Minnie and Moskowitz (1971)

Release Date : 22 December 1971
Rating : PG
Official Site : Movie Official Site

Overwiew :John Cassavetes paints another portrait of humans at dangerously fragile places in their emotional lives, but this time with a lighthearted comic touch. Moskowitz (Cassavetes regular Seymour Cassel) is a nutty parking lot attendant who decides to head for California. Minnie (Cassavetes's wife, Gena Rowlands) is a museum curator whose relationship with a married man hits a dead end, thereby forcing her back into the dating world. When Moskowitz protects Minnie from a desperate suitor, a relationship forms that is at first raucous and bitter; eventually, however, the pair begins to realize that their differences pale in comparison to their inexplicable need to be together. After a vicious argument, they decide to give in and attempt a genuine partnership. As with all of Cassavetes’s directorial efforts, this film isn't so much a traditional narrative as it is a series of seemingly insignificant moments that are at once emotional and strikingly honest. This is exemplified by the opening scene in a diner, where Cassel is hassled by a fellow customer, an off-the-wall individual who spouts beliefs and asks questions--that don’t fully resonate until the final credits have rolled.

Starring : Gena Rowlands, Seymour Cassel, Val Avery, Timothy Carey, Katherine Cassavetes

Directors : John Cassavetes

  Critic Reviews  Grade
www.channel4.com - : Minnie (Rowlands) is a museum curator just dumped by her married boyfriend. Moskowitz (Cassel) is a crazy parking-lot attendant who restores her faith in love. A rare studio picture for Cassavetes, and he takes the opportunity to have a dig at Hollywood and its phoney ideas of romance. He lets his two favoured actors do their thing, and they convey the tender story of two misfits acknowledging their differences and deciding, what the hell, to make a go of things. While not Cassavetes's best film, it is probably his warmest and most genial.  more...
