These three artists worked together for the first time in the 60's and built a relationship that would grow over the years to being loyal friends and some of the greatest of artistic collaborators.

GENA ROWLANDS and JOHN CASSAVETES and PETER FALK

"I met him at a Laker game and I was walking down the aisle to get a hot dog or something. We bumped into one another and it's like we recognized each other (…) John was teeming with feeling and emotion, and yet he was extremely intelligent. He was a wild animal." — Peter Falk, about John

"When I saw her, that was it! The first time I saw her in 1953, I was with an actor, John Ericson, and I said, ‘That’s the girl I’m going to marry.’" — John Cassavetes, about his wife, Gena

"I first met Peter Falk in 1969 on the set of a film called Machine Gun McCain. It was a good movie and a lot of fun to make with him. We hit it off and became good friends, Peter, John and I. That was the beginning of a long, close and very creative friendship. A very special friendship." — Gena Rowlands, about Peter

( Cassavetes directed his wife solo in 4 other films: A Child Is Waiting, Faces, Minnie & Moskowitz, Gloria )
