50 Years Of The Killing of a Chinese Bookie w/ Crue Scott Smith
Episode 4
Friday, 12 June, 2026

Today on the show I talk to filmmaker Crue Scott Smith about one of our mutual favorite Cassavetes movies: The Killing of a Chinese Bookie. We discuss the life and work styles of John Cassavetes, Ben Gazarra's performance in the film, the cinematography, and how the reception to this film has changed over fifty years. We also talk about the business of independent movies and Crue's new film Angel of Light, which is available now on VOD. follow and subscribe to the show on your favorite platform via the link below:https://linktr.ee/martynstrangeSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/martynstrange Hosted on Acast.
