NICK: Why, do you think I went too far?[laughs] It's a good question, and when you're dealing with a true life story, and certainly one where people's emotions are inflamed by the story, there's a lot of people that want you to tell their story their way.
NICK: Well, the first thing is, it's the filmmaker's responsibility to tell the audience, "This is going to happen," and then at the same time make them hope that it doesn't.
NICK: I think that, when I was growing up, films were boxy, waxy, there were certain rules you had to follow, you could only cut a certain way, everything had to match right, and now there's no more rules.

The son of the late auteur extraordinare John Cassavetes, Nick rightfully earned his credentials by writing and directing last year's " Unhook the Stars ", which wonderfully showcases his mother, the radiant Gena Rowlands.
The foremost thing I would say about working with Robin and Sean is that they were devoted to this project and devoted to their characters.
Basically what you do as a director is you talk to your actors, set up the situation, set up the moment, and talk to them until they say, "Nick, I don't want to listen to you anymore." And then you talk to them a little bit more.

Meanwhile, in the hospital's ICU, John's wife and son, and all the doctors and nurses, are somehow unaware that hostages have been taken in another part of the building until a sympathetic police negotiator (Robert Duvall) comes to ask the wife to talk John down.
When she refuses, Cassavetes inserts a pregnant pause so you can cheer without missing any dialogue.

 SPLICEDwire | "The Notebook" movie review (2004) "The Notebook" review, Nick Cassavetes, Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams
I cannot believe I'm about to recommend a movie as clogged with melodramatic treacle as Nick Cassavetes' adaptation of "The Notebook" -- a self-serious soap opera by novelist Nicholas Sparks, who never met a romantic cliché, dramatic contrivance, transparent plot point or insipid line of dialogue he didn't love like a dog in heat.
Even more outwardly trite than the author's "A Walk to Remember" and "Message In a Bottle," this story is about a beautiful, privileged Southern debutante falling in love with a young, earthy mill worker in the small town where she spends the summer of 1940.
The fact that director Cassavetes (Rowland's son) nurtures his actors into such affecting performances goes a long way toward offsetting his complacency in the script's cursory style.

James Garner, Joan Allen, Ryan Gosling, Rachel McAdams, Sam Shepard and Gena Rowlands —; mother of the director, Nick Cassavetes — all do a fine job with the trite but occasionally moving story.
But its glossy commercial romanticism couldn't be further in spirit from the edgy fare the filmmaker's late father — John Cassavetes, a pioneer in cinéma vérité— was famous for.
Still, Nick Cassavetes transcends this saga, doing a lovely job directing his mother in some heart-wrenching scenes.
