फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Only for a specific audience. For me, this is a very good movie but it's just my personal taste. Many people won't like it. These are unlikeable characters, i mean, Cassavetes' character seems almost unredeemable and Falk character did something that can't be excused. Furthermore, it seems reasonable to me for a moviegoer to not find anything interesting here. But if you are looking for something different, something real/raw/honest and you haven't heard of Cassavetes, maybe you will like it too.
Friends, it ain't all that. It's watchable. Reasonably entertaining. Often feels like it's gonna go somewhere profound, though never does. Has lovely little moments. But it meanders, is unnecessarily technically inept (it was a major studio picture with people like the great Lucien Ballard involved) and somehow never has the courage of it's convictions. Cassavetes' similar film from the same period, 'The Killing Of a Chinese Bookie', is far better.
I don't dislike the film. It has a great 70's texture and plenty of lovable eccentricities, such as the brief musical 'score'( anyway you look at it, it doesn't work, but I sort of enjoyed it for that reason). There's one scene I really liked: Cassavetes walks into an all-night candy store (as a Brit, the concept of that alone excites me) and tries to buy ice-cream. Nothing worth really talking about happens, but it's quirky and entertaining. It's that kind of movie.
I'd wanted to see this for a long time. It's called some kind of misunderstood classic, lost work of genius, etc. I'm sad to say it's not. There's not really enough here for the running time and what is here is barely interesting. Lots of talking and improvising (despite what May says, I don't buy that this wasn't, in parts, largely improvised. There are too many nonsensical bits to be anything other than spur of the moment choices). Also, it's shockingly poorly edited, with loads of continuity errors, off camera dialogue to on camera closed mouths, poorly framed shots, out of focus inserts, freeze frames on details they forgot to cover, and even reused reactions. It's obvious that there was way too much film shot, no focus, and bad construction.
This is not some fabled hidden gem, but it's not a total waste. There are a couple of okay scenes and the bookend shots work nicely. Solid Meh.

- ट्रिवियाElaine May shot 1,400,000 feet of film for the production. A two-hour feature is just under 11,000 feet. This was nearly three times the amount of film that was shot for गॉन विथ द विंड (1939).

Mikey: [they have just climbed over the wall of a cemetery] I'm exhausted really, Nick. This is foolish. Nick, please. It's just foolish.
Nicky: Foolish?
Mikey: Frankly, I think it's ridiculous.
Nicky: You didn't like my mother?
Mikey: I loved your mother. I thought she was a wonderful woman.
Nicky: Why is it ridiculous to visit her grave?
Mikey: Because it's one o'clock in the morning.
Nicky: That makes it nicer.
Mikey: It doesn't make it anything, Nick. A grave is a grave. There's not a religion in the world that says a person's soul is buried with them in their grave. It's not your mother in there.
Nicky: You don't believe in any of that stuff?
Mikey: No.
Nicky: You don't believe there's anything after you die?
Mikey: Er, me personally, no. I believe you die and that's it.
Nicky: That doesn't scare you? To think that one day'll you die. You'll be over. You won't be anything, you won't know anything. Be nothing.
Mikey: Look, Nick, if you wanna visit your mother, let's visit your mother because this conversation is stupid.
Nicky: It isn't stupid. It's interesting - if you're gonna die.
Mikey: Well, I'm not gonna die so I think it's stupid.
Nicky: Yeah, well you are some day.
Mikey: Look, Nick...
Nicky: You're gonna die some day.
Mikey: I'm not gonna stand here at one o'clock in the morning and discuss what's gonna happen to me when I die. I mean, that mishegoss I leave to the Catholics.
[he walks off]
Nicky: Aren't you gonna die some day? Aren't you gonna die some day? Aren't you gonna die some day? I just wanna know, are you gonna die some day?
