Love Streams
John Cassavetes, USA 1984, John Cassavetes, Gena Rowlands, Seymour Cassel ⁄ color ⁄ 141' ⁄ ST - OND: FR - NL
Love Streams is unique in Cassavetes’ oeuvre – it is loosely adapted from a play by another writer, it features wild musical sequences and dream imagery, but none of the handheld camerawork associated with his style – and it was produced by notoriously trashy Cannon Films. Yet it is as deeply, searingly personal as anything he or anyone ever made. — Andrew Bujalski
