Episode 8: MINNIE AND MOSKOWITZ (1971)


Listen Later

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.

In this episode, Allison and John discuss "Minnie and Moskowitz," the Cassavetes version of a Hollywood screwball comedy. Episode highlights include: singing, howling, mustaches, Val Avery and Tim Carey (who we love), out-of-control bodies, violence, love at first sight, a movie poster controversy, flowing golden hair, Martin Scorsese, "A Clockwork Orange," foreshadowing into future films, theater tricks, interpretive sticks, and so much more. Listen along as your hosts unpack this truly mind-boggling pseudo-romcom.

This podcast is recorded at Longmont Public Media in Longmont, Colorado. LPM rules! We couldn't do Love Streams without this amazing community resource.
