Film Synopsis

John Cassavetes’ devastating drama details the emotional breakdown of a suburban housewife and her family’s struggle to save her from herself. Starring Peter Falk and Gena Rowlands (in two of the most harrowing screen performances of the 1970s) as a married couple, deeply in love, yet unable to express their love in terms the other can understand, the film is an uncompromising portrait of domestic turmoil. The film is a benchmark of American independent cinema—a heroic document from a true maverick director. 

Available only as part of The John Cassavetes: Five Films Box Set
