finally see one of his movies.

That's me then.

I think the problem is he was such an asshole in Rosemary's Baby...."fuck you Man, I ain't watchin any of your films."

I just want to say...Great Thread! A wonderful primer on Cassavetes, thank you. This forum rules. Often.

I shall get me some Cassavetes this year, in honour of this thread.

Get Killing of a Chinese Bookie, Faces, and Woman Under the Influence. Those are his classics imo. EVERYONE loves Woman..

yeah, woman under the influence is one of the greatest films that i have ever seen.
