Oeuvre Busters presents...

Talking about John Cassavetes's Husbands (1970)


Listen Later

On this episode of Oeuvre Busters, Liam and George discuss John Cassavetes's Husbands, starring Ben Gazzara, Peter Falk, and Cassvetes himself. First and foremost, do these guys know how to rage! But boy do things get cringe worthy really fast in this film, the first half of which is a masterpiece and the second half of which just won't end. Things you will discover while listening to this episode: the title of James Franco's next short story collection; the age at which your legs go; all the sports that Peter Falk loves; proper funeral etiquette; the meaning of Bahama underwear; and why LaCroix is the champagne of seltzer. Also, it's book report time! Topics not discussed in this episode: Virginia Woolf's use of free indirect discourse in Mrs Dalloway (1925) as a formal response to James Joyce's use of stream of consciousness in Ulysses (1922).
