I snagged the Criterion Cassavetes box on ebay for $50.  It's GOLDEN.

"Never Seen A John Cassavete Film"

The shame. But I'm not alone.

Wow!  I'm seriously surprised.

I've only experienced A Woman Under the Influence and The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, ages ago, I think I they could use a revisit and some JC company.

But I wish the public could, in the midst of its pleasures, see how blatantly it is being spoon-fed, and ask for slightly better dreams.
