    “A Woman Under the Influence” is one of the most captivating, “can’t leave your seat” films that I have ever seen. Gena gives a Tour de Force performance. You never knew where it was going, but the going was fascinating and tragic.

    This is an excellent commentary about John and those who knew him best, Gena Rowlands, his wife of many years, and those who worked with him.. It states how he directed in his own unique way. I always liked his acting but knew little about his directing until I purchased Love Streams.
    I remember always thinking as I saw a few movies that he starred in and thought he was a very handsome man and an excellent actor. I was so sad when I learned that he had passed.

    Unorthodox, a temperament/means of expressing himself, which left some confused, I think John was guilty of that. But, above all, what defined him was empathy. The reason John, Ben & Peter became close friends was b/c they all shared that same quality. This documentary makes that & a lot more quite evident
