Gazzara starred in two TV series ( Arrest And Trial and Run For Your Life ) in the ‘60s, but didn’t really find his niche until he connected with indie...

Cavett initially describes them as “three animals” and before long their behavior supports his claim. They were there to promote Husbands (1970), a film directed by the notoriously unorthodox Cassavetes and starring all three of them....

When I first saw Calvaire (2004) it haunted me for weeks. No matter how much I tried to forgot the film’s snow saturated landscapes, strange characters, unhinged violence and unsettling atmosphere I just couldn’t shake the movie from my memory.

1959, by Fred Kaplan. There are years so transformative, they stand out on name alone: 1492. 1776. 1968. On the surface, 1959 would not appear to be one of them. But 1959: The Year Everything Changed, by Slate regular Fred Kaplan, begs to differ. This was the year, after all, that Miles Davis recorded Kind of [...]

The third feature by Blaine Thurier , keyboardist for the Canadian indie rock band The New Pornographers , A Gun to the Head resembles nothing so much as a senior project by a film-school student who isn't quite as clever as he assumes.
