but I just don't "get it", Opening Night is W-A-A-Y too long, a third of this could easilly be edited out(Spoiler) there's a scene at the start of Opening Night where a fan seeking an autograph is run over by a car outside a theater; this scene is borrowed chapter and verse by Pedro Almodovar in his film All About my Mother
The Killing of a Chinese Bookie is a gem; Ben Gazzara at his most lugubrious
3 x more to check out are "Husbands" and "Nicky and Mikey" which star John C. and Peter Falk
and "The Killers" stars John C., Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson, Ronald Reagan; while not directed by Cassavetes, this bit of vintage noir can be filed under: *So Bad it's Good*
