Possibly one of the best films ever made about the world of theatre, with Gena Rowlands in one of her greatest creations, in the role of an actress who falls into a nervous depression when an admirer is fatally run over next to her at the end of a premiere. A reflection on "comedy and life", in another of Cassavetes' fundamental films.
