Talking about John Cassavetes' Opening Night (1977)

from Oeuvre Busters presents...

On this theatrical episode of Oeuvre Busters, George and Liam discuss John Cassavetes’s Opening Night, starring Gena Rowlands, John Cassavetes, and Ben Gazzara, from the blockbuster-studded year 1977. Listen to the guys break out some terrible impersonations! Bono for Liam, Arnold for George. Other topics covered? Eugene O’Neill’s KFC addiction. (Ironically, this episode is brought to you by Popeyes! Looking to punish your colon?! Eat Popeyes!) Is this a film about alcoholism or the grim specter of death? Why not both? And surrealism! Topics not covered: how British enclosure laws in the 17th and 18th centuries and the creation of what Robert Brenner has called “politically constituted property” gave rise to modern capitalism as we know it today. Please make sure to review and subscribe wherever you can! We would greatly appreciate it.
