Life is full of "over-the-top" stuff. Then again, there are two different worlds; some live a tough life, and some live sheltered with no problems at all. He's showing a side I'm more familiar than some middle-class cliched manufactured emotions.

It just always seemed like the director Cassavetes was play acting. All that tough guy posturing. But I know some people who like his style, so to each his own...

I thought he was perfectly cast as the scheming, narcissistic husband in "Rosemary's Baby". He was excellent in the role.

He didn't direct "Rosemary's Baby" and didn't direct most of the movies he was in, except "Husbands" "Opening Night" "Love Streams" (after Jon Voigt couldn't do it after the play) and he does play a few minutes in "Minnie and Moskowitz"
