Zavvi - The Home of Pop Culture

Dual Format Edition containing the DVD and world premiere Blu-ray release of John Cassavetes’ astonishingly powerful 1968 feature, Faces, a film which has had a huge and lasting impact on independent filmmaking, evident in the work of Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee and Jim Jarmusch to name only a few.
Set in suburban middle-class America of the 1960s, Faces portrays the disintegration of a marriage with an honesty rarely matched in cinema.
Originally released when Cassavetes was a big name Hollywood acting star (The Dirty Dozen, Rosemary’s Baby) Faces was nominted for 3 Oscars – an unheard-of achievement for an independent film at the time.
