what a dirty mouth man....

John and his wife , were hard working entertainers… They do not make them , like that anymore !

Philosophy: philo means love of. Sophia means wisdeom. Philosophy is the love of wisdom. Philosophy is not the study of love, as Cassavetes asserts. With all due respect.

Such a wealth of inspiring comments about film-making from both Cassavetes and Rowlands. Bravi.

If the refrigerator-freezer is turend off for sound or whatever it must be turned back on after shooting. It was off all thursday, thursday night and friday and by the time I found it after work friday it was really horrible so please don't forget ☠ - Gena

I would advise John that the movie of the making of his movie, is 100 percent better than the movie. My God would I love to listen to Cassavetes and Tarr having a conversation. What a tragic loss at just 60 he was. Artistic intensity.

"We're making a picture about inner life. And nobody really believes that it can be put on the screen ... I don't believe it either, but screw it." - John Cassavetes

"I came across this quote from Japanese director Shinji Aoyama today: “When I think about Cassavetes, I always feel happy. I feel glad that I like movies. I’m sure I will always feel this way until the day I die, and I intend to feel this way too. At the end of Love Streams, Cassavetes smiles as he sees the dog next to him, which turned into a naked man. I live my life always wishing I can smile like that.” - A Darkened Room: Love Streams, writers William Boyle and Jimmy Cajoleas discuss John Cassavetes’s Love Streams.

Ms Rowlands gives multiple meanings and level perspectives in Cassavetes' films* She is wonderful*** No one else would sense his vision and temperament so well

Luv how he calls her jenna

Hes soo attractive

john & gena - 2 masterminds ❤️

It was really great!

Love in conflicting human relationships, love as a remedy for loneliness and anguish. As he says in the documentary: "All I'm interested in is love". Even if we are sometimes obliged to blacklist people because we find them too nihilistic. I love John Cassavetes. I immediately fell in love with his films, which are about real life.

I wish more directors had his attitude, him and Gena Rowlands were brilliant, I've been watching all his films recently but love streams is the one I haven't seen yet, I look forward to seeing it.

i thought he acted very naturally, unaffected

can anyone find out what camera this interview was shot on? or a comparable camera with this same feel?

❤️

Damn John comes off as a mad genius kind of man. He always seemed very intimidating and I’m not sure why. Polanski said he was a pain in the ass on Rosemarys Baby. I guess at 46:03 kinda of confirms it. Still a legend.

Most people laugh at just the word, Ketchup. HA!!!

Thank you very much

Dirty Dozen and Rosemary's Baby brought me here.

Estoy feliz de saber q voy a poder ver este doc cuando regrese a casa...mientras termino de leer el gran diario de filmacion de Michael Ventura !

Must be from 86/87.

Man as his WORK????

The more I learn about him, the more I’m fascinated with his work.

This film was made in 1984 and I believe Cassavetes died in 1989 from liver cirrhosis. In this clip he appears cachectic with abdominal swelling likely from ascites secondary to decompensated liver cirrhosis. He seemed like an amazing actor and director

Sweetest doc on life and love 🕯✨💕💜🐾 Thankyou John and Gena, always. 🌱

41:26 “I am ignorant but I have feelings”

4:05 he screwed up the interpretation of the word philosophy - it is philos (love) and sophia (wisdom).

After seeing Cassavetes' films, I can understand how the rest of the American cinema can feel like "fluff", as he says. “I don’t think a person can live without philosophy. What is philosophy? Philos in Greek means “friend” or “love”. “Love” and “friend” are synonymous. And the study of it is the study of love. To have a philosophy is to know how to love - and where to put it, because you can’t put it everywhere, you walk around - you’ve got to be a minister or a priest, say “Yes my son” or “Yes my daughter”, “Bless you”, but people don’t live that way. They live with anger, and hostility, and problems, lack of money, tremendous disappointments in their life - so what they need is a philosophy. I think what everybody needs is a way to say: Where and how can I love and be in love so that I can live, so I can live with some degree of ease…” - John Cassavetes,

"Wet the horses". 😄

- Stokholm...?!? And Jonas Mekas was born just across the Baltic Sea, in Lithuania...he should know how to spell Stockholm.

i love how he says bullshit after yelling cut :)

He was talented and intense I like the way he works and communicates.

"im in the middle of a rehearsal!" Hes EXPLAINING the scene to Gena. haha. Cassavetese was THE MAN.

here is the story of this documentary, an interview with michael ventura ua-cam.com/video/VL_7qKNl4OI/v-deo.html

8:43

He reminds me a bit of sid Cesar

did they just pull two fucking ponies from a taxi?

Was he being interviewed at the Cannon offices? That poster of Lou Ferrigno lololol

Such a wonderful film.

Thank You. This uploading should be an opening inspiration for all filmmakers, world widely.

Just before making Love Streams, a doctor told Cassavetes he had six months to live. He told no one. A beautiful man.

All individuals…none of them…is a kiss ass❗️ Gena you’re a Genius. Philos- In Greek…Friend or Love, Love & Friend it’s synonmous The term ‘Philosophy' is coined from the Greek words ‘Phylos’ meaning ‘to love’ and ‘Sophie’ meaning ‘Wisdom’. (Heera Kumar) People live with anger, and hostility and problems and lack of $$$, lack of…you know tremendous disappointments in their life. Where & how can I love? ❤️ So I can live with some degree of peace.💙 …analyze love, discuss it, kill it, destroy it, hurt each other…in that war, in that word polemic, picture polemic of what life is.🤍 What she thinks life should be, rather than what they think it should be. She calls her husband home, from work. She calls her daughter 🏡, from school…just to make them laugh❤️ Anyone who has eyes to see, can tell almost anything about your life…from watching you… 💛Mustard or Ketchup⁉️ I want that😆 She snorts w/ the real popcorn on a string…😛 Her line… “You let me finish because your a man who doesn’t say what you mean very well.” Small crew of whoever was terrifically interested and as a result you get a much finer crew. The emotions guard you. The sense of humor guards you. Saying, “The hell with Life guards you.” 30 yrs from now I can say I rode with ๖illฯ ȶɦɛ 𝕂Į𝒹.

My God they were beautiful!

Jhon è stato un regista coraggioso e moderno, al di fuori degli stereotipi hollyvoodiani, tanto moderno che è stato vicinissimo all'oscar perché un talento esce fuori anche se incompreso. Il mondo lo conosce per Rosemery Baby, dove si vede pochissimo ma il suo volto lasciò un segno speciale. Credo quello che lui odiava essere. I suoi film sono restati unici gioielli di nicchia. Meglio così. Solo pochi ne avranno accesso. Scavare nei sentimeni controversi è cosa difficile. Forse solo chi lo amava e conosceva a fondo avrebbe potuto farlo. Gena Rowland, una attrice e donna eccellente.

Beautiful Gena. Brilliant John.

Amazing

I love everything about this brilliant man… including his voice… What a bastard he must’ve been to work with. How privileged to be one who’s had the chance. 🎥 🎞
