Gena Rowlands (1930โ2024) was a monumental figure in American cinema, celebrated for her intense and emotionally raw performances. She is best remembered for her groundbreaking collaborations with director John Cassavetes, her husband, in films such as 'A Woman Under the Influence' (1974) and 'Gloria' (1980). Rowlands' acting style was distinguished by its honesty and depth, portraying complex and vulnerable women in a way that resonated deeply with audiences. While some later generations might recognize her for her role in 'The Notebook,' her true impact lies in pioneering independent film and redefining the scope of female characters on screen. Over a career spanning decades, she earned two Academy Award nominations and received an Honorary Oscar later in life, establishing her as an โactorโs actor.โ These vintage portraits of Rowlands highlight her extraordinary range, intensity, and enduring presence, capturing the essence of a woman whose work continues to influence modern filmmaking and inspire actors around the world.

These go together.
The first is my film Oh Buster, Where Art Thou? About the life of Buster Keaton as told by his friends, family, fans, and historians. The second is the follow-up book with everything I couldn't get into the movie. It took 13 years to complete both.
The film is free to view on YouTube, the book is on Amazon.

Ein Film, der den Widerstand schon im Titel trรคgt: โThe Woddafucka Thingโ klingt wie eine Beleidigung, eine Geste, oder ein fettes Lachen ins Gesicht der deutschen Fernsehwirklichkeit. Gianluca Vallero hat 2022 eine Krimikomรถdie gedreht, die sich weigert, Krimi zu sein, und die Komรถdie gleich mit in die Luft jagt. Ein Film wie ein Schlagloch in der immer gleichen Asphaltstraรe namens โdeutsche Krimi-Landschaftโ. (ARD, TV-Premiere)
