He's funny (check out almost any interview), and his movies are funny. I've seen a fair few, he's a raconteur definitely, one who's always struck me as interesting, witty and intelligent but also pretty earnest, contemplative and serious about his craft and the collegiate method he developed. As for his films, there's quite a bit of dark humour in Husbands, and maybe A Woman Under the Influence and even Opening Night but 'funny' is not the takeaway I usually get from a Cassavetes film - (I was genuinely intrigued). Horses for courses. It's not always a dark humor.. There's little things, comments to each other that are funny. Katherine Cassavetes is hilarious (John's mother)... "Coca Cola??? What is this Coca-Cola?"
"This baby is naked!!!" "Why do you wanna marry my son. He's a bum!"
