John Cassavates' Five films on Netflix instant play!

Hidden Behind the Screen

almost 2 years ago

All the five films from Criterion’s five films box set are currently intantly watchable on Netflix instant play. So if you haven’t bought/seen any of them now’s a great time to! And if you don’t already have Netflix this is the best time. I know everyone here isn’t from the US, so sorry but I can’t contain my excitement.
I’ve come to love John Cassavetes after seeing Chinese Bookie and then Women Under the Influence (which is one of my new favorites)…
I still need to see Shadows, Faces and Opening Night…I’m debating which one to watch next… Maybe the reason this excites me so much is I could never see myself buying that set, though I might have to bring myself to now!
Just a side question:Which of those 5 films is your favorite?

Well, I already own the Five Films box set, so …

I’d recommend watching Faces next.

My personal favourite is Opening Night. The others are great as well, but Opening Night just hits a chord with me.

But about that snake in your boots … no I don’t care. heh

Definitely Faces, his second best next to “Woman.” Then Shadows, a glimpse of some of his earliest improvisational work, and then Opening Night. Just my recommendation.
