35 - Gena Rowlands Tribute
Manage episode 436300005 series 3554274
Earlier this month, we lost one of the most important, innovative, and courageous actors in American cinema, Gena Rowlands. Gena left behind a collection of jaw-dropping performances and an unforgettable approach to her craft.
In this episode, co-hosts Nicholas Ybarra and Bella Efstratis discuss three of Gena’s memorable characters, all collaborating with her creative partner/husband, John Cassavetes.
- The boozy, gripping, mid-life crisis-induced Faces.
- The enigmatic fever dream called Opening Night
- Gena’s Academy Award-nominated performance in Gloria
Our producer, Sonja Mereu, also discusses perhaps her most famous role in A Woman Under the Influence in a segment we call Sonja’s Movie Minute.
