“My favorite actress is Gena Rowlands. I love her in the John Cassavetes film Love Streams. She’s estranged from her daughter, and she’s trying to reunite with her by making her laugh. The scene ends with Rowlands doing a backflip off a diving board. There’s something so heartbreaking about her need to connect. I might watch it again now.” - Ben Whishaw

"When I think about Cassavetes, I always feel happy. I feel glad that I like movies. I'm sure I will always feel this way until the day I die, and I intend to feel this way too. At the end of Love Streams, Cassavetes smiles as he sees the dog next to him, which turned into a naked man. I live my life always wishing I can smile like that." - Shinji Aoyama

"Yes, I'm drunk. And you're beautiful. And tomorrow morning, I'll be sober, but you'll still be beautiful."

I do have a soft spot for Gloria, and Faces is great, though I'm not sure how much of the credit for that goes to her. Woman Under the Influence is, I think, their peak reached in unison.
