Having already established himself as an actor, he struck out as a filmmaker in 1959 with Shadows , and proceeded to build a formidable body of work, including such classics as Faces , Woman Under the Influence , The Killing of a Chinese Bookie , and Gloria . In Cassavettes on Cassavettes , Ray Carney presents the great director in his own words--frank, uncompromising, humane, and passionate about life and art. About the Author: Ray Carney is Professor of Film and American Studies and Chairman of the Film Studies Program at Boston University. He is the author of over ten books, including the critically acclaimed The Films of John Cassavetes .
