Opening Night
John Cassavetes, US, 1977, 144 min., OV + CS
A one woman show of Gena Rowlands, playing the role of the ageing actress Myrtle Gordon,
who is rehearsing her last play. This melodrama from behind the scene of a Broadway theater is 78 Cassavetes’ most self-reflecting film. Cassavetes staged and filmed it in front of a live audience as a film testimony about the life of an actor on the stage and off of it.
