What is the matter with you?

[Humming]

She's gonna change!

Ooh, Dickie. Remember when we didn't

have to worry about our wives and kids?

Oh, God!

Yeah.

Phew.

Mmm.

Remember when we had

our own apartment...

and all the girls would

come up and see us?

And they'd mix drinks for us,

and they would cook us anything we wanted...

and then they'd give us their money

and go to bed with us.

- Don't you remember?

- It never happened.

Of course it did. Don't you remember

Connie and Julie and what the hell's her name?

- The one with the

- I don't know.

Oh, my God, Dickie! You're getting old

and gray, and I'm getting fat and gray.

What the hell's she doing in there?

Don't spoil it, Freddie. Please.

Spoil what?

Honey, I'm game for anything.

I just want to know

It's legitimate, isn't it?

I know I have to pay.

I'm not too schooled

You're shocked, aren't you,

old Dickie, old pal?

What do you think she is? You think she's

[Freddie]

My God, Dickie. You think you don't pay?

How many times a week

does Maria ask you for some money?

Money, Charlie, is a necessity. And don't you think

that you don't work for it and pay for it.

My God, wait.

What is this?

John Cassavetes

John Nicholas Cassavetes (; December 9, 1929 – February 3, 1989) was a Greek-American actor, film director, and screenwriter. Cassavetes was a pioneer of American independent film, writing and directing over a dozen movies, which he partially self-financed, and pioneered the use of improvisation and a cinéma vérité style. He also acted in many Hollywood films, notably Rosemary's Baby (1968) and The Dirty Dozen (1967). He studied acting with Don Richardson, utilizing an alternative technique to method acting which privileged character over traditional narrative. His income from acting made it possible for him to direct his own films independently.Cassavetes was nominated for three separate Academy Awards: Best Supporting Actor for The Dirty Dozen (1967), Best Original Screenplay for Faces (1968) and Best Director for A Woman Under the Influence (1974). His children Nick Cassavetes, Zoe Cassavetes, and Xan Cassavetes are also filmmakers. more…
