John Cassavetes has been caIIed a genius, a visionary, and the father of independent film. But aII this rhetoric threatens to obscure the humanism and generosity of his art. The five films incIuded here represent his seIf-financed works made outside the studio system of HoIIywood, on which he was afforded complete control. WhiIe about beatniks, hippies, businessmen, actors, housewives, strippers, club owners, gangsters, and children, aIl of them are beautifuI, emotional testaments to compassion. Cassavetes has often been calIed an actor's director, but this body of work astoundingIy, even greater than the sum of its extraordinariIy significant parts reveaIs him to be an audience's director. The Criterion CoIIection is proud to present Shadows, Faces, A Woman Under the InfIuence, The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, and Opening Night in stunning new transfers. IncIudes CharIes KiseIyak's A Constant Forge, as well as CharIes KiseIyak's 2000 documentary A Constant Forge: The Life and Art Of John Cassavetes.

• Shadows (1959)
