		A Woman Under the Influence by Barbara and Leonard Quart
		A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE is a love story of a troubled marriage between a working class man, Nick (played movingly by Peter Falk), and his wife Mabel (played with brilliant attention to emotional nuance by Gena Rowlands).
		Gena Rowlands as Mabel manages luminously to capture the strangeness of madness, a woman manically talking and grimacing to herself, angrily gesticulating to strangers in the street, and punctuating her speech with incongruous raspberries.

		Although I am neither a woman, an American, or even an adult, I feel it communicates a greater sense of "what it is like to be alive" than any other film I have seen.

	Cambridge Book: A Woman Under the Influence
		There's nothing to do with the dreams of women, or of woman as the dream, nothing to do with the quirky part of her, the wonder of her.
		But along the way, I'd have to look at myself and say, "Yes, we were successful in creating another horror in the world." I don't know anyone who has had such a terrible time that she doesn't smile ever, that she doesn't have time to love, open her eyes, think about the details of life.
		A Woman Under the Influence is a celebration of what makes us different from one another – different in every way: physically, imaginatively, socially, sexually.

	A Woman Under the Influence \| Reverse Shot
		A Woman Under the Influence was the greatest work of art I had ever seen precisely because it cared not about being a great work of art—and yet was.
		For Cassavetes, A Woman Under the Influence was a peak in terms of mainstream attention and critical respect, a product of its stealthy accessibility and of the progressiveness of American cinema culture in the early Seventies.
		After all, this is a film that treats its first fifty minutes like a preamble, a constantly rolling narrative without discernible shape or sustained conflict, with dozens of unnamed characters moving through confusing, unestablished spaces and then, at who knows what hour of the day, gathering to eat spaghetti in the bedroom.

	Film Review - A Woman Under the Influence
		In A Woman Under Influence, an insightful essay on sexual politics, Mabel is a housewife who crosses the line into sanity.
		Cassavetes never considered Mabel insane, just a woman who has her subjective way of perceiving the world, insisting on the validity of her feelings.
		A Woman Under the Influence was innovative in another major way.

		What is a body, am I its sovereign, how can I touch this man?

		John Cassavettes’s A Woman under the Influence shows us a man and a woman who are desperately dysfunctional, each in their own way, but makes no attempt to explain their behavior.
		What you get out of any movie is what you bring to it: Woman is not about a specific plot, but simply about these two people, and the more you know about life the more you’ll see what you know reflected in what’s going on.
		The woman is Mabel Longhetti (Gena Rowlands), a mother of three and wife to Nick (Peter Falk), a work-gang foreman.

		Many influences are apparent in Lerner's film: Roman Polanski (especially "Repulsion," "Rosemary's Baby" and "The Tenant"); Dario Argento, the Italian maker of horror films; the low-budget horror films that were produced in the United States in the 1960s.
		But this abundance of influences, which might have come across as mere copycatting by an educated and diligent student, does not weigh on the film; on the contrary, it infuses the film in a richly complex way.

	Long Pauses
		Gena Rowlands's performance as Mabel Longhetti, a blue collar housewife collapsing under the weight of mental illness, is the single most painful experience of my film-watching life.
		His brand of cinema verite forces us to look on helplessly, passively, as if we were just a few more strangers in Mabel's life, a few more strangers who refuse to stand up for her.
		The whole piece is worth a read (as is much of the other writing collected at his site), but I think Carney is at his best when he talks about the incestuous relationship between art, academia, and the cultural forces that shape critical opinion.

	A Woman Under the Influence movie Review at The Z Review UK movie review
		This is the psychological dilemma composed by director John Cassevettes (Shadows) and performed by Gena Rowlands (Hope Floats) and Peter Falk (Wings of Desire) in the classic A Woman Under The Influence.
		She is unaware of the ways in which self-consciously adult people interact with each other, and all the innocent things she does during the course of the party (like playing dress-up with the kids) are interpreted as the actions of a truly disturbed, possibly sick woman.
		The theory is that Falk`s behaviour is somewhat acceptable because he`s a macho guy, but an eccentric woman is dangerous, and that theory is not too far off the mark.

	A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE: THREE COLORS: BLUE, RUBY IN PARADISE
		One of the most overused examples of so-called "chick flicks" are when a woman (or women) come up against some kind of crisis, and take some kind of journey in response to, or because of, that crisis.
		I say overused because often these types of movies indulge in the hoariest cliches associated with "chick flicks." It's true, of course, that movies about men taking journeys can also be cliched, but they're hoary in different ways.

		John Cassavetes's long, free-form drama is best appreciated as a good showcase for Gena Rowlands, playing a woman whose sanity literally appears to be shattering as different aspects of her personality eclipse others at various times.
		John Casavettes directs "A Woman Under the Influence" with a naturalness (a Casavettes hallmark) that seems as if he were making a documentary film about his own family.
		As many probably know, Gena Rowlands was married to Casavettes and he utilized her in many of his films, all to his and his audience's great advantage.

	A Woman Under The Influence
		John Cassavetes 1974 film A Woman Under the Influence tries to supply an answer but the answer is unclear and the film can be viewed from different viewpoints.
		What is clear, however, is that Peter Falk and Gina Rowlands who play the troubled couple love each other deeply but cannot express their love in socially acceptable ways.
		In A Woman Under the Influence, Cassavetes supplies us with a mirror to see ourselves and many may not like the view, yet the film touches us in ways that cannot be expressed with words.

		A near life-size bronze, it shows a young woman on her knees reaching out vainly to a man being led away by another woman.
		Working under the spell of Art Nouveau and Japanese prints, she produced some fascinating small exercises like The Wave, in which a near abstract surf of marble/onyx rises above three capering nudes.
		But the Detroit show is frank in acknowledging the timidity, repetition and sheer mediocrity of some of her late work.
