Description

We are back on the Cassavetes train! (But did we ever really get off it in the first place? Hmmm?) On this episode of Oeuvre Busters, and after taking a look at his two studio films, George and Liam discuss Cassavetes's Faces, from the turbulent year 1968. The film stars the magnetic Gena Rowlands, the senescent John Marley, the incandescent Lynn Carlin, and the Herculean Seymour Cassel. Things to consider: first and foremost, who knew that this film was a secret Mad Men prequel? My god, does Liam love Honey I Shrunk the Kids! Can George STFU about Johnny Staccato? Also, did Vin Diesel rip off Seymour Cassel? And welcome our new podcast hosts, Bird and Drill! Topics not covered in this podcast: Thomas Hobbes's critique of Robert Boyle's air pump experiments of 1659, and how these experiments gave rise to new and modern epistemological forms that we today recognise as "science."
