Welcome back to "Love Streams: The John Cassavetes Podcast," a show in which a filmmaker and a film studies scholar (who just happened to be married to each other) unpack the movies directed by American director, John Cassavetes.
In this episode, Allison and John unpack Cassavetes' directorial debut, "Shadows" (1959), and dear sweet God, do they talk about a whole heck of a lot! Episode highlights include: the secret longings of the Cassavetes Man; jazz; a perhaps-too-long discussion of experimental cinema; Ray Carney's very hot take on 1950s television; a fun anecdote about how Cassavetes inspired (and also perhaps reviled) the Beats; more jazz; unpacking Cassavetes' own interpretation of "Shadows" (which is slippery as always); activities that are supposed to be sexy but are actually extremely boring; and an extremely long discussion of race. Seriously, there's so much packed into this episode, so take a seat on your most comfortable couch, pull out a Costco-size box of Ritz Crackers and a Costco-size bag of Babybel cheese wheels (this pairing may or may not be what Allison ate for few days while editing), and enjoy this episode!
