Small Feelings: The Films of John Cassavetes
We’re exploring the career of the great American maverick and provocateur John Cassavetes with a complete retrospective of his directorial features, from his breakthrough Shadows through to his final film Big Trouble.
Cassavetes' films were hugely collaborative, emphasising the actor’s role in exploring difficult characters and “small feelings” often ignored by the studio system. Created outside of this system, his films ultimately defined the idea of the independent film and expanded the possibilities of the medium.
This is the first time all of Cassavetes’ films have been exhibited together in Australia.
Every Thursday at 7pm from August 29 to November 14. Book now.
Faces is screening in the 130-minute director's cut.
The Killing of a Chinese Bookie is screening in the 108-minute director's cut.
