Husbands, the 1970 independent film by John Cassavetes starring the director, along with Peter Falk (Columbo) and Ben Gazzara is the first on my Dad After Dark list for anyone looking for a truly unique, independent film experience. It's a bold, unflinching look at the men of a certain time and place in American society, their macho pretensions, their midlife crises and, as always with Cassavetes, their struggle with identity and notions of love. See why the Independent Spirit Awards most beloved prize is The John Cassavetes Award. With the emergence of modern digital cinema cameras and an immediate access to audiences on YouTube, Cassavetes remains a major inspiration for up and coming directors for whom he blazed a trail. Starting with only his 16mm film experiments and an independent vision, he gave birth to the modern independent movement.
