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"

Yes, Roman Polanski directed "Rosemary's Baby" and John Cassavetes was cast in the role of Guy Woodhouse. I thought JC did a very good in that role. And Roman Polanski is one of my favorite directors.

Cassavetes directing style just doesn't appeal to me.
