Faces (John Cassavetes, 1968)

7/10
John Cassavetes movie from 1965 I think, first one of his I've ever seen. Kind of interesting "case study" almost about the dissolution of a marriage. It basically deals with a volatile couple that get into an argument and the night after the husband demands a divorce. It's a very weird movie and I say that having seen at least a few weird movies...everybody talks in non-sequitors and the actors are laughing throughout almost the entire movie, despite how much everybody seems to hate their lives and their surroundings. It was interesting and I'm glad I watched it but not something I'm really in a hurry to see again.
