Welcome back to Love Streams: The John Cassavetes Podcast! In this podcast, a filmmaker and a film studies scholar (who happen to be married to each other) unpack, marvel at, and puzzle over the movies directed by American filmmaker, John Cassavetes, one movie at a time. Dear Listenership: Please know that I (Allison) often take about a million years to edit these episodes because it really does take quite a bit of time to cut our very long recording sessions into a sensible episode. However, on this sacred Valentine's Day weekend, I pushed myself (and my computing hands) to the limit so that I could get this episode out to you ASAP. Seriously, this is my fastest episode turnaround ever, and I did it because I love you, Listenership. Highlights of this episode include: hauntings; the mustache of Meade Roberts (no relation to John, unfortunately); the mustache of John Tuell; how much Allison misses Val Avery; Kentucky Fried Chicken; humiliation; more family systems; Gene Clark; depressed-happy-sad-happy-the-other-way-happy; opposites and contradictions and paradox; Blondie; and so much more. This podcast is recorded at Longmont Public Media in Longmont, Colorado. LPM rules! We couldn't do Love Streams without this amazing community resource. Want to learn more about us, or get in-touch?
